Veitenheimer still starting for Lemon.

Lemon in the game.
End of first quarter OU 18 Wichita 20
Simpson on bench,,,missed two FTs that would have given OU the lead. Wichita is 3 of 4 from three and 57% from the field. Not bad for a lousy shooting team.
When a team that can't shoot against bad teams suddenly hits you for 66% from the field and 7 of 9 from three, you just have to shake your head and wonder. Our turnovers aren't helping us. Every mistake that we have made had resulted in a Wichita State score. We have 3 more turnovers, and they have two more Rebounds. They scored off their OR. We did twice. But, we also turned it over after getting an offensive board.
Simpson just can't do anything right.
I agree, Simpson has been worse than she normally is the past two or three games, yet she STILL stays in and doesn't get benched. This is the reason why I believe SC has lost it and is a horrible coach. Rather than give other taller more coordinated and athletic players a chance she sticks with her favorite and has cost us a couple games, IMO. Simpson is not the only problem though, our other players simply are not disciplined and do not value the ball any moreso than they did last year. I see no improvement and I don't believe any will come further down the season. I'm done with this team at this point, because of the coaching. It's too frustrating to watch the games and waste time and money on. I say let SC go after this season and hire a new, more motivated coach.
My family quit going to the games last year along with my donation to the program. SC's "team" is a clown show.When a team that can't shoot against bad teams suddenly hits you for 66% from the field and 7 of 9 from three, you just have to shake your head and wonder.

What is the season outlook? Wichita State is not ranked in the Top 150 NCAA Division 1 teams by Massey. Our ladies came back against a team that is going nowhere and could not overcome the terrible first half. It is rational to view OU WBB as a train wreck with little hope for the future. How can you recruit quality players to a program in flames? Maybe the volume poster can enlighten the ignorant.
