Huh? Let the quotes gathered from CSN Washington’s Ben Standig take you through it. Standig was hoping to get a glimpse into the team’s offense that has become a sore spot for its fans, given the team's recent failures in the NCAA Tournament, but he got a lengthy, perhaps puzzling explanation from the Hoyas coach instead.
