Team & coach sucks, we 're going to lose to our hated rival, and we're debating profanity on the 'Yard?

This must be what he.....eeck looks like.

"profanity"

 

[Husky SZN]

Getting harder to argue that we haven't become a mid major

 

[nomar]

I can handle that.

If you can't, then you're gonna have some real problems.

 

[KingAG]

Such an anti-climactic game.

KO’s press = Swiss cheese

 

[NielsisGood]

You're the one who sought out the argument lol. You literally replied to someone who said he had a bad handle to say his handle was fine.

His handle is the least of his issues. He's a college wing with dim NBA prospects and you want him to be LeBron with the ball. How bout he focuses on adding some weight, lift, speed, toughness, quick decision making, decision making in general, full extension to make use of his length, etc.

We won the second half by 2.

We just turned it over so much, and the refs killed us especially with Cobb out.

We need a point guard badly. I've said that for almost two years now...

 

[ZenConn]

Love Diarra a warrior but a long way to go in the overall understanding of the game on D especially

And working on his FT shooting...

 

[jayteeman]

Alot of opportunity for the freshmen

 

[sportsart]

lol ok piss off it's 2017 and most aren't "believers" anymore. if you're that worked up about it you shouldn't be on the internet

Dude you have to be the biggest doosh on this board, and that's saying something.

Look up narcissist. You'll find your picture. Not just talking about this topic.

Get a life. Redditt loves people like you.

Our program is dogs#^t and JMick used our Lord and Savior's name in vain.

 

[Fishy]

We’re poorly coached, don’t have enough talent and we need a point guard and a front court.

Other than that, I’m optimistic.

Remember the NCAA bubble? Yeah, we’re not even close to that.

lol I'm fine with it. at least I'm not delusional

Mr. Slave would love the direction this thread just took.

 

[3rdbass]

Unfortunately TL decided to take the game off and it was Jalen all by himself. Jalen is going to have to see he is the only good player and make sure that the offense goes through him if we are going to have a chance at the tourney this year.

 

[housekeys]

At this point, it is no longer about wins and losses for me. It is about the eye test and product improvement. Better get a good product out there because the wins will not come otherwise.

Disappointing performance. Some bright spots here and there and they didn't give up but this clearly wasn't among the classic UConn-Syracuse battles...not even close. This team will improve but there are some missing pieces. We could use a scoring presence inside, even if it's Diarra or Carlton picking up garbage points from offensive rebounds. Too much of a one trick pony right now and also too many costly defensive lapses for easy Orange buckets.

 

[BlueDogs]

KO sucks. The program is a disgrace and nothing is going to change in the near future. We don't have the team talent, size or basketball skills to compete anywhere near where we are accustomed. I appreciate the occasional effort some put out there, but that doesn't make a team and KO doesn't know how to recruit one, build one or teach one.

Yes not 4 combos.

We need everything, by far the biggest need is a coach.

Yeah wins are going to be few and far between if we don't improve soon.

Well, not a great performance on national TV.

Good

-Eric Cobb is good. I like him. He's rough around the edges but he's a legitimate piece on a good team. Excellent passer. Less fouls would be nice but the refs weren't doing him any favors. Hard to believe this was the guy in this year's class people were so uncertain about.

-Christian Vital is plucky. I'm not sure he's a bedrock piece or anything - but he's a sparkplug off the bench type of guy on a good team. I like him.

-Energy in the second half was very good. They pushed the ball and got out front and they were right there. They had all the chances in the world to get back into it. Just didn't capitalize. I just wish they could find that for 40 minutes.

-I still like Diarra a lot. Could benefit from learning how to shoot free throws. But lots of tools - I think he's going to be a very good player before all is said and done.


Bad

-Almost everything else.

-Our bigs are non-competitive outside of Cobb. We are so undersized it's painful. Simple eye test pointed to a power five conference school vs a team that's not close to being that.

-It's the same thing - again - every year, every big game. They get blown out of their shoes for 20 minutes, give you 10 where you start thinking about how good they could really be before they do everything possible to kill their own momentum and fade down the stretch. it's like watching a movie on a loop at this point

-Coaching adjustments were just soooo slow tonight. Ollie's gotta do better.

-I can't understand for the life of me how anyone thinks Larrier and Adams are ready for pro basketball.

The entire game the press did nothing

If you can't, then you're gonna have some real problems.

I can. No problems here.
