About half of our team looks like a church league squad.
Youth and inexperience????
Not taking care of ball = Inexperience at the PG position.
Lack of rebounding = only 1 player over 6'8" on the floor - and he's not a good rebounder
Lack of defense = combination of the two statements above
Did you watch the game??? The officiating in that game was questionable AT BEST. Those offensive fouls were atrocious. Blair makes room because Balbay has two hands on him (usually, two hands = foul, but not yesterday).
Yest.So youth and inexperience explain losing to Chaminade?
yesYouth and inexperience mean getting blown out by 23 when you shoot 49% from the floor?
sometimes and we have seen it sometimes this year. Do you remember last years' UNC team? I guess roy just forgot how to coach one year. I'm sure they never got blown out while shooting well.Youth and inexperience can be overcome on a well-coached team.
:ez-laugh:Our point guard has about 50 starts at the D-1 level, not exactly inexperienced. Are we the only team in the country starting an underclassman at point guard?
Not everyone is athletically gifted like those players you mentioned.Not a good rebounder? What pre-ordains Fitzgerald from being a good rebounder?
So youth and inexperience explain losing to Chaminade? Never. Youth and inexperience mean getting blown out by 23 when you shoot 49% from the floor? First, OU should never be beaten by 23. Secondly, if OU is going to lose by 23, I would at least hope we had a bad shooting night that caused the ass-whipping. Youth and inexperience can be overcome on a well-coached team.

Not a good rebounder? What pre-ordains Fitzgerald from being a good rebounder? The best rebounder in the history of the NBA was 6'8. Rebounding is mostly about position and effort. Ernie Abercrombie was 6'4 and had no trouble rebounding. Same with Charles Barkley.
Oh yeah, blame the officiating. It's always the officiating. Especially 3 times in a row.

Im starting to think Soonerbounce13 is related to Jeff Capel or a player on the team or something. His unwaivering, blind support is practically delusional.

Oh, ok. So now we can just use blanket excuses for everything?

"I think that this team has showed character and competitiveness and togetherness throughout the entire year, and I think we've done things that people didn't think we could do. I think this team is better than what our record has shown."
Klegg hates all officials.
Why don't you go away, we don't want you either! You guy's are a jokeJust step down Capel, we don't want you. We want a winning coach. You are the worst coach we have ever had. You rode Blake's coattails as long as you could and the party is over.
Understatement of the year.
I think they've gotten lazy and the athletes are sooo much better they can't keep up. When they guess (and they guess quite often), it just really t's me off.
I tell you how bad I've gotten...I actually go tell officials they did a good job after the games if I can (win or lose)...BTW, it's not often.
Look, I call it like I see it for my team or against...
Ha, just giving you a hard time b/c you rag on the officials quite a bit.
Agree with this, there needs to an infusion of younger officials to keep up. However, don't blame the officials...blame the administrators (Joe C.) and coaches (Capel) because they request the officials! Refs work as contractors and can do as many or few games if they want. Humans (i.e. imperfect in nature) are making split decision calls, it is the most judgemental sport to officiate and you have to make it in an instant. Like anyone else they make mistakes and errors in judgement, just like Carl Blair does when he throws it out of bounds assuming Cade is running off a flair screen instead of a curl.
Not surprising.
haha, heard this one before. You would be a great official then, sign up, I'm sure there is a local chapter looking for some groomed talent.
Just to point out. I believe NBA officials are the best. They RARELY guess.
BTW, I realize its a tough job. The problem is, you have guys like Ed Hightower running around out there letting you know just how easy it is...
