You keep moving the goal posts. You did not say "I believe that" we are the dumbest , most poorly coached team in the country. It was a statement of fact that you reported as being true by saying "we truly are ...." (no disclaimer was given, nor was any doubt expressed nor was an emoji added to indicate sarcasm). You just typed out what was a bald-faced lie because you are a write before thinking type person or apparently have no inward compunction against using dishonest and hurtful language to tear down the team and its coaches that you claim to be a fan of.You think me expressing my belief that we are poorly coached and that I personally would prefer not to have him coaching our team equate to facts? Let's give an example:
Fact: Porter Moser has missed the NCAA tourney as many times as Lon Kruger did in a decade, and more than Kelvin did in 12 years.
Opinions commonly expressed on this board: this is the deepest OU team in the past 400 years. We have NBA guys coming off the bench, and next year, Forsythe is going to be a star who makes all of us forget Jordan Woodard ever existed.
You apparently never learned that opinions or beliefs should be properly identified as such by using words like "I believe ... or I think ... " Also I am not here to correct everyone's bad opinions or misstatements just yours right now. In the Navy we referred to responses like yours as coming from "sea lawyers". They never admit any guilt but just obfuscate and confuse the issue.You think me expressing my belief that we are poorly coached and that I personally would prefer not to have him coaching our team equate to facts?

I guess I assume that anyone over the age of four doesn’t need obvious things explained. I’ll dumb things down for you.You apparently never learned that opinions or beliefs should be properly identified as such by using words like "I believe ... or I think ...

Except, they don’t turn it over as often. We turn it over a higher percentage of possessions than they do. And as far as discipline, I don’t remember if I specially said he demands more discipline. I said he doesn’t use coach speak and wasn’t satisfied when they beat Baylor because of their sloppy play late in the game. But I do think he does a better job of coaching discipline. Turnovers are only one measure of that. Ball movement, late game execution, technicals … lots of stuff go into that.you have a bad habit of moving the goal posts.
I literally said in my post about this topic that it doesn't include pace. I wasn't ignoring it. I just don't have the data.
And ATO ratio, IMO is important but not when just talking about not turning the ball over. Assists are of different importance.
And I never said Self isn't a better coach. I just find humor that you slobber all over him, specifically about how he demands more discipline from his players, but the stats show his team turns it over the same amount as our team does.

It's not a double negative. I don't know what it is, but it's left me at a loss.Not sure you understand the definition of a fact.
GuiltyTo be fair, lots of lies and hyperbole and exaggerations happen in game threads

I don’t want it on campus. I had such a lousy time getting to the arena and parking that I really don’t feel like going backWe should hire Eduardo Najera as assistant to the assistant manager. He can bring his wealthy billionaire friend on as a donor to OU bball. Then we build the dang arena on campus, fill up the NIL tank, and go on a run all the way to the national championship.
Easy Peasy, lemon squeazy.
Yes I cited it this morning. We turn it over 15.7 percent of possessions and they turn it over 14.7 percent. That is enough of a difference to make us 231st and them 148th, so it’s more than it might sound at first blush.They do turn it over as often
Do you have stats on turnovers per possession?
I guess? I honestly don’t recall making any predictions on what our record would be, and certainly not what it would be after a random number like 11 conference games. I didn’t post for about 10 weeks before the season. But gun to my head as of the start of November, I would have predicted a final conference record of at most 8 wins, so if we exceed that, I’ll absolutely admit I was wrong. Just like I’ve repeatedly acknowledged that Moser did a good job upping the athleticism on the roster this year, and just like I posted last week that I was definitely wrong about Soares.We may lose every game the rest of the way but to this point. Tied in lose column with greatest coach ever bill self… to this point today… 10:33 feb 12th. It’s been a better year than you predicted and stated as fact since we lost last year….
Can you admit that?
In conference games only Kansas is 16.1% and third in conference and we are 17.1% and fifth. So both top half.Yes I cited it this morning. We turn it over 15.7 percent of possessions and they turn it over 14.7 percent. That is enough of a difference to make us 231st and them 148th, so it’s more than it might sound at first blush.

man that is pretty dang miniscule. If OU was at 14.7 and ranked 148th, you would still be saying it was too much.Yes I cited it this morning.

Co-sign this. Normally against the we must hire an OU guy. But absolutely on this lolWe should hire Eduardo Najera as assistant to the assistant manager.
