I don't really understand the criticisms of Haase.  Last year's team featured 3 seniors and a bunch of juniors getting most of the minutes.  This year, we're starting 2-3 freshman every game, with our bench consisting of Sharma, a redshirt freshman, and a walk-on.  I don't think there's a coach in the country that could do much better.

If we're still playing this badly when everyone is healthy, then we have a problem.  But until the team is healthy, I'm withholding judgment on Haase.

I agree 100%. When you're down to 6 or 7 scholarship players there's only so much you can do. Doesn't take away from the fact that the team that is playing is not good, but there's no basis on which to question Haase as a coach.

Fingers crossed that the boys can get healthy over Dead Week & Finals and we see a much better team on Dec 30 against the Weenies!
