    I don't know what people you were talking to that said fire coach k. unless you're reffering to the guy on here that compare him to brady and were trying their best to be funny or just being a smartass. the key players on that team are mostly freshman.
    they are also at te top of the acc.

    to say players aren't better after playing 3 years is just ridiculous. they haven't had great pactice players, but they have 4 years of sec experience. even though they have learned few fundamentals in the 4 years(collis with no defense, torris jumping in the air before he has a shot or pass), they still should be better.

    Practice is still where the bulk of improvements take place. You can't try out a new move in a game against a real defender and then tinker with it to improve. You have to use the moves that you tried in practice (against inferior opponents). Results are a detriment to improving. Collis can get away with not playing outstanding defense in practice because he might be guarding Thomas Davis or somebody like that. Torris can get away with jumping in practice because it always works (I still think Torris knows where he's going with the ball most of the time before he jumps).
