We are not merely a bunch of freshmen though. Tyler and Chism are juniors. Williams-soph? Maze, junior. JP Prince-senior?

Point is, we have a nucleus in place so the freshmen should be role players. We should not have to depend on them.

Let Chism and Tyler sniff some model plane glue and decide to go to the NBA and see how we are next year.

Yeah, well, it's January and I don't think we have a single player on this team that cares enough to attempt to play defense for the next two months.

I think it was Jay Bilas during the game that said it didn't seem like any of our players cared when KY scored in their face. I thought that was pretty well put. Somehow this team needs to take it as a personal slight when they get scored on.

The basketball team against a "that guy" is kinda like the football team's defense against QBs for awhile there. Any QB we faced was just about making a Heisman highlight reel.

I think it's just the UT way?

That would require them to pull their heads out of their asses, and it ain't going to happen. Games like these make me understand why there are so many UT football/UNC or Duke basketball fans.

Not ready to write Bruce off yet.

As far as I'm concerned, he has til the end of conference play to get this team to play some semblance of halfcourt offense and defense. If he can't, then I am sure there is an opening somewhere in the Horizon League.

I can think of at least two examples that have already been addressed in this thread. Granted, you still have time for the other one to work out in your favor, I just wouldn't count on it.

well if you're talking about me predicting that we would beat kentucky by 10, i think we should have but there was no way that anyone could have predicted that jodie meeks would set a record and put himself in the running for NPOY.. if everything would have gone as i expected it to (containing Pattersona and holding Meeks to his avg, i knew Meeks would get his but i didnt know he was 'gonna do it like that') then we would have beat UK by 10

That is still a cop out, and a pretty lame one at that.

By the way, the Michigan St., Oklahoma, and Arizona St. thing started in this thread.

Don't forget the scoop he dropped on us about Negedu getting Williams' minutes.

You made any purchases lately? you know.. the ones mama always told you not to play with because they could hurt you.. such as things that have fire, guns, knives, vacations to 500 ft cliffs, etc.....?

No, why? Did Negedu? Is that why he's actually played less since you tried to claim on your own that he'd be seeing more minutes?

several got close to making that prediction. 50 wasn't an uncommon number.
