Some of your "gaps in knowledge" can be filled in with public info
- player suspensions and losing recruits (family atmosphere and upgrading personnel was supposed to be Kalani's golden ticket)

- Bushman's comment that baseball practice is harder (baseball?!?!)

- players' only meeting criticizing amount of video game time (if the players see it as a problem...)

- S&C emphasis on Olympic lifting (just when we thought the Chuck Stiggins days were over)

- Kalani blaming offense more than defense for the losses. (We didn't hear that stuff from Bronco because he's more of a warrior and he embraced his role as top manager for the entire organization.)

When you combine these types of public reports with info from people on the inside, a picture emerges. Is that picture based on incomplete info and overreaching conjecture? Sure. That's CB's specialty. But at some level it doesn't matter how much the coaches are directly to blame. Things need to change, and the most immediate way to change things is by bringing in new staff (reference NHL head coach hiring/firing).

I am not a fan of change for the sake of change, especially to bring in someone like Roderick. But I don't think the players and program will get the fresh start they need unless there are significant shakeups on the staff. Most of us understood there would be growing pains for this staff and I think that still applies. But if they are determined to succeed in coaching some of them may just have to grow elsewhere.
