Well my first month on the job and I didn't get fired yet. At least I can knock that off my bucket list. I can't even begin to describe the hard work I've put in here at William and Mary but I think the team is really starting to understand my methods even though our record doesn't indicate it. I've had some talks with my family and they feel that I have been too kind to my players and I agree. I really need to pound it in their head that I won't tolerate this kind of defensive performances we have had. I have players who aren't performing to their abilities in Rashon Curry and Galen Brown and I think Grant Keown is really performing above his ability.
My player of the month is Brian Slaughter. Here are some stats for Slaughter
19.2 PPG (leads team)
7.8 RPG (leads team)
1.4 steals per game (leads team)
1.2 blocks per game (leads team)
58% FG % (leads team)
I tell you Brian has really played well and we will continue to tell him to do everything he can for this team as I feel he's truly the leader of this team. Rashon Curry has struggled and struggled mightily shooting 28% from the field which is just abysmal. I hope this month gets better
We have Princeton up next and this is a must win for us to get back to even.
