The irony is that I think Vic has to be able to do what fans were asking with Aston. Like not being so stubborn and rigid in his approach. I know (just like with Aston) he doesn't like to play a zone and wants to play an aggressive man to man defense, but just like with many past Texas teams they don't have the overall athleticism and discipline on the perimeter to play that way right now. Nor do they have a rim protector that can cover up the fact that they allow too much dribble penetration. Vic needs to get a zone and a less aggressive man defense that he can use with this team. I also haven't been impressed with Vic's man offense thus far but it doesn't really matter what he does against the zone because they don't have consistent perimeter jump shooters.
