I dont think you guys realize just how ugly its gotten after you read these postgame comments. SO remember this moment because this could be the loss that turns our season around and we make a deep run in the BE Tournament and NCAA Tournament or when all hell breaks lose and we suffer an early exit in either tournaments.

No chemistry, no leadership. This is gonna get ugly unless someone steps up.

This is a particularly disturbing and gutless, victimized excuse from the guy I had hoped would be the team leader: "We're a young team," Napier said, "and these were really our first away games."

Bazz, if you or one of your pals reads this, and I know you're not asking, but I'm calling you on your anyway. Frickin man up and start taking responsibility for yourself. This is your life, dude. "We were awful. We can do better and we will because I say so," would be a good place to start.

I think this is no different than most years, except that expectations are so high, and we've got the bullseye of a NC on our backs. Also, every starter is either a new player, or fitting into a new role.

We usually have a three game streak in January where we lose and look horrible. Also, the weak early schedule hid some of our shortcomings. Seton Hall and Rutgers are better than they've been in the past too, especially at home.

Things will start fitting into place soon, but we possibly have one more stinker to go.

You're right. Clearly this team is going nowhere, and will be lucky to win 5 more games this year.

These kids are 18-22 years old with almost all of them Freshmen and Sophomores. To expect them to just run the table is unrealistic. Sure there is plenty of talent and potential, but there will be a bunch of bumps in the road. Yes, they looked pretty bad last night, as they did against Seton Hall. But there will be some good games soon. I really think tempo is the key and this team needs to get it well into the 70's to look good.
