I did believe that the bengals will be out coached in most games, but did not think a NAIA team would be one of them. WHY was ISU playing a zone against a team that had absolutely no business even remotely competing against ISU. This game should have been done and dusted within the first ten minutes; but Evans, stubborn as he is, plays this weak zone against a team that they should have been Man to man against from top off. 74-66 win against a very poor team. Talent alone, this game should have finished 100-50 , no questions asked. POOR COACHING! The assistants must be furious honestly.
On another note- Jared looks hurt , slow, shots off, but yet he is still getting the second most minutes on the team, what gives ?
There are players on the court that offer nothing but “non mistake prone” players. Players such as Austin and Lyle who just go on the court, grab a rebound or two , go through the motions, and get back to the bench. These kind of players, will have their time in the future, they will become better players, but they should not be taking away minutes from Balint (like we saw in Pepperdine) from Gary, Alonso and others, none.
In post game interview , Evans said something that sounded so DAMNING, and scary if you are a Bengal fan. That he believes , the most talented players , aren’t always the best team? Maybe 15 years ago... because it’s the coaches job to make sure their best team is made around the most talented players. If this means, sitting your best scorers, rebounders, shooters, and playing a kid more because he won’t make that extra TO, and pass the ball, then bengal fans will be in for a tremendously long season yet again.
The same birds will chirp, Fire Evans... he should have been let go earlier. But this time, with the NEW AD, a coach who claims that best players aren’t the best team, in order to hide his favoritism amongst them all, will be signing retirement papers.
This ISU team is a above average conference team is they have proper rotations, coaching. Here is my 8- Kelvin, Balint, Gary, Jared, Brandon, Alonso, Chidi, Chier- anyone else should only be in for injury relief or to rest a position, nothing else.
