Here's what I've seen from what I've watched so far:
1. With a freshman point guard, we've been at the wrong end of a mismatch at that position - and that's not McKenzie's fault! He's just a frosh, and we've played Maryland, UConn and Ball State. But right now, it's throwing everything off, especially at the end of games. This'll work itself out with McKenzie's improvement and experience (and maybe Cornish's return), plus the fact that we don't have many players the caliber or Cowan, Adams and Persons to deal with during the rest of the season. I'm not worried about it.
2. I am worried about Sturvidant's shot selection. It's not just the threes. He's hitting them well enough, so keep shooting. My problem is that it's only threes. We need him down low. He's not asserting himself, and we all know he can.
3. Boals is still figuring out the rotations. He'll get there. When is Garcia coming back?
But here's the long view: We have a young team at the America East level, and we just hung tough with Maryland for a half, UConn for 37 minutes and Ball State (with a great player in Persons) for 35 minutes. Yes, it would have been great to have pulled one of these games out, but honestly, we should be 0-3 right now, with 0-4 looming. The results are disappointing. The process, however, is uplifting and optimistic.
Keep at it, team. Great job, Coach.
