I want to think this.

the team can't and won't play this poorly all season long.
they're good athletes and have shown the ability to learn to play together last season and some this year (the arizona outlier)
so to me the question isn't will we improve, because i know we will.   really it comes down to, at what point in the season will we straighten things out.

we're 5-4 with these non-cons left:
sav st (3-7) pud
a&m (6-2 w/ no good wins and loses to dayton/baylor) we should win/be competitive
texas southern (1-6) pud
georgia (5-3 w/ best win vs colorado)  this team reminds me of us, but w/ dumbstick

assume wins over the puds = +2, = 7 wins, and split the Georgia/A&M games = 8 wins going into b12 play

then we hit our 18 game conference schedule which currently looks pretty rough ridin' tough.
#16 OU, #8 UT, #14 ISU, #10 KU, #22 WVU
assuming loses to all of the ranked teams, both home and away = 10 loses out of a possible 18 games.  that leaves 8 games up for grabs.
even if we win all 8, which we won't, that would total 16 wins.

woof.  what  a rough ridin' embarrassment and disappointment.  currie you rough ridin' idiot.

I have to believe we'll win a couple of those tough games at home, but will probably lose a road game or two to TCU, Tech, or OSU. I'm seeing an 8-10 or 9-9 Big 12, granted I'm generally optimistic even as hard as it is with this team.

Anyone that thinks this team is talented is complete morons. This goes back to original hatred of Duche Webber. HE CAN'T RECRUIT OR TEACH TOUGHNESS. Comparing this team to Franks's teams is like comparing the rest of the league right now to our current crap show.

Franks halftime interview vs. Pussy Webber's.

Frank said he would destroy these guys if they didn't compete. Sir Squeaky Voice will give them a big hug and say "try harder boys"

Webber is a Big F'in Pussy and our guys play like it. CURRIE CAN SUCK MY BALLS.

The strange thing is how even the Purdue game this year pulled me in. The first half of that game was very fun to watch and it appeared we may be pretty good based on that. Even the way we played against Arizona was encouraging to me. Pitt was absolutely disgusting.

However, I didn't get to watch Long Beach or Tenn, so I've missed a lot of the bad. And this team has had plenty of bad, its not like its an isolated half or two.

To get started I'm going to free associate a little. I want to let this knucklehead know just what kind of a man he's dealing with and that there's little room for games. First off, I see the situation as such: I am an animal and he is my oppressor. Does he not oppress us all? I know why the caged bird sings, John: Monson. Tennessee. Bradley.

Realistically, we'll get two and three star recruits -- Frank or oscar or whoever. With that being a structural condition of our program you need someone who will: 1) have a fearless team, 2) have a team that is in shape, and 3) have a team that plays hard at all times.

At this point, with this team, I'm not sure we have any of the three. I know we definitely don't have #2.

I guess.  I just remember that it was a big season (coming off the NIT, basically everyone questioning whether Frank was a one year wonder, etc.).  Then we struggle with Boston, lose to a below avg Ole Miss team...but then beat a good Dayton...then Ft Hays State, I mean, my god, that was fantastic, then we basically rattle off some of the really good basketball from Wazzu through basically beating #1 Texas (even though we dropped one @ MU a few games before).

Remember Jamar kicking a guy in the head in Puerto Rico? I mean, we just don't get those kinds of moments any more. If we had more crap like that going on, I think it would be more fun. We just have a pretty boring team, regardless of the results.

i think jevon has it in himself to throw a basketball at someone or something.  :dunno:

oscar going from his hands intertwined at his crotch in to two footed hop and arms dramatically raised while yelling "HANDS!" gets me at least once a game even though it is entirely expected.

I think he just has a bad coach. He has the raw skill set and attitude to be good.

If Snyder retires and football sucks again maybe we can get a good ball coach and return to good times again

He is a freak athlete. If he played for Self or Hoiberg he would be about 100x better than he is right now.

He's the best in the world at shooting the ball just slightly too hard off the backboard on a layup so that it hits the backboard and then the front of the rim and then bounces off.

My son was born on that day and I watched it in the hospital. Just a great all around day. IIRC some of you studs were there.

Super good at shooting like a foot too far to the left, too.
