Dement Coaching

Postby BBallFan » Sat Jan 24, 2004 3:11 pm

Dement will stick with his zone defense no matter what. He has new players in there who aren't pros at his defense - but would he try man-to-man - no. This coach only knows how to intimidate and demoralize his players. 2 a days? He is known for tiring his players out on a road trip if they don't perform his way - thereby undercutting his own players. The radio half time show - obviously that guy doesn't realize what Dement is really like - puts on that false face to the alum - but you don't see the true Dement like the players do. He berates his players even when they win. Doesn't know how to motivate or coach. He is always outcoached by the other team. Never makes adjustments or changes the offense.

right- he can't coach. Those records elsewhere were mirages. We have better talent than TT or Purdue. He doesn't play man because our guys are too damned slow. Get a clue. But don't say that BHop is not performing up to snuff. That is a sacrilege around here. Don't say he keeps making dumb freshman mistakes despite being a starter for 1 1/2 years or that his shooting percentage is low.
