Vince was again awful in the first half of the game on defense. Now, I'll admit I didn't watch the second half at all, so he may have improved..but what I saw was a lazy defender who didn't appear once to get in to a solid defensive stance.
At some point, defense is simply a player wanting to play hard and put forth effort...a player of Vince's caliber shouldn't be struggling with defense the way he is unless, simply put, he isn't putting forth the effort needed to be successful on that end of the floor.
IMO, Vince is concentrating too heavily on his offensive output due to Haas' and Biggie's dominance at this point during the season. I think Vince is hunting his shot and has a bit of sour grapes. I can understand against Nova' with struggling at times...but against a team like USU to have VE struggling to play basic man to man concept defense for most of the first half...comes down to a lack of effort.
