WBB v NC St

[Bardman]

Never have a I seen such a poor performance. I understand shots not going in…but.
1. Poor shot selection.
2. Missed shots tight under the basket.
3. TERRIBLE defense. That is controllable- effort, hustle, communication and a desire to stop the offensive player.
CJW’s stubbornness is showing by keeping Nyla on the floor. She really appears to have regressed in all facets of the game.

At the risk of being called an "attacker" again, It's very obvious Walz has dropped the ball with this roster. This is by far his worst team I think in his Cards coaching history.

He better go back to the portal because this group of freshmen were severely overhyped.

It will have to be a total turn around for this team to avoid a losing season.

I agree. There is more that needs to happen in basketball besides offense. Where has understanding the game by some of today's athletes gone that causes them not to put in the work and effort. In time the freshmen should progress. My biggest disappointment with this them is the upper classmen's performance todate.. This beatdown by NCst will just be one of many if this team does not see the ight.

If you are in Yum watching them play, coaching is not their only possible issue. Understanding your scouting report and, using it and giving effort is an issue. This team and previous teams are not playing the defense we are used to getting from the women's team. Many are quick to blame the coach. No coach in America teaches their players to play badly. If you can't carry over to the game what you learn in practice then that is on the player. In most sports you get what you earn.

I'm not criticizing Walz's coaching, it's his recruiting that has been poor. Nine freshmen is way too many. He messed up big time only getting one transfer and it's showing.

I think he was leaning on his experienced trio of returnees but they all have been, well let's say, not very effective.

I think Cochran should start but not Harris. Go small and play fast. Take 30 3's like the men do, because what he's doing now is not working.

I would disagree with sitting Harris. Harris is way more athletic than Cochran and hustles a lot more when on the court. She is also a better rebounder. To me, Harris's problem is she has no confidence in her midrange jumper and always wants to drive on her defender instead of taking the jumper.
