On Thursday afternoon, Kevin Stallings vented his frustrations to the media about what almost everybody agrees has been a frustrating, underachieving season, placing the blame at the feet of the media and fans who had high expectations for the team, the players for not learning elementary lessons, the players for not putting the team before themselves, the media for thinking his team is talented.
Nothing he said was different from things that he's alluded to all season. I'll be the first to admit that Stallings has a point when it comes to the expectations for this year's team; the media are generally not very good at setting expectations, but are very good at hammering a coach for failing to live up to the expectations they've set.
