[QUOTE="JacketOff, post: 998844, member: 4572"] How many times can you say “the effort wasn’t there” before it becomes concerning? Once? Fine. Everyone has bad games where they take a result for granted. Sometimes you can even win a game with poor effort Twice? Okay what’s going on. [I]Why [/I]is the effort not there? Is it because of the opponent? A tough stretch of hard games has worn everybody out? Is there a team leader with a bad attitude? Three times!?!? Are practices the problem? Too intense? Not intense enough? Is the locker room divided? Has the coach lost the team? We’re well past 3 times that CDS has specifically called out the effort at this point in the year. Something is clearly wrong and not working. I didn’t even watch the game because I’m so checked out for the rest of the season after some of the piss poor results we’ve gotten. Maybe this group of players isn’t what CDS wants to run his system with, but it’s the group of players he’s got. It’s his job to have them ready to play. If he’s calling out their effort level multiple times, at least [B][I]some [/I][/B]of the blame has to go to him. I hope we can find a way to win some more games down the stretch, maybe even one in the ACCT, but it’s not a good look right now. I hope CDS succeeds, I like him and think he fits in well at GT and in Atlanta, and clearly he’s a good basketball coach. But something has to give here soon, or we’ll be paying yet another coach to [I][B]NOT [/B][/I]coach here. [/QUOTE]
