SHP, very erudite post. You are right on point both times.


Dribbling into trouble, susceptible to the trap on full court presses, etc., and we just don't get better. Like you, I wonder if they practice at all. All of these could/should have been corrected during the year, but they haven't been.
Generally, officiating for WBB is bad to horrible, but as a coach, you have no control over it. However, every decent coach "works" the refs; not to change the preceding call, but to get better calls later in the game. Buzz is a master of this, as noted in the ND game this weekend. Earlier in his tenure, Kenny needed time to learn the league, and the rules of engagement. We are now approaching the end of his third year, and the obligatory honeymoon is over. Kenny can only coach his team, not the refs; however, demonstrating to his team that he has their backs is necessary to prevent losing them.
