While I am also frustrated as many of the problems are very correctable and are a result of the staff either electing to do or not do something, I believe that
GMac knows more then we do and has his reasons for what he is doing / not doing.
GMac has shown he can put a winning team on the floor so I have to believe and hope that in time we will see a good to great team in Ames again. However, I agree as you make an excellent point that all the spin is pretty sad. The new program, new players, lack of his type of players, lack of experience, blah, blah, blah, is not a legitimate reason for many of the problems we saw against Iowa tonight, just an easily thrown out excuse.
