That and the sell that the defense will not be depended on by the team to win the game and they can get more aggressive and flat out get after it more.
"Currently, we like to blitz. Moving forward, we are going to blitz and then blitz on top of our blitz"

I think you can expect to see our defensive recruiting return to form going forward. The big knock against committing to us, despite Bud and Co, was that there was no certainty any of those coaches would be around for a while, because Beamer was getting up there and who knew what was going to happen after he retired.

Well, that's not a problem anymore.

Just wait until they see how well we show up to our beloved head coach's last game if they select us

I am glad that Allen had 25 points, but he only had 2 assists while committing 3 turnovers (nearly a 4th on the last play in OT). These numbers are not PG numbers. Robinson needs to play the point and Allen SG. Allen doesn't have much court vision except for the rim as evidenced by his multiple drives into a very crowded lane followed by prayers rather than finding the open shooter or slasher. I am glad the kid showed some scoring prowess and big shot ability, but his mistakes and defense is costly and I think his gun-slinging approach needs to be tempered until he plays with more control. Funnel the offense through Robinson or Wilson until then.

I don't know if anybody listens to the radio broadcasts of basketball games but I do because I work nights. He stopped by and talked to Laaser and Burnop too. Burnop said something about how although they introduced Fuente to Enter Sandman, it was going to be a whole lot louder in Lane Stadium.

Fuente said "Yeah, I've Googled those videos like 80 times and listened to them all." Went on to say he had been talking to some recruits and telling them how great the atmosphere was and they were like "yeah coach, we know" because they had been to games and he said he was jealous of that.

You're right. I think it's clear he doesn't want to be that guy. Just wishful thinking on my part. I really feel like he could take over a game if he were as aggressive as Allen is. I also can't wait for Clarke to really get his feet under him. When he figures it all out and learns how to effectively finish at the rim it's going to be fun to watch.
