_Osby was solid. He's easily our best player, and it's not even close.

_Grooms had one of his best games all season, except for his turnovers.

_Fitz all but disappeared. Again. One rebound is pathetic for a guy his size.

_Clark was good on the boards for the fourth consecutive game, but could not find his shot or his handles.

_Pledger played poorly for the second straight game. He moved like he had a ten pound weight strapped to each ankle. I have defended him the entire season. But there is no defense for the way he has played in the last two games.

_No help off of the bench. So what else is new? A combined 3 points and 3 rebounds for Blair, Washington and Neal is so bad, I'm at a loss for words to describe how I feel about it.

Agreed 1000%

Agree, if only he was a threat offensively

I don't understand it either, than again , the 1/16" vertical might explain the lack of rebounding.

Clark was good on the boards for the fourth consecutive game, but could not find his shot or his handles.

I don't think he will ever reach his potential. He is a horrendous shooter and can't dribble a basketball to save his life. He is an athlete and nothing more than that.

Pledger played poorly for the second straight game. He moved like he had a ten pound weight strapped to each ankle. I have defended him the entire season. But there is no defense for the way he has played in the last two games.

He just might be the slowest guard in the history of OU basketball. :facepalm

Only one more year of having no bench. :dance005:
 
I'll harbor no lingering resentment toward them (unlike the way I feel toward some of our recent early departures) -- in fact, I'll wish them all the best as I wave goodbye -- but I have to say I'm ready to see some of these guys graduate and let us start fresh with a new crop of Kruger recruits. I don't mean to be overly harsh, but sheesh.
 
Pledger might be tired. He has carried the team most of the season. I wish he had finished stronger but I am not going to criticize him. The team would be a lot worse without Pledger.
