Haha... It wasn't just me, btw, but let's start putting out our keys to get back on track. Regardless of our feelings for Fox, we all want to support the DGDs playing for our university. For me:
1. Shorten the bench.
Pg Turtle gets 30mins/game.
Hightower and Crump split at 5mins each at point unless 1 is hot, the other then sits.
2g - Harris gets 27mpg - he started 20games last year. We can't do a hodgepodge.
Turtle and Crump split the 13mins here.
3 - Hammonds is still our best option here for 25mins. But Fox gotta motivate him. JP gets 15mins here, not at the 2.
4 - Yante 32 mpg
If playing well, Clax can move from 8 mins to 12,reducing Yante down a bit for rest. No Edwards.
5 DO gets 25mpg
Edwards gets 15,but less if the gym is at normal temperature.
If I counted right, that is still 10 guys, but we need night by night to go with the hot hand. Sometimes Crump may be hot, sometimes a matchup allows Hightower to stay in the game.
But out are Wilridge, Kang, and the other bench guys. 2 of those guys I mentioned may play only sparingly depending on matchup.
CMF has to be a better motivator. Something isn't working and it could be our team leaders aren't leading or on the same pagecas CMF... But that has to change. This is on CMF to change what's wrong.
The other coaches need to step up and be heard. At this point, whether or not CMF is on the hot seat or not, the bench coaches are also fighting for jobs. If CMF is not hardheaded and "the smartest guy in any room", he needs to use his assistants' advice.
What do you need to see moving forward?
