UD actually set some good ball screens early on...that I have been screaming for all season...then it went to hell in a hand basket.
This team doesn't have the players to effectively run this offense against decent competition.
Worst part about the offense...wasn't the man to man offense...it was the absolute inability to attack a 1-3-1 zone and play basic basketball....
The chuck it 3 ball offense against a 1-3-1 is a no go with this team. Turnovers killed them. Auburn threw some pressure on them and UD had unforced errors...that hammered them. They made some runs due to defensive pressure, but even when they cut it to single digits, it wasn't even that close.
I know those that disagree with me are going to state this has to do with inexperience and AG needing his players...sorry charlie...I know it is early, but the talent it will take to run this offense is going to be hard to come by. The lack of fundamental design with the offense worries many people...it doesn't give these guys the best opportunity to succeed. Will it in the future? Maybe.
Not upset about the loss as there will be many more this season. But this is more than youth or talent...
