From the KC Star:
"Then, with Weber’s time in front of microphones closing down, he was asked — OK, yes, I was the one asking — if there were any specific calls aside from the technical he disagreed with. “Yes,” he said. “I’m sure there were, yes. I want to keep my job. I don’t want to get fined. I’ve worked too hard.”

Wow, I have never before heard of Oscar saying such a thing.  Any speculations?

I watched it and he seemed more nervous than usual, but I thought it was due to possibly saying something that would cause a fine from conference office.  It seemed like his mouth was in action with little supporting brain power.

Right now he's feeling the heat of one of those air activated hand warmers. That's about it.

He really does get after it recruiting, actually probably more than most. My problem is does he have any self-awareness and could get someone to go do all that for him with the same, if not better results? I will say the team is not terrible, when they are allowed to just play without oscar trying to babysit them into positions on the court. Maybe more time in Manhattan getting prepped for games so he wouldn't have to do that during the game would help a ton. That's just my opinion, you're smarter than me, love to hear your thoughts on that.

I agree with this.

One of oscar's biggest talking points has always been the number of assists on made baskets. Generally his teams assist on around 60% of their makes. Some of that is guard play, but its also his system and he believes in it. However, this year we're tracking to have one of the lowest of his career. We sit at 56% for the year, but only 47% in Big 12 play, while having one of his better offenses since his NC game team at Illinois. With this group of guys, he needs to let them make plays.

Yeah he's really feeling the heat now, if by heat you mean the warmth of a comfy blanket of nearly unlimited job security.

Come to the hinterlands where tabaccer is still chawed, ask the Cats in the Wild what they think of Oscar, and you will get cussing, spittin, and head shaking.  They like the guys, but are skeptical of Weber as our future.  I don’t chew, so I am content

This is very well said.  I'm 100% certain i might agree with this...probably.

There is no doubt Weber better do good for the remainder of the season and make the NCCA tournament.   The next 4 games are winnable.   TCU is a win.  Georgia a win.  Haaaaaawkers here a win.  At Baylor 50/50.

Oscar is a cockroach. He'll survive. I would love to turn over this core to an energetic, innovative coach next year, but I'm resigned for another two years of Brucetball.
