This loss is due to no adjustments by Rahe. Jawara was having an awful shooting performance and was left in. Terrible game on the boards, too. Congratulations to Idaho on their 6th win.

This year doesn’t look like any exception to the late season collapses and early tournament exits. With the talent they have…not saying it’s amazing, this falls on coaching. Players need to realize they aren’t as great as they think they are and step up on the fundamentals. Defense has been awful…especially in the key moments. You can have off shooting nights if you work your butt off on defense…obviously defensive effort is lacking.

Had to be the tired legs. A big problem at Weber the past couple years.

Not according to Olds....here are his words, not mine....

"Next up is this idea that players are getting burned out physically and mentally by playing too many minutes in games. There might actually be some merit to this idea if we are talking about an 82 game season with 35 year old players. In a 35 game season, with a 2 game per week average, and 20 year old players, I don't feel that it is really a thing. Maybe mentally, but certainly not a physical thing. Games are just a small part of the year over activities of these young athletes. I estimate that a player puts in 30 minutes per day in weight training, another 30 to 40 minutes in aerobic training, and another 30 minutes in skill development. They do that 4 to 6 days per week. When the games actually start they are practicing 90 minutes, 3 to 5 days per week, and playing 40 minute games 1 to 3 days per week. The difference between playing 25 minutes of a game or 40 minutes is negligible and the recovery is easier than the practices and summer workouts. The mental/emotional aspects of the season can be mitigated with coaching."

Of course he also said in the paragraph before this that no skill development takes place during the season....I guess that 30 minutes per day in skill development must not be too fruitful....
 
Weber.....where the most talent in the league resides every year....but TLS (tired legs syndrome) is pandemic. You'd think 5th year transfers willing to stick it out for one but not two seasons in Ogden could avoid the pandemic...but it's proving to be highly contagious.

Lol olds doesn’t know what he is talking about. Just because you do harder work in the off-season doesn’t mean you don’t get burned out, a game definitely takes a toll on your legs especially playing 30-40 minutes like the starters play and players do skill during the season, it’s just 1on 1 with a coach on their own time not at whatever time olds goes to watch practice
