Is Kevin Willard the problem?

Picture the Clyde Frazier voiceover..."gotta like what Ewing is doing!" Very funny! Agree, respect that no nonsense toughness from a coach.

True, unfortunately the shots aren't bad...the shooter is bad. Feel bad for him because he seems to work real hard...but I feel worse for us as every time he has the ball in his hands I cringe and anticipate another brick or mistake. One of the poorer offensive players I've seen in a long time. Even with only the UConn game with fans in attendance I could hear people in the "crowd" saying "oh no...Molson Ice."
i actually dont think hes poor. he at least tries and has confidence. hes better than the dozens of players over the years that shrink into the background and do nothing.

Good motor, good effort, no doubt. Respect for that for sure. Who knows about the confidence though, it's tough to miss that many shots if you have any kind of confidence and just a little bit of skill.
 
Other than the fact that Cooley started his career at Providence well and Willard started his career at SHU badly, the two guys are very similar. Imagine the vitriol here if Willard was nowhere near the tournament discussion with a first round pick (Duke) and a top 5 big man (Watson).

Cooley’s worst job to date is this year’s team.
 
Completely Ridiculous. Really? Come on we need positive energy. Move on from this nonsense. We can be a little critical without going over the top.
