It was good to see us get back in a good rhythm on offense again.

Teams just are flat out selling out to stop TY. He won’t have a dominant game the rest of the year unless a team just decides to not run a scouting report.

Just a shame we had no defensive effort tonight. We are slow and lose our guys constantly.

I don’t know why, but even though I get frustrated with this squad, I hate Dick Vitale trashing the talent on our team.

Normally i would but he's right..

13 straight conference titles in one of the best conferences in the country.....yep, he's overrated.

Storm, if people are going to say he is a hall of famer like Dicky V did, I’m just looking for why? They are supposedly a “Blue Blood” basketball program. What does that mean to you? That they dominate all their little brother no basketball schools? Nope, it SHOULD mean they are consistently in the final four (kinda like OU being the Blue Blood Football Program being 2 out of 3 years in the final four). I would say 2 years out of 15 is a FAILURE as a blue blood and the only constant in those 15 years is Self.

It's time for Lon to move on. After next season, we'll have gone 3 straight years without making the NCAA tournament. And next year is going to be rough. The recruits to rebuild are not in the pipeline. Lon should be commended for getting us out of NCAA trouble and delivering an awesome final four run, but he just hasn't recruited and developed talent at the level necessary for sustained program success. They need to get some young blood in who can do that.

Why haven’t the mods banned inoref? He’s been called out for trolling by multiple posters since he joined the board.

While it would be great for him to say something positive once in awhile, I'm not sure today is the day. If we banned everyone who has almost nothing positive to say as of late, about 90% of us would be banned, including me.

While it's okay for us to vent, I'm going to ask everyone to keep it civil and don't get too personal.

Yup. I hope he's done this year. I won't be spending my money on this type of efforts anymore

He got us a final 4 and Buddy and hopefully another naismith with Trae. I will forever be grateful for that just like i am with terrible capel and griffin. But its time

 

[stormspencer]

Now front and center....we are seeing the "give up".

 

[opsooner]

Will we win again this season? I hope so but am not sure.

Tonight seems to worse but I swear I don't mean anything personal to anyone on here.

No. The team has quit and i think there are serious chemistry issues.

 

[sheepdogs1]

Mcnease could play for KU, he has ridiculous athleticism

I believe this is the most consistent offensive game from him, as he did not disappear for half the game, but his rebounding was woeful.

LOL yeah.

I think we will win another game this year but not so sure if we win in the big dance..if we get in

I don't think you're being bad. Maybe your posting history is bad.. but I'm worse tonight. I'm tired of the same mistakes..

 

[opsooner]

The good news is that this game might give KU false confidence. They are not going to be as poorly Dede fed from any other team. Not even close

Defense. Not what my phone put there the first time

theres a lot of animosity on this board. Anytime somebody has a unpopular opinion or is critical of a team that has lost 9 out of 11 people attempt to make them look stupid.

Even valid criticism is attacked.

Trae Young is simply not the dominant player he appeared to be. He’s obviously our best player, but our team stinks. I think nba scouts are paying attention and if they aren’t then I’m not sure what they are getting paid to do. If my career depended on a volume shooter who turns the balls over at his clip and has never been a winner i wouldn’t take the risk.

 

[hoopsaustin]

Have shooting woes? Play OU.. guaranteed to shoot over 50%

No wonder we suck.. we play ourselves on D in practice... can we scrimmage against the girls team??

Pathetic
