Holy crap 

[Rage Against the McKee]

Everybody who still goes to these games should chant do-do-do-do-do whenever we are shooting free throws this year.

K-State finished last season 17-16, including a 5-13 mark in the Big 12. The Wildcats lost four games by four or less points last year that K-State head coach oscar Weber said boiled down to wasted possessions and inexperience.

To remedy the former, K-State has strained its focus on improving its assist-to-turnover ratio, where it ranked eighth in the Big 12 last season.   

“Little things really make a difference. You saw the football game (against Texas Tech) Saturday. The team that makes the least mistakes in those close games usually wins the game,” Weber said. “Our biggest nemesis was taking care of the ball and having assists — giving ourselves a chance on possessions. That’s something we’ve harped on all summer.”

I'd really like a single 'con combo'n these 2 dudes:

You know what really helps your team get assists?  Multiple players that are good at scoring.

[pissclams]

the team that's best from behind the FIBA 3 point line usually wins the game.  go get 'em.

He definitely should have thrown his players under the bus, rather than compliment them for trying too hard. #goEtard

Yes, very weird that the media would make a big deal of such an innocuous comment.  They must not have been part of the 7K in attendance to see for themselves what an electric environment it was.

[Skipper44]

Is this the first time our 7th place coach has complained about fan support?

Well, it was in excess of 8,000, and relative to other crowds they've played before I think it's a fair characterization.

If we're going to do this thread, we need to do it right (eg, schedule makers, flu, travel, etc).

...in an arena that holds 19,000, in our #1 city for alumni population, and the crowd was already thinning out during the first half. It was the worst KC crowd I can remember, there was nothing beyond polite clapping in my section. This was a textbook #exbruce. Puts the blame on someone else and is totally nonsensical. What more could you ask for?

I suppose it lines up.  When the crowd was at its relative largest and loudest at the start of the game, the 'cats sucked b/c of the emotion.  Once the crowd started thinning out and shutting up, oscar was able to get the guys locked in.

If you're a true KState fan contemplating hoops attendance, you now know what to do.

[sys]

the a.d. should better publicize 30, no tourney.  i think people could be made excited about the chance to witness history.

The optimal kstatesports scenario would be to distribute all fOOD tickets, have everyone show up at the outset for a pregame photo opp, but then clear out or at least shut up once the players come out.

“We are boogered up a little bit,” Weber, K-State’s basketball coach said. “Claws’s foot was hurt, Kamau was coming off a sprained ankle, D.J. (Johnson) gives his all. But that’s everyone. It’s that time of year. It’s gut-check time. We need to see what we can do.”

Classic oscar, give the excuse, followed by the qualifier.

He's got it down to a science.

did Wade get hurt during the game? I must have missed it and was only half paying attention.

Yeah, apparently he tweaked it last week. A lingering injury from breaking his foot at some point in high school.
