[QUOTE="MtnWasp, post: 977883, member: 4110"] There is some talent. They just don't know how to play. Kowacie Reeves has been more productive than I expected. My impressions of Abram are the opposite. He is important and for him to explode on the launch pad is a huge blow to the team. If Sturdivant was going to be able to be a winning PG, he would have done it before now. Thus, we have a PG issue. The Ndongo injury set us back some. The play of Miles Kelly reminds me of the play of Devoe after Alvarado left. Next in line to be "Da Man," hasn't been able to produce like "Da Man" yet. Gapare has plenty of talent but he is Solo Poole-level wild. Stoudamire mentioned multiple times about getting some resistance from the players. It is evident. They don't yet understand what he means by playing hard and with an attention to detail. I don't know if enough of this crew ever will. So, I may actually agree with Peacone (for the first time EVER) that this may be a long year. Stoudamire is going to have to recruit more tough minded kids. The questions I have is are there enough of those out there and how long will it take to fill a roster with them? But our present coach is not one to scheme around weaknesses. He'll ride this crew to oblivion trying to get them to play hard, sound, NBA-Lite style basketball. But Tech fans shouldn't complain. They just had a coach that tried to scheme around weaknesses and the fans didn't like him because they couldn't accept the weaknesses. Stoudamire won't accept the weaknesses either. So I see a lot of year to year roster turnover with this coach as he freely searches for guys who will have a single-mindedness that suits Stoudamire's vision of what a successful basketball player looks like. He'll chase guys who don't buy-in. If it doesn't work, Stoudamire will move on pretty quick. GT will never have to fire this guy. Krzyzewski took several seasons to establish his nutty-competitive culture before Duke started to win big. At least five seasons if I recall. [/QUOTE]
