Read what I wrote. You all seem to be able to do that reasonably well. I said We never win when were a dog. We were a favorite in the Florida and cincy games. Go do some research.
 
Never thought I would wish for jake voskuhl. Lol. This team is really not strong inside and that is the Achilles heel of this team. AB needs more time to develop and to and pn are backup centers at best.

2 years in a row they just quit against Louisville.

I don't think they quit. They were outcoached, outplayed, outmuscled, outhustled, and showed no poise.

Ollie's a second year coach. I think he's got a great future. But it isn't a surprise if he's outcoached by two HOF coaches at this stage in each of their careers.

I don't disagree. But, I hope they figure it out so we can make adjustments come tourney time.
 
At some point you have to win the games that you aren't supposed to win to be great. Just hasn't happened this year. And the committee will penalize us because of it. I see an 8 seed In our future

People didn't realize how good Florida was yet. Do you actually think if everyone knew that UF was top 3 in the country (the line obviously would have been different) Ollie would have coached differently and lost the game?

Edit. The line at Memphis was UM -6.

The truth is that the jury is still out on Ollie. The only way a coach is judged is on his NCAA record. Ollie doesn't have one.

If we lose in the first round, that is a terrible job. If we make a run, there will be hope for the future.

But make no mistake, not a single thing before his NCAA record matters. If he was 60-0 at this point and got knocked out in round one. Then that's all that matters.

Jury still out? We are much more successful than I thought possible, and the reason is KO. What have you done for me lately... great attitude, great fan support.

Yeah, but that doesn't get decided after year 1 either. JC has gotten bounced in round 1. Made the NIT a number of times too.

Ollie gets some time.

No, I'm pretty sure much of this display is alcohol and drug free.

We have exactly 1 legit road win all year.

What would you have done differently in any of those games? We're still suffering player wise from being banned from the tournament. This team is Napier and a prayer. I'm shocked we won 20+ last year and I'm thrilled we won as many as we did this year. Ollie's starting to recruit his kind of team. Look what he did with someone else's recruits.

No I count that was a . g game to 999…….he only comes here when they lose I'm sure…..pretty easy to figure out!

In our"big" games position by position do we have better players out there this year than our opponents. Probably not. Bazz yup then it goes the other way pretty fast. I hate to say this but Boat just isn't that good. Yup I said it. 37% shooting from a 5'11" guard doesn't cut it. KO has won more with less than HCJC did with Dyson sticks and crew!

KO doesn't have his players yet and it makes a difference. He has done avery good job with his non-prototypical players. Someone commented that JC wouldn't let this happen, but I distinctly remember a game where Louisvilee was running us around in circles under his tutelage. i think they beat us by 40 or 50 if i am not mistaken. So *t does happen. KO is doing a good job with this team with some quality wins. The talent just isn't there right now.

Terrible match up is code name for more talented. I don't care about the way the other team plays good talented teams find ways to stay competitive. Calhoun teams did. So any team with big guys that plays physical defense is a bad matchup for us? Wow looks like we aren't going far this year. KO got out coached and our guys were just not playing smart today and got out played. Recipe for disaster when we live off one player. Stop SN and you stop uconn. Kind of sad!

Louisville is better and more talented than us. That in part makes a bad matchup. But, we have and will struggle against physical equally athletic teams. Especially ones that have physical talent down low and in the college game Harrell is as physical as they come. He's a man and we have nothing even remotely close to him. We were definitely outcoached (by a hall of famer at that). We are an extremely flawed team in that we really have 1 1/2 (Boat has his great moments and his wtf moments) guys who can create a shot. Everything is really dependent on Bazz making plays. However, there might be 2 or 3 guys in the country who can equal Bazz even on a bad day and Russ Smith, even though he didn't look to score, did that today.
 
Whaaaaaa. I say we never win a game when were an underdog and all you babies can't take it.
