Oklahoma Basketball is dying...

...and if you don't believe that, you are fooling yourself. We need to take extreme measures this offseason to prevent it from completely falling off the map next year. Whatever it takes, because we can't take another season like this. We are becoming a Quin Snyder Mizzouri in his final years...

We were an Elite 8 team one year ago and we played the NC team closer than anyone else did that year. Now I agree an offseason won't change this team dramatically unless changes are made on the roster. But I expect a lot of roster turnover.

We had a freak on our team lastyear. Someone who doesn't come around every 10-15 years. And our key defensive and fundamental players came from another coach. So no, I'm not impressed.

Well...next season, we will be two years removed from Blake Griffin. We will coming off one of our worst losing streaks in the modern era and returning a group of players that haven't shown the abilty to grasp the team concept nor play with passion on a consistent basis. If you're not worried about next year, then your head is buried in the sand. I'm afraid this program is in trouble....but I hope I'm wrong.

Let's not get crazy here. I agree we need dramatic changes to our roster next year, and a lot of improvement from those coming back, but let's not board up the arena just yet.
