Message: [QUOTE="djct1999, post: 4189816, member: 2281"] Thank god AD DB isn't as impulsive and insufferable as some of you after a loss. Its indisputable that the last 5 halves of basketball have been brutal. Our offense seems out of sorts, particularly our leader Cole, and shots aren't falling. It happens over the course of a season. But newsflash, this team isn't good enough to go undefeated. Losses were bound to happen. They probably stole one in DePaul, got one stolen from them in Creighton, and I think most of us here if being objective arent that surprised by yesterday. You can criticize Hurley, you can criticize the kids, or both. The fact remains this rebuild is a work in progress. I dare anyone to name a better hire for this program than Dan Hurley. That still remains. As for the kids, like most teams, they will have ups and downs. The entire offense runs through Cole. Whether he is gassed, mentally fatigued, or slightly injured, who knows. What I know is this team doesn't have a player, outside of maybe Martin, who can take over for a sustained period of time with Cole less than 100%. Sure this last week wasn't great. Nothing else has changed. This team is decent. They can compete. They will go to the tourney. They may win a game or three. And its a work in progess, short term and long. Pricing this team to perfection is as silly as many of the reactions I have read lately, [/QUOTE]
