Re: Johns Hopkins 2022
So here's Doc's list of coaches who have had multiple sub-Final Four years of late, yet have made Final Fours when they have the roster.
Desko, Petro, Tierney, Tambroni, Toomey, Nadelen, Corrigan, Marr. Don't you think that it's just a tad absurd to say think that the sport has passed them all by....? Is your ego THAT big, Doc?
Yes, Doc. You know more about Defensive play that Dave Pietramala. What was I thinking? Make sure you get your groundbreaking, cutting edge defensive schemes to the Hop AD before it's too late.DocBarrister wrote: ↑Mon Apr 04, 2022 6:24 pm Same for Petro’s defense. The entire premise is outdated. The notion that stick technology makes attempted takeaways imprudent and not worthwhile? Just watch the Hopkins O (or the Hopkins D on their better days) and you know that’s not true.
In fact, aggressive defensive play is more important than ever because of stick technology. Petro’s defensive schemes called for giving opponents bad-angle, off-hand, or 15+ yard shots and relying on the goalie to save those. But you just can’t let opponents take those shots cleanly anymore. Stick technology allows harder, faster, more accurate shots.
You haven't watched Syracuse or Hopkins play. Yes, you CAN let those players take a free shot, Doc. They can't hit the broad side of a barn. It's one huge reason both teams keep losing.DocBarrister wrote: ↑Mon Apr 04, 2022 6:24 pm Players are more athletic. You can’t let anyone take a clean shot anymore.
You know who you can't let take a free shot? Maryland. They're shooting 40% as a team, Doc. And you hilariously want to put these numbers on coaching. Because Milliman is telling your players to keep shooting wide by 5 yards when they shoot. They're at 27% as a team. Gee, why are they losing?
Great. Then it should be easy for you to name multiple Final Four Hopkins squads that didn't have elite talent.DocBarrister wrote: ↑Mon Apr 04, 2022 6:24 pm Just not as simple as you make it out to be, a fan.

Hopkins was down five with less than four minutes to go but swinging ball around on perimeter for much of shot clock .
No sense of urgency. What was up with that?

Of course the teams that win have talent, but what you initially said was that the current players are not talented enough to do what the coach is asking. Without actually knowing what the coaches are asking its tough to know how absurd that statement is, but its on the scale.
Regarding Doc's assertion that the game has passed DP by - the answer is no. Sure, he could tell the kids to play more aggressively, but that leads to getting beat more often and a more up tempo game, which, did not/does not play to the overall strength of his team. And, a 15 yarder (almost a 2 pointer) should be saved if you have a decent goalie. The goal looks mighty small from the 2pt arc (trust me) and you lose if those are the bulk of your shots. I do not see the issue with that approach.
Re: Johns Hopkins 2022
Oh totally. Milliman isn't telling his goalie to keep the ball from going in the net. Or telling his players to put the ball past the goalie and into the net when they shoot. Or telling his faceoff team to win those draws. Or telling his D to clear the ball cleanly.CrookedJay wrote: ↑Mon Apr 04, 2022 9:17 pm Of course the teams that win have talent, but what you initially said was that the current players are not talented enough to do what the coach is asking.

And when there's a loose ball? I heard Millman is telling his team NOT to pick up that GB.
Is that true? Because if it is, boy.......I think you need a new coach if you're looking to win more games.

You have to have the players to win, but you can't discount coaching.
For instance, I think this Hopkins team should basically focus on fundamentals right now. Practice ground balls, clearing, and ball security. Concentrate on not beating yourselves. Don't make bad passes through traffic. Don't force it. Let the game come to them. Let it flow.
Have fun.

Of course, that's not what I wrote. What I wrote was Hopkins players are not talented enough to run a pick and roll, dodge or pass better than the opposing team. It's why they keep losing. The other teams they are losing to have better players.

But the context of my conversation with Doc is among coaches who have already made it to Final Fours. In some cases, MANY Final Fours. Proven coaches....many are going to the HOF.
They're already a proven commodity who have proven...again, in many cases multiple times.....that if you give them the players, they're gonna win a ton of games, and make Final Fours.
So IMHO, it's absurd to claim that the reason that Tierney, Petro, Desko, Corrigan, Toomey, and Tambroni haven't made Final Fours of late is because every single one of them got a case of the "Coaching Yips", and are all "coaching wrong". They simply don't have the horses to do it.
Back to discussion of current games......apologies for the thread drift...
