The issues causing the slow starts are numerous on both ends of the court, including effort and preparation.
“You can throw it all in there. It’s all of the above,” said Westicles, a senior guard. “There’s no excuse for us being 17 down in the first half as good as a team as we have. We should be disgusted with ourselves with how we played.”
The Wildcats (15-6) are dealing with injuries to point guard Deathbite (ankle) and forwards D.J. Johnson (hamstring, foot) and Claws (foot), but their problems go deeper.
“We have to do a better job of getting prepared and taking the games more serious,” Westicles said. “We came out with too much of a lackadaisical approach and it showed in the first half. We have to make some adjustments and do things different.
“We have some guys boogered up and that affected us, but there are some adjustments we can make as a team. They have pride and heart for playing through some minor injuries but we have to get healthy. This is the crossroad of the season with important games coming up and if we want to make a push for the (NCAA) tournament these are the ones we have to get.”

If the "boogered" quote wasn't Westicles, then the Capital Journal needs a new editor.eff

That was oscar begging for an invite last year

oscar Weber will get that retention bonus, and will coach at K-State through the end of existing contract, unless we have a new AD somewhere in there.

This all smells of the Wooly era.
To be fair, this is the Wooly era at its best. oscar already has as many quality wins this year as Wooly's best seasons.

Asbury is FIRED!! YES>... NEXT CHAPTER!!!!
Hire Wooly. Mmmm. OK. It'll work out, I just know it....
1. Soften the OOC to ridiculous levels
2. Get the donors in your back pocket because you're nice.
3. Lose close games against anyone with a pulse. (but we are competing!!!)
4. Follow up decent home wins with head scratcher losses
5. Talk about being a bubble team in January early Feb.
6. No dance but the apologists call it progress.
Next thing you know you wake up and it's 2006.

Asbury is probably a better comparison. This is somewhat similar to the 97 or 98 seasons. Even then, Asbury never beat anyone close to West Virginia even.
You guys need to brush up on your Altman/Asbury/Wooly history.

I agree with you on that, I'm referring more specifically to the (probable) lack of respect these guys have for oscar. I will say, of the teams with oscar's guys, this one seems to have the best chemistry, but lately it just reminds me of a dark past. oscar is a better coach, but I'm not sure he is a better motivator of young men than Wooly was.

Guys, stop with Wooly comparisons. He never had us even close to this much success in a single season. Really.

Wooly inherited a dumpster fire. oscar inherited a program. Starting points make a big difference in comparison. I think oscar is getting better players, barely.

That's fair. Asbury's final year is probably my low point of following K-State basketball. It was awful.
After oscar burned down his own program, he has recovered far better than I expected.

I could simply be forgetting something here, but do his players ever stand up for him? Do they ever publicly have his back? It never happened with Wooly, I don't think it's happening with oscar. Think about some of the most consistent coaches in the nation -- not even at the top programs -- the connection/bond between coach and player is strong. I just don't think oscar has that ability and it ultimately limits us to ever getting where we were just a half dozen years ago.

5-9
7-7
4-10
He would not have made the NIT twice the way it is currently formatted. Maybe not even once.

TuckNation no doubt will once again point to the players as being the issue, completely absolving Weber of any responsibility.
oscar Weber will get that retention bonus, and will coach at K-State through the end of existing contract, unless we have a new AD somewhere in there.
Sad, but probably true.

I don't know why oscar can't froth them up into a fury a giveadang insane stupor. DJamer, Flush, and Claws play like they would rather lose.a family jewel than lose a game. Take them out and all we have are store bought toematers, good looking but no taste.Whoever is playing this sock, stop

He may not always play well, but I can't fault Sneed's effort. I think the most inconsistent guys are Brown and Stokes. I'm not sure I'd say Wade is the hardest working guy either.This sock too

oscar has Stockholm-ed these guys pretty bad. Won't be long before they toss themselves under the bus saying they don't run things correctly and it's not oscar's fault.This seems to be occurring. Ithink the IowaState game damaged their fighting spirit.

i'd say carlbe, DJamer, and sneed are the only guys i don't worry about effort wise. unfortunately, even while playing hard they sometimes suck.
