Ouch ... you apparently also have too much time, as do I, LOL!
Princeton game was a sh*t show, for sure.
Overall (not in response to you or any specific poster) ... last season was awful, at many levels. Upon reading this thread, and many posts, as well as the research I did that has been posted on this thread, while of course this falls on the coach and the staff, the primary problems of last season were, in no particular order:
1) Spencer leaving RU in the lurch, unable to replace him with a similar quality player, by transferring out in May (not as concerned about Mulcahy leaving in June - not sure he would have made such a difference, especially seeing him do at Washington, exactly what he had done his last season at RU).
2) Omoruyi NOT improving (and in fact, in my opinion, regressing). I was startled when yesterday I looked at Omoruyi game by game and saw that RU was 9-0 when he went double-double: I had not been aware of that. I HAD known he was outplayed by almost every even adequate Center RU faced last season ... which was NOT supposed to happen. Especially without Spencer, RU NEEDED an Omoruyi who progressed offensively, averaging 15 ppg and 10-11 rpg ... which he did not close to doing, in addition to letting other centers run rough shod over him (maybe that was missing the help defense of McConnell, who was so special, and basically a big fat zero from Mag).
3) In the absence of Spencer and Mulcahy, REGRESSION from Simpson. Without Spencer and Mulcahy, and even maybe if Griffiths averaged double digits in points, RU NEEDED Simpson to play like he did the last 6 games of the year before, where it looked like he might be a shorter, but more athletic version of Baker. In those last 6 games, Simpson scored 82 points (15.5 ppg), 13 assists, 8 TO, 18 rebounds, 6 steals, 32-81 FG (39.5%), 3-18 FG ... so 29-63 2 pointers (46%) and 15-20 FT. He played very well in 5 of those 6 games, got good shots, and made them - though poor 3-point shooting. FYI, last season, Simpson PLAYED a pretty good floor game (93 assists to 48 turnovers (decent at least), 44 steals, averaging 26 mpg ... but his shooting .,.. ugh ... I am pretty sure the stats showed he was LITERALLY the worst FG% shooter in the country with above a certain (20%?) usage rate? And also the worst TWO-point FG% shooter in the country. There was just no overcoming that.
