Selection Sunday with reactions

I know there's a lot of pessimism because of this but next years team has a real legit shot at being a top 10-15 team with a couple more pieces. I wouldn't have said near that same thing coming into this year even with the hot start. Big 12 play was just gonna be too tough. 8-9 wins should have put them in the tournament.

This is just laughable. We lose our best player and will probably lose multiple others. You probably can’t name more than 3 guys who will be on our roster, and our coach has shown himself to be a complete loser.

Based on what? This is a crazy post.

Yep. Just depends on the admin if they want to make the investment. They're very close.

It’s obvious to me that Uzan is gone, our “lottery pick.”

Yea he and JM will be getting ready for the green room at the draft.

How do you figure this? Soares is gone. Dart became a deadeye 3 shooter. Idk what there is to be positive got except no big 12

Nit… no

Nobody on here was calling him a lotto pick. He was projected in the second round, which is still my projection.

Well they were but it’s not worth arguing about. He isn’t even a second round pick now

Of the wnba?

Jacob Groves made the right call by transferring. Good for him. Soares should have stayed at Oregon.

Maybe we could play the NIT in a frat house and Majerus lite can buy beers for all the students.

Feel bad for Soares....he played his ass off. And yes, hire Larry Eustachy....free natty lites in Norman after conference wins

I said I would eat crow, I thought we were for sure in.

Never has a team ever had zero q2-q4 losses and not made the tournament ... And we are the first.

My apologies to all who I doubted.

I also said if Moser missed year 3, I am ready to move on. I am ready. I'm also pissed tf off

 

[red recluse]

can apply that earlier boynton logic, nil cheaper than to replace, which is where focus should be always.

 

[TEvans4Three]

Virginia getting in is BS tho.

First, retention. Retention of assistant coaches and players. This will be the first full off-season with the player development guy they got from the Hawks.

Second, players need to develop. They've seen their new roles (Uzan/Oweh) time to take another leap.

Third, need to find an above the rim center and shooting in the portal. This is where Joe C has to come in and decide if he cares about basketball or not.

Spoiler alert: he doesn’t

Not as pissed as most of us that are big b-ball guys. MM isn't the same without your team in it.

Let's put a pin in it and revisit when his college career ends.

Damn sure cares about "Natty Patty" or whatever TF that softball coaches nickname is.

Maybe if he goes somewhere that can develop talent
