Even the biggest CMP supporters can't deny....

this team had no clue what to run the last 10 seconds of a tight game. Isn't that worked on a zillion times from October to March? CMP either never worked on it,or he's stupid. 2 times in 5 days we had the ball with under 10 seconds to win or tie the game & ran the exact same play. Johnny Hill drive to the basket against 3 defenders. Is that what we worked on? I just can't believe with AJ, Vince, DM & RD also on the floor, that's what we run. If you want to tell me it was on JH for the MSU game, okay we had no TO's left and maybe he panicked, but even without the TO, how can you not know what play to run and how can it happen twice in 5 days?

It appeared they weren't coached up for that type of scenario. Having said that, Painter is considered one of the best coaches in America or he wouldn't be getting 2.5 million / year (with incentives). Perhaps the "incentives" clause needs to be strengthened to include NCAA success as opposed to B1G success, coach of the year, & reg. season rankings.
