When we played as team connected both on offense and defense we never talked about talent. Quite honestly in hindsight it looks better than we thought now that we have seen Castle fully healthy and DC continuing to improve. But we never considered talent as the most important factor it was how the group complimented each other.
Nope, last season we didn't have enough athleticism. This season we don't have talent.

Hurley and staff better start bringing us some talented players and they better have some wiggle and some athleticism.

You're nuts if you don't have expectations for Hurley and staff to bring in some talent. It's year 7 for Hurley, put up or shut up time.
You’re focusing on the wrong poster bud. Never said we don’t have talent. You said we have more talent than the most talented teams in the country. There’s a happy medium that you can find in that brain of yours.

I'm not focusing on you. I'm telling you it's ridiculous we don't have as much talent as Colorado. It's year 7 for Hurley, we should have more talent than the Buffaloes.

We have no players coming in with wiggle next year as well. It's going to take several recruiting cycles to make us competitive.

Anyone else notice Carlos Boozer is playing for Auburn? He's a 45 year old man, and very strong. He might not have any eligibility left, so he's going by Johni Broome. Auburn is very good, and the reincarnation of Carlos Boozer might win them the title. Looks like the paint matters again

On a sidebar, has Pat Driscoll officially been named Penny's personal referee now? I guess we won't be seeing him too much this year. No problem, always looking for new blood to pick on

Broome is amazing. Really like his game, tremendous on defense, too.

Is this a good data point to show how bad they played yesterday? Would the Huskies have gotten steamrolled like this if they had pulled out the win against Colorado? Tough to say since the transitive property doesn't always work that way.

Yes. Iowa st would’ve beaten us by 20+ . Their defense is elite. I’m glad we avoided playing them.

Is this a joke? I'm thinking it as to be a joke. I must have missed something

Tongue in cheek? Levity? Mocking somebody? Teasing the guys that have seemingly forgot we're the two time defending champions?

On a sidebar, I think Dan has to stop the 3 peat talk and get our boys ready to play. I think the last two games have taught him something too. The name on your shirt nor your reputation will win any games, but it sure will motivate your opponents (including those who pretend to be your fans)

It takes talent to be a complementary player.

Easier to just be an iso player not looking for teammates who are open for a shot or cutting to the basket or who have good inside post position.

Dunno. If we can find a way to beat Dayton, then by the transitive property we would have played Auburn closely.
Well then we lost to Colorado which got smacked by ISU which lost to Auburn

A little concerning that Memphis and Colorado both got absolutely smoked and stomped tonight by Auburn and Iowa St. Big gap between ISU /Auburn and Uconn, clearly. Huskies should improve but tough roe to hoe...

3 hard games in 3 nights is tough on any team But Auburn is for real.
