Since CMY is so rigid, I am more than happy to coach his static system, but make the plain to see adjustments for a third of his salary.
Take the delta and hire a strong assistant and put the remaining towards NIL.
I would also reduce my buyout to $1M.
If this were the case right now, we very well may be 22-5 (11-3). We would be top 3 in ACC and ranked this season.
But in reality, if CMY made some obvious adjustments, we would be in the top 4/5 in the ACC, well on our way to the Dance, and possibly ranked for sure. And, all of this his completely in his and the team's reach. It isn't because of bonehead coaching and players doing boneheaded things in the last minutes game after game.
17 days, 6 hours, 0 minutes, 13 seconds per the tracker on the OP's link. LET'S GO!
Wow!!!! Holy Smokes!!!! This just stings. This alone tells one all they need to know....CMY is not a dynamic coach at all. Mixing in zone form time to time, at the very least to just throw off your opponent off, would have more than likely changed the outcome of 4 of our losses, maybe a 5th.
And, I'm not even taking into consideration our inability to close games.
I didn't watch this game, but my son did. Here's his text to me.....about says it all and I am glad I didn't watch this game.
What a fucking sorry ass team
Loss by one point
Up by 5 with 2:30 left. In the last 2:30 we scored one fucking point.
1 fucking free throw in 2 minutes and fucking 30 seconds.
Tobi turns the ball over and fouls them with 12 seconds left. They make one free throw and that's the game.
And of course we get the last second shot and Ben Hammond misses a 9 foot shot.
This. Team. Fucking. Sucks. So. Much. Ass.
Uhhh, for those of us who started at Tech in the 1960's with Jerry Claiborne, you are but a puppy.
Will just leave this here. Definitely a coach failing to adjust issue.

*32 for Donaldson after the game-winning free throwβ Tucker Terry (@TuckerTerry05) February 18, 2026
It was actually Bedford getting beat around the screen the majority of the time with Donaldson. If you are REALLY concerned about Donaldson shooting 3s, go to a box and one. The one goes wherever Donaldson goes.
Yes Donaldson is good but how is Hammond getting torched off the bounce like this? His on ball D is very inconsistent.
And yes, play a freaking zone for one minute
No reason why it couldn't be both
We better drop at Liberty

THESE UNIFORMS π₯ π₯ π₯
Imagine these for Football on an Exit Light Friday Night Blackout Game
Force him to prove that rather than giving up bunnies and and 1s
He shot 70% in second half thanks to eight layups
The highly talented kids that we did get, didn't regress but also didn't get a whole lot better year over year.
How much that is due to poor secondary coaching vs the secondary having to cover for out of position linebacker or something?
Donaldson would just light it up from outside
Hard to scheme against moving screens / pivoting screens
But as a coach seeing that, you have to change up how you approach it. Going to a 2-3 zone compacted to the lane takes away their biggest weapon of screens and rolls. How many times tonight did they get free runs at the basket? Too many
Mike Young is too stubborn to consider a zone and it cost him another win.
Like we were ever going to preferential foul calls over UNC.
Hansberry wasn't strong on the screen and Donaldson slipped it. That's where the play blew up.
They were consistent, they just don't call fouls on Miami. With this crew, Miami might go undefeated.
They aren't actually allowed to call fouls on Miami, at least against Tech.
They didn't call so much shit on Miami it wasn't funny. It truly was five on eight in Miami.
Interested to the see the replay. Not surprised it wasn't shown. Regardless, no one should be shocked, this team has zero idea how to close out a game.
Didn't look like a foul to me on the last play. Moreso the common case you see in today's game of the offensive player trying to draw contact to get a foul instead of focusing on making the shot. Refs didn't bite and Hammond lost his balance which lead to an even worse shot. But that's just one play. We lost because there was zero defensive adjustment in the 2nd half. Just Mike Young and his staff watching the same thing happen over and over with their hands in their pockets
I don't think it was let as much as they illegal screened for him all night and he pushed off a lot. Bedford is a really defender and would get tossed aside leaving him to score.
I don't understand this officiating crew. They call a terrible (but consistent game). Next time we have them they'll call fouls on us for breathing on the other guy.
3 obvious fouls on the last play...but they weren't calling anything all game, so they're consistent??!??

I think the Cadillac livery looks pretty damn good this year. Not sold on them up at the front of the pack, but I'll be rooting for them. Now if they could only get an American driver....
The unveil during the Super Bowl was pretty good, too.
