As far as I'm concerned, there better be maximum effort and desire from the players during a rebuild. I don't see that.
I can live with the losses and moral victories if each guy is putting forth tremendous efforts and individual players are improving aspects of their game.
The opposite is happening in this rebuild. Individuals are regressing, team play has become worse in many aspects, and the dog on effort simply isn't there. I would expect a young rebuilding team like ours to be playing balls to the walls and the coach having to reign them in a little because they are being TOO aggressive. This coach was forced to call out the team to the media for piss poor effort and resolve.
What is the root of the problem? I don't know. Sometimes I blame coach, sometimes I blame Captain, sometimes I blame the young boys with big bank accounts.
