You can't have a player shoot 3-17--you just can't. Warlick has apparently missed all of the big games in which Simmons has shot terribly, like this one--games that UT has LOST. It looked like the light had finally come on for Simmons--but it's dark again, I'm afraid. And when UT faces a good team in the NCAA tourney, and Simmons starts putting up brick after brick, UT will lose. Depth is a problem, because Massengale seems to enjoy watching games now more than playing, but the coach needs to know when to tell Simmons to stop shooting, for the good of the team. And that needs to happen before she's hoisted 17 shots. When the ball is not dropping, you stop shooting and starting trying to create good shots for your teammates. Simmons has quickness--drive and dish. But that didn't happen either--a meager 2 assists. If I were a mafia don, I'd turn to Warlick and say, "Handle it." If only she knew how...
