So basically same ole same ole.

 

[JBaker]

Tyler Neal is literally just a body on defense. Has he ever guarded anyone?

 

[JBaker]

Put you hands up on a god damn close out!
Does this team understand the basic fundamentals of basketball?

Dude, seriously? Come on man.

:facepalm:facepalm:facepalm

 

[JBaker]

Dude, seriously? Come on man.

Yes, seriously.
I've seen at least 4 plays this HALF in which an OU defender has closed out on a shooter with his hand down by his side. That's middle school defensive fundamentals.

The next question is whether this team will win another game this year.

 

[DenverSooner]

Two questions:

1. Why the hell is TAMU-TTech on TV and OU-Texas isn't?

2. WHY ON EARTH is this not being broadcast in HD!? What century is this?

It is on TV in HD in Austin.

It seems like they mailed this season in.

 

[JBaker]

Yeah, I ended up finding it in HD in Dallas.
Still not sure why ESPN3 didn't have it in HD though.

 

[NickZepp]

I don't think I would want to watch this OU team in HD, they might actually look worse.

Yes, seriously.

It's all Capel's fault.

 

[Soonerman82]

Score please?

 

[seniorsooner]

61-54 Texas 2:45 to go

 

[Stikboy]

It's all Capel's fault.

Tired sarcasm.

Truth is, is that most of this abomination, is in fact Capel's fault.

 

[sperry]

What a horrible season. Not sure I'll tune in again this year, too frustrating to watch.

 

[WTSooner]

We just have a lot of dumb players too. Did Osby really think he could slap a player without the ball, and not get called for an intentional? Come on man, there are smart ways to do that, and slapping him isn't one of them.

I rarely understand what the hell the players on our team are doing anymore.
We don't rotate on defense. We don't put our hands up. We commit weird fouls. We don't move the ball on offense.

Bottom line with this talent we wont win any more games next year. This team needs a BUNCH of players ran off, we need some room and alot of new blood and talent.
I said it last week and I'll say it again, this team/program needs a toliet flush. These players just don't have the talent or toughness to ever win consistently .

 

[NickZepp]

The problem with this team is the same as we always really thought it was since Newell was kicked off. They can't win any games with only one guard playing consistent ball. We need Clark to be a consistent contributor next year and a newcomer to score some on offense.
