As I understand the contract, the buyout of that salary commitment is 75% at the end of this year and 60% at the end of next year. For a P5 revenue program that is not a lot. For GT which just turned over its football staff it may be too much. At least for this year. We'll see.
I fully expected some random starting and substitution patterns early on in the season with this d. I will be honest I didn't expect to see us dump both of our PGs from the starting lineup halfway through the ACC season. Substitution patterns have been "random" as well - and not always based...
I agree with your bottom line but question whether you give more money for assistants unless both sides are committing for multiple years and there is going to be turnover on the current staff. Will be tough to upgrade the staff if CJP is on a one year put up or else basis
Support staff is an...
There are a lot guys who are catch and shoot skill set. They are really valuable on most teams. Our issue is we don’t do anything to help him. Force switches or space things so his defender has to go help. He is a Morrow type shooter not a Jack bucket getter - and that is not all bad
Howard doesn’t even look to make a pass to any cutter. All he is looking for is who he’s going to hand the ball off to. You can’t run the offense that way. In my humble opinion, he would be a decent pick and roll guy, but that is it in our arsenal. It would also help space the floor for our...
I wouldn't argue with you at all about Josh engaging and thanking folks who are around the program and the major boosters. He is a bubbly, likeable and guess I'll say it again engaging guy. And I have no doubt he is a tireless worker. My personal opinion is that he is a likeable guy who...
I take your point - and in a perfect world GT should be able to supply everything he needs. But if I am the AD I am going to hand him the phone and say which donor should we call to fund the things you want (not arguing with what he wants). My point being that if the donors are not willing to...
Interesting that GP on the other site said the play was for Franklin to get a pass and drive? I didn't see that as he was coming hard for the block but maybe he was supposed to fake to the block and go back to the line and get a pass? At this point all I know is it didn't look like everyone...
Given the seemingly random approach CJP has to his substitution pattern I can sort of understand coming in with all guns blazing. Not sure when you are going to get your next chance. Doesn’t make it right just means I kind of understand it
For end of game scenarios I kind of like to do something either different than my base OOB play or at least a counter to the base OOB play. Something the other team hasn’t seen. So at one level I am ok with the unusual box set. On the level that counts though I agree with you it was a cluster
I thought it was an iso play for Franklin on the block. Box inbound set. Guys on the block cleared out to the corners and the 2 at the foul line break down with Franklin coming to the ball in what looked like a flat set which is usually an iso play for a big on the block. Franklin couldn’t get...
This is actually one of the better matchups for us. Notre Dame is a three point focused team and our defense is pretty good against three-point shooting. Notre Dame is not going to exploit any weakness we have in the paint.
Question will be, can we score with them because they will score
I guess I wasn't clear enough but I do think there is a problem with our base offensive set. Not to say we don't have issues with the consistency of our effort running it or the fit with the skills of our 5 spot - but we have a fundamental problem with the spacing of the set. When we run the...
Part of a coach’s job - especially at the ACC level - is to be able to whip the fan base to get the minimum level of resource he needs to be successful. It isn’t a passive activity where he simply sits in his office and deals only with players. To be clear I don’t expect a coach to raise $50 M...
By "it" I meant the normal Zoom offense run by Michigan and others. Not our offense. I tried to set out the differences between the normal Zoom offense and what we run.
