8-2 with no big wins. It took a missed free throw by Bradley to give us that game. Oklahoma at least may turn out to be after beating Huggins but is our record a mirage? Is the early season shooting a mirage vs other weak defenses? Scouting and good oppo coaches make s difference.
Our defense is 90th ranked. That is not good. Our rebounding is awful.
We shall see what changes are made going forward. I’m hoping that Seton Hall was a one off, but they barely beat Providence yesterday.
Being concerned with substandard performance and not having your team ready for stuff the oppo will throw at you is appropriate.Last edited by Masterofreality; 01-03-2021 at 09:15 AM.

A Xavier manager that must have thought all was well under Mack? It wasn’t. If your idea of success is losing 12 to 15 games half the time and making an occasional run to the sweet 16 or elite 8, then have at it. I want Xavier to be more like Villanova and Gonzaga. Mack wasn’t taking us to the next level. Hopefully Travis can put together that team or program that can. 2.5 years in and we don’t know. We are building the shooters and skill but need that total team to get there. Offense, defense, rebounding, toughness and attitude. Keep building.

For everyone who said this was a complete team, the main missing cog right now is a Tyrique Jones/Zack Hankins/Matt Stainbrook enforcer in the post. Even though Seton Hall was a better matchup last year, it's still going to be very unnerving to see our guys outtoughed.
It's also not helping that we don't know what their next opponent will be - if St. John's can't go this week, their next game will be at home against Providence next Sunday. That's another game that could be a potential embarrassment if they can't correct the mistakes from the Seton Hall game.

The Browns have had 8 coaches since 2010 (including two interim HC’s), and 12 since 2000. THAT is a joke, and that is my point. It may have been some hyperbole on my part, but stability counts for something in my book.

My only real expectation for this year for Steele was for him to emerge and show that he clearly has the program moving in the direction. Time will tell......I like some of what I see and some I don't. Another mediocre season was not what I was hoping for and it just feels right now that we are headed there.

When evaluating this season I think it’s important to note that it has not been smooth sailing in regards to the schedule. Not just the game schedule, but also the development and practice schedule. Nor should be expect it to be for the remainder of the season. Even now, after having yesterday’s game rescheduled, we still don’t know for sure if they will play SJU on Wednesday. They didn’t have hardly any off season workouts, had several OOC games canceled, have already had one pause in the season, and it shouldn’t surprise anyone if that happened again. In other words, the progress curve should not be expected to be smooth. Like the rest of the season, there are going to be stop, starts, missteps, and even back steps, from time to time. This is far from a finished product and a set back from time to time should not unexpected or reason to panic.
