At least based on what I saw last year - realizing many of those guys are gone - size was an issue at nearly every position. We were shorter, or not as strong, as our opponents, at nearly every position. And we didn't make up for that weakness with quickness. We also weren't a particularly good shooting team from the outside, and good shooting can make up for a lot of other things going poorly.

Finally, and perhaps most importantly, as others have noted, there's a huge lack of experience, again, on this team. We're 19 and 20 year olds playing against teams of 21-23 year olds.
