Cracks me up that people make excuses for it too. I don't think the Diebler hire can really be excused, just call it what it is, the athletic department being ok with a lazy cheap hire of a "nice guy" who won't rock the boat or bring any controversies
Mobley has been mostly a huge meltdown. The first half of his freshman year looked very promising but ever since then it's a wild ride where we get the awful version more than the good
I think it's obviously a very poor coaching job. YES WE KNOW MICHIGAN IS MORE TALENTED. But that doesn't excuse the things you describe here that's all on the coaching.
I want him to succeed but I just don't see it happening. I get the feeling we could legit in the future be heading into year 5 of Diebler without a single tournament appearance. That's how ok the athletic department seems with this as long as there is no bad press or as long as it's not like 10...
I think we have a athletic department who could really care less about any other sports as long as they can continue to just ride the football program. As long as it's not too awful and doesn't bring bad press they are ok with being lazy and cheap and with mediocre results.
Once again how many people are going to want to financially support THIS PRODUCT? These are the results you get when you just hand the job to the assistant of the former failed coach who was a big part in the continued driving of this program into mediocrity. You're gonna be hard pressed to...
It remains true though. When you settle for assistants of the former failed coach you are going to get the same failed results. I don't understand how anyone thought this experiment was going to go any other way than it has so far
Have you considered that none of this is an excuse for Diebler being in over his head and just not good as an actual coach. He's another "nice guy" who's not good at the job. Just like his former boss.
When you just hand the job to part of the former failed product do you really expect people to be lining up the fund the hoops program? These excuses are complete lame. The Athletic Department took the lazy and cheap option and the results are about what you can expect from that
The god awful defense is all on the coaching.
Michigan got Dusty May who quicky has that program rolling at a very high level. We settled for the assistant of the failed former coach who has the Ohio State program sputtering in the same mediocrity. The big difference here.
The goofy big who has the ugly shot draining 3s is just a continued testament of how cursed this hoops program is at the moment. Whatever can comically go wrong will.
Everytime they get it back close some stupid shit happens. Big guy makes his 1st 3 of the season ...followed by a turnover which leads to yet another wide open 3
