Haase said it was coach's decision not to play Davis in 2nd half. That worked real well.

---

Davis didn't play because Haase wanted "more cohesion." That worked real well too. Count me unimpressed.

Unless this was a discipline issue, I can't begin to understand this decision.  And on Davis' senior day, too :(

Despite the end of the 2019-2020 season. I was a Haase supporter then.  I'm in the other column now.  Not that it matters to Muir...

I hate to admit it but I kind of gave up on the team's chances with the loss to WSU.  I watched the Oregon game but with mostly a sense of unhappiness because I was sure we would find a way to lose.  I actually think the team responded well to the loss of da Silva but never felt the joy I usually would when we were close to an upset in trying circumstances.  Team unity and effort along with having to play on the road with limited practice are some of the reasons I haven't been real focused on Haase's weaknesses this season.  He seems to have a great relationship with his team.  

I chose not to watch today but checked the score at the half and after the game.  Reading that Haase essentially benched Davis for the second half is really concerning.  It's a sign that either Haase doesn't have a clue about how to use his talented players or Davis decided to do things his own way because he's lost faith in Haase's coaching.  If Davis has lost faith, I worry that some others have as well.  This could be a sign of the team unity breaking down.  It might just be the frustration of a really difficult season under extremely trying circumstances but it could be a sign of larger problems to come.  If Davis crossed the line, I think it is important for Haase to make it clear that he is in charge and keep those players who are also on board with him.  I truly hope this is just evidence of frustration with the way the season is ending by a competitive player.  I don't want to see one of the team strengths under Haase disappear because I think he will be given two more years before Muir would make a move.  

Cheers,
