In the past I have pointed out what I think have been some shortcomings in Coach Smart's performance and how that is reflected in the play of our team.
That said, I wanted to start a positive thread about him and what he is doing well. Here's my list.
1) Adjusting on the fly. I think that the CAA is more rugged than coach Smart (and the rest of our staff) expected, especially in our best conference RPI year in recent memory. I think he's made some good personnel adjustments including getting KP more involved, giving Brandon the starting nod over Jay and working Skeen into the mix.
2) Smart seems to have asserted more control. Larry has stopped shooting the three and there's a "team-first or you don't play" law taking hold.
3) Has dealt with the fans and alumni base in an outgoing manner. Shows charisma and gives insightful, "uncanned" responses to questions.
That's my list. Interested to hear what you have to say.
