    Hey man. It is tough to just watch BC consistantly look good and then lose games they should win.I think the issue is more of a motivational thing. It seems like their players will make a point to get up for big games but they certainly overlook games that should be easy wins. That could very well be a coaching issue. Skinner is not the best recruiter, but does bring in guys who turn out to be better than thought and I think it is because he is such a good coach. The flex offense he runs is so simple, but can be very tough to stop, but finding guys to fit into his offense can cause BC problems. The lose of Tyrese Rice is something BC gets away with in some games, but in others it really shows.
