Ollie finally lost them

I think it is BS Original Post Theme.

How in hell can you think that you can continue to play at such a very high level (beat SU, play Marquette damn close; lose to NC State at end; lose to UNM close; beat Washington; OT to Georgetown; etc) ... and keep that going if you lose several key players and keep playing some that are basically incapacitated. Be proud of 2012-2013; look forward to the Real Kevin Ollie Program coming to a CT venue soon.

I'm just objectively pointing out there seems to be a double standard. I guess the pc complex has grown too large for you to see that.

I though I would look at the two teams and there injuries during those loses to see if there is a double standard. Uconn lost to USF, which has an RPI of 131. During that game they were without their leading scoring, there 5th and 7th leading scorer, and there 4th leading scorer although playing was ineffective due to wrist injury. PC lost to Penn State which has an RPI of 174, Brown - RPI of 235, Depaul - RPI 196, and BC - RPI of 125. For the Penn State game they were without Cotton, Council and Dunn, their 1st, 4th and 6th scorer, so that was pretty close to a wash. Against BC they were without Council their 4th leading scorer. Against Brown they were without Cotton, their leading scorer. Finally against Depaul they were without only Kofone their 9th leading scorer.

So I don't think there is a double standard. PC lost to worse teams and with the exception of 1 game did that with only one key player out. I will give them the Penn State game as they were playing short handed like Uconn was the last few games.
