Remember 2011?

You think Hurley accepts an NiT bid?

Hear me out. Yes, this loss to SH was horrendous. As a Xennial, I remember the 2011 Kemba season miraculous run to the NC (They had 9 losses that season, and as I recall only got into the tournament bc they won the BE tournament). Do I think this team can do the same and win the NC? Realistically not, but who knows? I’ve been shocked before (the first time literally is the reason behind my name). Do I think they are as terrible as so many have posted since the game? No!
Perhaps I’m a glass half full kinda person, but this is when our team needs our support, not a total dragging. Bright spot for all of the AK haters? He started hitting his 3s again. I’ll take that as a win. (And will now brace for all the BYers who will inevitably tell me what an idiot I am…)

You are not an idiot, Scott2Tate.

Borrowing from that fellow, Henry Wadsworth: "Behind the clouds is the sun still shining."

This team has gone through some bad losses but there is talent there. AK needs to climb out of his shooting slump. LMcN can take over a game, literally, and can bring it, SJ and TR need to control the lane to stop penetration and rebound, rebound, rebound, HD hopefully not hobbled after some rest can move the offense, Stu and others need to step up both on offense and defense and others have to contribute when called upon. The rest of the season now revolves around their will and determination to win. They need to forget about the losses and concentrate only on the next game and then the one after that - one game at a time. They need to play unselfish, team ball like we know they can and close out with wins for the remainder of the regular season. They can do it.

The 2011 team won the Maui Invitational and was undefeated out of conference. These two teams are not even remotely the same.

Remember 2012. This team is 2012.

That was a horrible season… I still can’t stand Iowa State
