We have seen a large enough sample size to see our glaring weakness is scoring and if no action is taken, there isn't much reason to think the results will change. This team needs to start pressing from the jump for the following reasons:
1. When you can't score in a set offense, you need to generate easy buckets off turnovers.
2. We have the depth & athleticism! Our strength this year is our depth. We have the athleticism and bench to do it whereas in years past it wouldn't have been an option. More importantly we have the staff.
3. We have had success pressing this season. In our comeback with vs Hartford, we rallied to win that game from generating points late off turnovers from pressing.
I am not a fan of our current pressure. We pick up guards on the inbound then just sag off and fall into our half court set.
