Some of us have seen enough coaches, done enough coaching, to recognize the signs that a guy is not in his element. The problem is not that the core is not mature enough, it is that the coach continues to make stupid decisions when it comes to roster selection, assignments, line matching, and playing time. You can't win game when you play your weakest players in the dying minutes of games, time and time again. It is the mature players on the team where the problems lay, not the youth.
