Yes, yesterday's game could have been a Bruin victory if certain things had happened differently like Dailey playing. That's separate from Dylan not playing to his abilities. The loss to Nebraska is not on Dylan. As an aside, I also believe that the loss to Nebraska is not on any individual. A team wins together and conversely also loses together.
I firmly believe that the one thing that is preventing the Bruins to even have a chance at achieving their potential is Dylan Andrews's lack of fulfilling a role. For whatever reason(s), he is just not performing to his capabilities as a lead guard with everything that title implies. To my mind the lead guard doesn't necessarily provide points or assists to any particular level (although he can lead the team in those categories). The lead guard IMO provides his team with guidance and focus and direction. At his best we've seen that Dylan can provide these things. Why he isn't doing this is anyone's guess.
