There is absolutely nothing positive to say about this pathetic, embarrassing effort.

Shame on me for being sucked in by this team (and more importantly this coach).

We're going to go 0-4 against the big boys the rest of the way, and will probably only steal one more roadie down the stretch. We could very well lose to ISU at home as well, we're not above a letdown like that. WVU was a mirage. This is not a tournament team.

We go 9-9, beat KU at home and earn a 9 seed where we lose the 11:20 am Thursday game to the 3rd place team in the A10 - this will be the high water mark of the oscar era so lay back and enjoy it

1) Game wasn't on at the beginning, so I don't know how far Kam's first 2pt make was....but in our first 17 Possessions we hucked up 8 2pt shots from 16-19 feet. Made 2 (3-9 if Kam make was deep 2). That's ridiculous. There are probably some games we don't shoot 9 long 2 pt jumpers.  So of our first 14 shots, 2 were inside 10 feet and then DJamer had a tip in. 

2) All those lovely jump shots and us having little effort on Def boards. At 8:00, it's 25-11 and they have 11 2nd chance pts.  They had 4 ORs before we got our 1st DR

3) game was pretty much lost in those first 12 minutes.  They ended half on 13-2 run countering our 9-1 run

Count down to a few games from now when oscar tosses them both under the bus for being soft and not leading this team by fighting through it.

Doubtful we get a 9 seed if we go 9-9. 

Getting to 10-8 with 1st round matchup vs Isu in Sprint is just what we have to hope for. This way we avoid having to maybe play Huggy with a 9-9 record.

You're always buying in, it's OK when you're young but when you get old and you know how long it takes to become successful you just can't put up with the billshit that is Currie and Weber.  If I knew I had 6 months to live I'd run them both over in the street just so you loyal and good K-Staters could have the joy of a good fan experience.  The Frank years gave me hope and joy, going to Vegas and Omaha, Salt Lake, but now we go nowhere.  This crap show must stop and the best way is to boycott games, I gave my good season tickets up in Weber's second year and I'll be damned if I'll give KSU a penny for anything until that SOB is gone.  I'm not the only one who feels ths way and I have many friends who gave up primo season tickets because of the whole oscar fiasco.  Sorry for the rant, but who's with me!!!1!

He is over worked. oscar hasn't done a good job managing minutes or building depth. It is something to look out as the season progresses.

DJamer has had 2 bad games in a row. Like 5-13 on FGs. He didn't get a Reb in Isu game til mid 2nd hf, then he missed crunch time FTs. Today he just complained alot and let Tenn big guys outplay him by a ways.  This combined with not getting much from gimpy Dean and our inside game had a poor week

2 games this week where we didn't hit 50% on 2pt, 33% on 3pt%, not 70% on FT...And had under 0.80 PPP in 1st half.   

Main issue is no driving the ball, or drive and dish for good open shot.

True. But down 17 at half because you didn't run offense either game doesn't make up for it.

Today Sneed airballed a 5 foot shot after getting 2 guys up on headfake. Next Poss, he gave an OR and 3pt play

Kam got a layup scored on him. Next Poss, drives in and gets layup blocked. DJamer missed 2 point blank shots. Even our 2nd half wasn't that great. We just didn't chuck up dumb 16-19 footers

2nd straight game we just chucked jumpsuits in 1st half. That's not what he wants. We didn't shoot 55% from 2pt (best in B12 thru 7 gms), shooting stupid long range 2pt jumpers.

We shot above 50% from 2pt & above 33% from 3pt for 6 straight gms.  Then fell apart vs Isu/Tenn

Contested 16-19 foot shots are worst shots u can take. Stats back that up.

55% from 2, 39% from 3 non con

56 from 2.   37 from 3 first 7 conference gms

Seems like we had an identity.  Under 50 on 2pt, underv33 on 3pt last 2 gms.... Hard to win on road when u go away from season long trend

We're going to go 0-4 against the big boys the rest of the way, and will probably only steal one more roadie down the stretch. We could very well lose to ISU at home as well, we're not above a letdown like that. WVU was a mirage. This is not a tournament team.

that isn't how oscar operates.

Yeah, this team is good enough to do better than the last 2 years. I won't be surprised at all if we beat KU and win another couple or road games. I'd say 1 more loss at home and 2 more road wins. That still leaves us firmly on the bubble.
