Millers lack of patience is whats bothering me most. A couple of those guys on last years team should still be here. Green should be getting Mcknights minutes as well.

Guess I'm more frustrated Mcknight at this point tbh. He doesn't deserve all the minutes he's getting

Miller is in absolute love with the guy. I think he’s a good player but I’m frustrated with him too. He isn’t any better than last year, in fact I think he’s regressed, and he’s not a leader. I feel that as the lead guard you have to be a vocal and tough leader, and he’s not that. He’s a quiet, nice, introverted person. That’s fine, it’s who he is, but it’s not great for this team.

Green should not be getting McKnight's minutes.
He's the best PG on the team. He's not getting replaced, but he does need to play better.
IMO, he should be shooting much more.

McKnight and Foster don’t have a quick enough release and they hesitate to shoot when a defense is closing. The
We just continue to work our little weave at the top and are rushed into a crap shot as the clock winds down.
I saw a play last night where McKnight shot faked and got his man in the air. At that point, either step in and draw a foul while the guy comes down, or side step and take a shot. He did neither

For an immediate action, a "players only" meeting before going to Chicago to face DePaul. These "student athletes" know the situation; results must come from the five on the floor + bench. Is there "leadership in the locker room" with this squad?

This years team doesn’t have an ability problem. It has a mental toughness problem. I don’t like their chances against any team that is mentally tough, no matter how they compare to others in regards to ability and talent.

Just for one game, but Foster/Conwell/Hunter/Maddox being black holes on offense don't help us out at all. Freemantle is a must on the court but he has obvious defensive limitations. My biggest disappointment is Conwell. The guy had a freak year against lower competition and is clearly way over his head. He can't dictate any pace and if the defense doesn't give him obvious room he is shut down.
For the future, I am most disappointed that we lost Powell. He has looked decent for WVU all year. Swain must be kept at all costs to match with Lewis and Forsyth. Miller must get two impact transfers, real high D1 talent and not this lower level crap.
On what stays, Anderson is an unknown but has underwhelming stats at lower level colleges. Hugley is a complete bust. Traore is totally unknown. There are just a lot of spots open next year to fill with hopefully higher than this talent level. Conwell, I just don't about this guy. Swain should start over him to be honest.
