Going entirely by this game, Notre Dame is a poorly coached team.

@@kinkystud510 Notre Dame was out rebounded by Syracuse by 7 on offense and by 9 on defense; despite this trend being apparent early, no change to their rebounding set was made. Notre Dame shot 33% from the floor due to the pressure by Syracuse and throughout then game made no effective adjustment. So you watched this highlights, what did you see that counters my assertion?

@@jameslaughter5183 Notre Dame is ranked 15 in the country. Does it seem likely that this game is an anomaly or is it more likely that the coaches are clueless? Sometimes the coach instructs, but what they ask for does not get done.
