I dunno... these players have all been on rep teams since Atom, with top coaches pretty well every year. You'd think basics like situational awareness would be second nature. Even good house league coaches stress this.
100% it’s coaching

Coach needs to get them to correct it and bench them or sit them out until they use their brains. We've seen it too long.
At this level, you either have it or you do not.
Not a teachable skill imo.

These guys have some ability, but not enough as a team.
Sure, you can bench guys. Doubt it helps them see the game any better.

This has nothing to do with ability. This is about being ready to play as a cohesive unit. That is all on the coaches.

No way Torts let them get away with for long IMO. Never gonna win if they keep making mental errors.

This has been going on for 8 years. For things like this you have to change the personnel, not the coach. We choose to not change the personnel and not bridge these gaps when we alter the fringe.

Torts could bench who he wants, but when those guys get back out there they are going to do the same shit time and time again.

Then you get rid of them and bring in smarter players.
