The main reason the year failed was too many polls.

I voted for poor talent evaluation but is also a combination of ignoring the portal. Save his first season when he absolutely needed bodies to field a team, he has completely ignored any sort of transfer, save the NAIA kid who never played because of injuries.

Thinking he could go into the last two seasons and compete with bigs like Gold, Hamilton, Clark, Amadou etc. is a MASSIVE red flag moving forward.

Ok, makes sense. I don't follow UC and the current team is not "paper bag bad" but 5 years of futility is a valid reason.

Rather than checking one of the boxes you so kindly provided, I am going to say that the main reason for the failed season is that we have lost too many games. 

Spencer Pratt is probably much healthier than us for avoiding Scoop for 16 years.

Sub par posters.  Need to broom some out and try to get better through the fan portal.   I know some schools have already contacted my agent.

Quote from: WarriorFan on Today at 10:05:22 AMThis team is better with Ben on the court than off.  He's improved defensively and rebounding.  Is he the star we all wanted him to be?  No.  Is he better than the current alternatives?  Yes.  Get him healthy for the tourney and get his shot back and this team could surprise someone.

With a 2 point win over DePaul in the 1st round of the big east tournament?

Combination of all 3

Lack of shooters who can not only shoot but score.   Poor overall defense.
