Overall grade, exceeds expectations -- to this point, end of the regular season.
Kudos to the team and coaches for that.
On individual player evaluations, let's take the Stan-Uconn game as an example. How much of those performances were the individuals vs the coach's instruction/system? "All Chiney all the time" didn't work very well.
I've been encouraged that the coaches seem to have opened the offense up to more individuals since then (but there are still old imposed habits to break). We'll see what happens when the pressure is on; will things stay open, or will panic set in, and we go back into the shell - of "All Chiney ... all the time".
