At least we no longer have the CTO
Clogged Toilet Offense by season (offensive efficiency):
2008-2009: 194th 2010-2011: 183rd 2005-2006: 113th 2009-2010: 62nd 2004-2005: 53rd 2002-2003: 50th 2007-2008: 33rd 2003-2004: 25th 2006-2007: 15th
Complete Plumbing Failure the Whole House is Flooded Offense by season (offensive efficiency):
2011-2012: 254th 2012-2013: 249th
A team with Zam Fredrick III running the point as a true freshman, with no backup, was far more efficient than this train wreck we're running out there. There are plenty of excuses for being poor offensively. There are ZERO excuses for being this truly wretched.

Re: At least we no longer have the CTO
Two good shooters would cure this in a skinny minute. We have the worst shooting guards and small forwards of any team at any level that I've ever seen. And someone indicated the other day we may be thinking about a 4 out offense....

Your boy is soon to be fired from George Mason, maybe you should invest all your time there defending him.

Re: At least we no longer have the CTO
It is what it is.
I appreciate your analysis. You have shown facts. And to be fair, CBG was criticized for his offense before he came to Tech-------------------------However, there are a lot of positives with CBG as well.
Let's see what happens next season. If the offense doesn't get any better, then IMHO, CBG will be more open to criticism. There is an expression that should be noted here: "Sometimes you have to take a step back, to take two steps forward.". Based on the way CPH left the program, CBG deserves the benefit of the doubt that this is exactly what he is doing: clearing the foundation and rebuilding the program.

This also shows that CPH got worse every single year he was here---9 years in a row, incredible; yet, there are still those that defend him.

I think this is the take - except the PH years are not in a row so the progression is more uneven. Several things being done really well by CBG but there is no doubt offense is the massive black hole with this team and one CBG has to fix. Gets a pass this year but really has to improve next year. Or else the dark side will be one with the Hive

It is a little early for the beer. That isn't close to true.

At least one urinal should be dedicated to CPH.

It is a little early for the beer. That isn't close to true. You are correct, my apologies. I got interupted and finished the post later. Plus, I was looking only at the order in which the op was listed..............that's my excuse and I'm sticking with it  Anyway, I stick with my basic premise that CPH was going in the wrong direction. And, CBG should be given a certain amount of time to rebuld the program; and, hopefully we will see offensive improvement next season.

There are plenty of excuses for being poor offensively. There are ZERO excuses for being this truly wretched. Just want to point out that ZFIII was a sophmore that year. He played a little in 04-05.

RE: At least we no longer have the CTO
I give Vad credit. He predicted our offense with CBG would be bad and so far he has been correct. The numbers don't lie. I do feel like our offense creates more quality shots than with CPH but we are unable to finish those opportunities.

Re: At least we no longer have the CTO
Here they are in order. Not sure why the OP arranged them the way he did. I do agree that it's quite true to say that the trend was in the wrong direction.
2002-03: 50th 2003-04: 25th 2004-05: 53rd 2005-06: 113th 2006-07: 15th 2007-08: 33rd 2008-09: 194th 2009-10: 62nd 2010-11: 183rd
I think when you see those numbers, the only conclusion you can make is that Hewitt really didn't know how to teach the offensive game. If you know how to teach offense, I would think the numbers would be a little more consistent (as opposed to the wild cardiac chart starting with Fredrick).
However, this trend is back the other way so far. It's not good, but the cupboard was pretty bare when Hewitt left, so a new coach gets some time to get it going back in the right direction.

Re: At least we no longer have the CTO
The first two year's results is primarily the responsibility of the previous coach. Years 3, 4 and 5 are progressively the responsibity of the new coach.

Scoring is down across college basketball. Clemson Coach comments on it ... interesting: http://www.orangeandwhite.com/...ege-basketball/Also, here's a related article, "Mens college basketball scoring hitting new lows," published recently: http://www.chron.com/sports/co...ows-4244885.php

Re: At least we no longer have the CTO
Geeze, this thread is depressing.
It shows me that a concerted search and locate effort should be mounted for a player or two who can shoot the eyes out of a basket.

RE: At least we no longer have the CTO
Vad was correct. He did predict this. But, we have seen what we CAN do when we shoot the ball good. Defense, rebounding(sometimes) and taking the ball out of bounds(imho) have improved. I think we are headed in the right direction. I've even noticed some changing of the offense since the first of the year. It appears to be getting better.

Am I to understand that Vadimivich here does not like Brian Gregory coaching our team?
