Heron went 1-12, picked up a flagrant, and fouled out of the biggest game of his career at St. John’s while mullin was the coach. this is just heron’s mo. He’s a good kid with skills, but he’s a bit of an enigma.
For better or worse, our coach has a system, and that system isn’t to run the offense solely through Mustapha Heron. From what I can see, Coach Anderson doesn’t care if you’re a second team pre-season All BE player and likely NBDL second round pick. If you don’t buy into his system, you’re gonna sit.
I think we want a coach who holds all of our guys accountable. Maybe Coach Anderson knew that by benching Roberts and Champagnie that he was giving Georgetown the game, but he did it with a purpose in mind. I know that’s a reach, but in order to hold players accountable, you have to have consequences for actions.
We are lacking 3 point shooters. There have been enough games played that we can all see that it’s not just an opponent thing. We can’t shoot. That said, it puts us in an all too familiar situation, because traditionally, we haven’t hit the 3 point shot.
And for you youngins, this goes back even to the Lou Carnesecca days. Many felt the game had passed him by and pushed hard for him to call it a career.
