This is one reason I'm strating not to get on these kinds of sites anymore. I realize the cupboard he inherited isn't empty, but it could be more full. It's easy to see the guys are still trying to find who they are as a team. At times they look confused, and at times they play very well together. Last night, they simply made bad mistakes, and didn't take care of the ball at all. You can't make an illadvised pass from half court every time you get it there. You're not going to blow an opponent out (even if they are 0-5) if you turn the ball over nearly 20 times, it's just that simple. There will be nights where shots won't fall, and last night was one of those nights. Not bad shots, a few forced ones, but overall, they just weren't falling. I'm glad to see it happened against Stony Brook than UNC or IU. Give the man time. It's still early, and they're still searching for their identity as a basketball team. They'll struggle, and they'll disappoint, but not everyone can win a National Title in their first year as head coach like Tubby did (not bashing Tubby, I thought he was a great coach). We just need to be patient, as hard as that may seem, and let the coaching staff work through it.

And as far as Gillispie yelling and running back and forth on the sidelines, so what if he doesn't do it. I don't see Coach K yelling til he's blue in the face either, and he seems to have done fairly well in Durham.
