It just seems like you only focus on the negative posts and forget about the positive ones which is what I said in my first response to you. The only poster really posting harsh negative things before your response is someone who rarely says anything of value or positive so he is probably one you should take with a grain of salt.
My post I guess was on the negative side but I didn’t single out JBo for saying it, I basically said it’s to be expected and anyone who knows anything about anything would be focusing on defense which is true. Let us not forget that our defense is also what let us down in Jok’s senior season, so much of the talk last off-season was about improving the defense. We said man if we can just play defense at an average level we should have a solid year, and that turned out to be true, but unfortunately we took two steps backwards on the defensive end. Point being we’ve been talking about defense for quite some time, so I’m not surprised we want results and not just talk.
Lastly, because I was the one saying Fran needs to bench guys for poor defense and turnovers which you addressed. That doesn’t not mean Cook and JBo don’t play. What it means is early in the year when we are playing cupcakes and Tyler Cook makes a lazy defensive play you yank him for 5 minutes. When JBo turns the ball over and jogs back on defense he comes out and gets a firm talking to. When your team sees that those are not acceptable plays even for your best players, the message tends to be sent pretty clear. I watched Bo Ryan do this masterfully for years. Particularly he was extremely tough on Sam Dekker, especially his freshman year. By his sophomore year when they made their run to NC game, Dekker was playing at an elite level and especially in crunch time. It about proper motivation, and when it comes to Fran and defense, I don’t feel he does a great job in that regard. Some others happen to agree with me.
