Jay said the problem was shot selection out of overconfidence. We're jacking up too many long shots because we think we can make them. We can, but not at a high enough percentage where it's not worth it to keep trying to find a better shot. Too many rushed shots early in the shot clock. It's Jay's system, but when it doesn't work, it's ugly.

I think the team will be fine, but that's 2 out of 3 performances that weren't very good.

If Pinkston and Ochefu played for other coaches they would be combing for 30 points a game. Those kids can get us points in the paint. Trust me. Jay's offense just doesn't give them the opportunity.

There is a saying at Villanova now, "Shoot 'em up and sleep in the streets." I like it, but when you are shooting under 30% from 3 game after game, time to find a new motto.


Guy can't coach his way out of a paper bag :D
