No Wojo With Homer/Long Closed Door Meeting With Team

[Heisenberg]

A long closed door meeting in the locker room after the St. Johns loss. So, no Wojo with Homer post-game.

Post here when/if you get color on what was said.

I will speculate that profanity was used.

Wojo should be fired up!
Markus, Sam, and Theo came out flat.
Guys didn't bring the physicality needed.

He needed to get their attention.

They will be fine.

Good!  Nobody competed tonight (with the possible exception of Joey for a short time).  If there isn't a huge response vs. Xavier and Creighton I'd be very surprised.

I would say Ed and Joseph C showed up

There was a game a year or two ago where Wojo missed the post game show after a long team meeting. They actually cut back in after the show so Wojo could do the postgame interview.

That was at home though. Wonder if they don't have that ability on the road.

STJ did a great job of allowing Ed to get the ball in the post and not doubling. Ed's game is not post isolation. Very ineffective as a post. More of an energy guy. FTs were brutal.

EM,JC and JH showed up, the problem all the other BE experience did not.  What the heck is up with Cain?  Looks like a freshman, completely lost??

We are now the hunted, being #16 in the country. It's a different position for everyone to be in and we need to learn to bring it every night.

Cain got some run last night, but he looks lost when he has the ball. Air-balled three and an easy travel call. He is athletic and long and provides defense and rebounding. Ponds was just unstoppable when he was on him.

To me it has become increasingly evident that Sam has had issues with fouls when more athletic G/F are driving at him. Last night, at least one of them was questionable, but he has had trouble moving his feet to get in position especially on baseline drives.

Sometimes you get a wakeup call after long winning streaks. Last night was just that. Wojo probably felt the need to politely remind the team that every game is important and 40 minutes of effort is required to win in the Big East.

This kind of game happens from time to time, and hopefully it becomes motivation for our guys. That said, 2 true road games each resulting in 20+ point losses is not great. This team needs to find a way to win on the road. And while I'm sure they will, how long it might take is still up in the air.

Wojo's body language throughout the game gave off the vibe that he was fine with having his ass handed to him on a silver platter. Lotsa work still needs ta bee dunn, aina?

You should probably stick to nonsensical attempts at being funny.

I actually thought this was nice to see. He looked like a guy who was thinking "these guys will be very teachable the next few weeks"

Wojo his first few years showed a lot of intensity and anger. Too much anger. I much prefer this calmer Wojo.

Agreed, it's easier to tune out a guy who flies off the handle all the time.

He was calmer, but he certainly looked pissed.

He was calmer, but he certainly looked pissed.

Agreed. As he should have been. Controlled anger is usually more productive, though.

[tower912]

Muguru takes it as a sign that Wojo is not as emotionally invested as guru is.     It has been my experience that there are very few times that losing your (crap) actually gets anything accomplished.

I completely agree.  There was a timeout sequence a few years back where some here ridiculed Chris Mullin for saying NOTHING during a timeout, beyond a few words of encouragement.

Constant screaming, yelling, and hyper-reactive do NOT calm a team whatsoever.  I thought Wojo's in the huddle segment shown was alright last night.  Perhaps a little simplistic in message - stop them from scoring - but he was calm.

Nick Saban might disagree.  I honestly was starting to wonder if he would keel over on the sidelines during the semifinal when he was screaming so much he looked like his face went past red straight to purple.

If Wojo had Nick Saban-like BB recruits he wouldn't have to yell much.
