Re: How would you rate Coach Miller for the 2023-2024 Season?

F. The lack of effort and defense out of many of the players is concerning. Archie MUST turn that around. The team needs a personality. Needs an identity. Not at all saying Arch is on the hot seat. But he needs to get things headed in the right direction. IMO that has not happened yet.

Giant fan, I agree. Aside, we will need someone to run the team until Ben gets his feet wet. Love Lou, but he’s way too slow to stick with A10 guards. I’d rather we land a defensive point guard. I also want to see Cam take on a bigger role next year. I don’t think we bring back House and Luis. If I...

If the excuse is that the defense takes a long time to learn, then it has to be scrapped. With the amount of player turnover from year to year, it will never be learned. 90+ points in 3 of the last 4 games. 2 turnovers the entire game, 0 in the 2nd half. You score 84 points and still lose by 8. It'...
