Sitting in section 217 at the under 4 and the end of this game is already written. Before I say this I need to qualify that I am happy Gates is the coach and long term he is the right guys. But today was one of the worst coaching jobs I have ever watched. Every time a guy gets hot he takes them out but more on that.
Unfortunately these guys are exactly who I thought they were coming into the season and just looked good against terrible competition. There is a reason East couldn’t compete in D1 and had to go Juco., he just isn’t good. Gholston is a joke. There were stretches he just shot us out of the game. If you are going to have a guy play 1 on 5 it should be Mosley. The only decent stretches this team has are with Gholston sitting out. Here are the guys that can play P6 ball. Kobe, Hodge, Mosley, Honor, Shaw, Carter, and DeGray and Gomillion in short spells on defense. So Gates minutes and usage is just puzzling. How does he sit a 40/50/90 guy. How does he take Hodge and Honor out every time they get hot? I think he is need to give an answer of what is going on with Mosley. Gates will be fine long term as he is collecting talent and by next year we shouldn’t have the all horizon league team, but this was painful.
