Bradley has all sense of spontaneity coached out of them.
Maybe "over" coaching is the problem.
We won 25 game, the conference championship, and had a 12 game win streak (one of the longest in the history of BU basketball). We lost in the finals of the tournament to an overly experienced and talented team in Drake thanks to the COVID rules. Too much coaching isn't the problem. We just lost a game and didn't play well. For crying out loud, this is one of the best seasons we've had in the history of BU basketball so I'm not sure where this is coming from, but I feel that it's grossly misplaced.

If they were just running around all going one-on-one the criticism would be that we don't run offense. I don't think the team looks robotic at all. As previously mentioned, there isn't a guy on this team that excels at hero ball. Maybe Zek or Hick will someday. However, the strength of this team was inside. You have to run offense to get buckets, otherwise they will just double and triple team Rienk like they did this weekend. I though they made great adjustments on Saturdays running cutters to the weakside after Rienk would get double teamed, which ended in some dunks. If we hit 3s at a better rate I think we would have had more breathing room Friday and Saturday, and been more competitive yesterday. Look at how InStU and Drake had us scrambling after 3 point shooters, and unable to help inside.
