Title: Adversity and maybe a bunch of other things: 2019-20

"Everyone has adversity during the year. How do you deal with it? That's part us, as a staff, part leadership and then part them," Weber said after Monday's game. "What is it about? Toughness. Do you have toughness? Do you have effort? Do you have a great attitude? And then what's your motive? Why are you here? Are you trying to help K-State have a successful season? If you add those all up, you have a great team. That's what we have to really focus on."

Wasn't the adversity thing a thing to mock brucexcuses? This seems like the opposite of a brucexcuse. Getting pretty hard to troll oscar, even when his team appears to be kinda crap.

No need for this thread, especially after this upcoming recruiting class. Ppl who’ve moved on past pre oscar knew this was coming. I still can’t believe he won the Big 12 with his own players. I’ll give him this year to bandage our youth. We’ll be fine.

Whiffing multiple years on a decent post player got us here. I just want him to play the three frosh 20+ minutes a game so the year won’t be a complete waste.

Blaming Oscar and wanting him fired after every poor game is the most lazy, pouty ass take OAT. He’s taken us to the tourney 5 out of 7 years, won two big 12 titles, an elite 8, and is bringing in like a top 5 recruiting class OAT at K-State. If you wanna be a dumbass, do this with your friends at the bar, but don’t make us read your dumbassery on this board, you lil fuckying cry baby. The man gets a year to try and rebuild after losing 3 of the top 15 scorers in K-State history.

I've wanted his ass fired since Day 1, so eff the ffuck off. If you want to be a dumbass Oscar suckup, move on over to K-State fans. That's what it for, Oscar love and no dissent.
Worthless Oscar doesn't have a clue the fifth-year senior transfer rule exists, much to the harm of this and last year's team.

Seriously want to lead this board back to its original never Oscar stance. Actually it is not me but Oscar doing such a crap job that the team goes the final 10 minutes of a game against a meh like Miss St without a FG. Those in-game failures are compounded by programmatic fuckups such as keeping worthless slag heaps like Love and Shad around for 3 years.
If we can win conference titles with this slack-jawed dweeb, imagine the success Cats could have with a competent coach.

If we know one thing about Oscar, as the losses pile up (and they will. A team so poorly coached it can't beat Bradley on a neutral court isn't going to fare well in the B12) he won't take the blame. Who is he going to throw under the bus this year?
Whomever, dweeb worshipers will just shake their heads about poor Oscar having to put up with such misguided youngsters.

K-State Basketball might be fun again in 2022-23 or 23-24.

This year appears to be a train wreck, next year might be a little better with the recruits, but they'll still flail around, then 22-23 they'll be better.

If it's good enough to keep the super tucks happy then so be it.   They lose their minds whenever anyone questions the roller coaster ride and it gets old, so better to just let that Old Tucky dog sleep on the porch.

I haven't been a big Oscar fan but I'd give him a year to get his crap together.  The past 2 have been E8 and ending KU's run in the B12.  Next year he has a stud class coming in.  Sucks to waste Sneed and Carti's talent but they are high end role players.  I'm good being patient this year but would like to see some improvement from the Frosh and Carti find a way to run the team consistently.  I'm optimistic we can do it a year earlier than dax's timeline

The past 2 have been E8 and ending KU's run in the B12. 

not trying to directly contradict you, but it is hilarious how both those seasons have the maximum amount of "meh" sprinkled in. the E8 run was largely due to the first ever 16 beating a 1 (the kentucky win was great) and getting demolished by Loyola. last season was a dr pepper but it was a tie, we lost to UC Irvine, and the team we tied with made the national championship game. it's the curse of oscar.

Oh, you're absolutely right.  A low flying oscar team will find some magic and a high flying oscar team will disappoint.  That inconsistency has to be a direct reflection on his coaching.

This conference is bad, like actually bad and not the bad we hear from dumb football fans who don't watch basketball and say that when a top two team loses to a bottom two team.

The conference is second in kenpom but almost certainly will fall to third. The last time they were third was '12-'13. That year the non con losses were as follows, the order is conference order of finish.
KU 2
KSU 4
OSU 4
MOLD 5
OU 5
BAYLOR 5
TEXAS 7
WVU 7
TECH 5
TCU 5

Again, those are only non conference losses. The conference is in a similar state this year. I say all of that to say I think we can get to 7-11.

Seriously want to lead this board back to its original never Oscar stance. Actually it is not me but Oscar doing such a crap job that the team goes the final 10 minutes of a game against a meh like Miss St without a FG. Those in-game failures are compounded by programmatic fuckups such as keeping worthless slag heaps like Love and Shad around for 3 years.
If we can win conference titles with this slack-jawed dweeb, imagine the success Cats could have with a competent coach.
Yeah, all those titles we've had without oscar proves it....oh, wait.

Last place this year, and may well have a losing home record. I don't see the fifth best recruiting class in the conference changing much next year -- not unless one of the freshmen is ready to start coaching the team like The Flush did.
Oscar has reached his old balls era.

What is the status of the “The Streak?” I don’t know that any adversity would justify losing it.

looks like we are currently 6-2 at home, with 8 left to play.  If the streak is .500 or above, then 2-6 gets us there.  if it's above .500, then we need 3-5.  i'm as nervous as a iowa state fan in a craft beer hall.

Is that what time they landed? I thought the broadcast said that Baylor's plane didn't even get them in Manhattan until 1 then they had to go to KC and change pilots? They apparently went to the hotel but only for an hour.

Not really an adversity thing, but from the k-state sports extra:

Quote
"Those are basketball plays. Those aren't scripted. They just happen. I thought we were able to get some of those. Then, when we got a little stagnant, we still were able to run a couple plays," he said, as K-State finished with 18 assists, its most since posting 29 against Alabama State on December 11. "We finally made some basketball plays, and it helps, obviously, when DaJuan jumps up and makes some of those threes, Carti makes a three. All that stuff definitely helps."

Do I remember correctly oscar being against basketball plays or playing basketball in the past?  Those keywords don't work well in the gE search.
