In response to GoBigGreenBasketball
Could be -- I was responding to GoGreen's suggestion that the coach had been told to focus on player development rather than winning. If that is the case, it seems like a strange time for it.
Assuming that is not the case, though, that makes the bad start even more disheartening in some ways. As I mentioned back when the staff was put together, I was surprised by the total lack of division one coaching experience among the coaches. I believe the entire staff has 3 years of division one coaching experience total (and all of that belongs to the head coach). Having that green a staff (see what I did there?) may lead to some growing pains. The difference may be particularly stark when you are replacing a guy with NBA experience. While some of his approach may have been outdated, I worry that Dartmouth went too far the other way in replacing him.
