He is playing lazy so far this year. He doesn't look as energetic or excited as last year. Could be a sophomore slump or it could be that he rough ridin' hates this team since they suck.  :dunno:

Did Pullen have a sophomore slump or get lazy for a season? I remember Rodney doing it
, but I can't remember if Pullen did.

:rolleyes: ugh, yarddog why are you so gross?

Do people think that stud pre-NBA SGs can't/don't transition to PG in the NBA? I'm not going to look for examples, but that seems incorrect.

A tale as old as time, chum1.   Steph Curry, maybe some of these idiots have heard of him, and about a billion other guys.

In response to my comment. . I am starting to think maybe I am seeing laziness where it is actually lack of player development?  :dunno:

Yeah, in the NBA.  Boom roasted, dummy.  You see because he went pro after his junior year so his senior year was spent as a PG in the NBA.  #lollerskates

I just think back to Jamar Samuels, and Rodney's Senior year. . .I remember being jazzed we were good but confused as to why our players weren't getting better. I don't know what Foster's ceiling is, but other players around him have seemed to regress (Westicles, Nino) or have plateaued (Gipson) and it is easy to point to their development.

With that big fancy new center for basketball development by the Fred these kids should be improving by leaps and bounds. Perhaps it is that everyone around Foster is looking less capable which makes him seem so as well.

foster will be relied on to score a lot more in big 12 play, imo. id imagine he and gip will take a lot more shots.

I'd be curious what your opinion was, I'm just spitballing. I don't enjoy seeing the cats look bad. Not one bit. But I can't quite put my finger on why they have been struggling.

If we were to compare Foster and Pullen I think it is only fair to compare the players around them. Foster will achieve more individually, but if the players don't step it up (which they still might as the season is young) he won't win nearly as many games as Pullen did.

I come on this site to talk things out and see where my opinions fall on the possibility scale because I know the majority of folks here care as much about the cats as I do. Unfortunately sometimes that means enduring intolerant people who refuse to talk to me. #thestruggleisreal

I appreciate your support. I remember meeting lib in person one night in Aggieville and he told me I was doing just fine and just needed to roll with the punches better. I took his advice and here I am.  :dunno:

I want our team to be good. I am curious if anyone ITK could explain to me why our shooters are missing so badly. Is it mental? Or is there a science to their preparation?

If I was oscar I would just have the guys run for hours and then shoot for hours. The offense obviously isn't working, so just teach them to screen and roll and call it good. Can we run a quadruple screen and then dish it to Foster as our offense? That would work and make this a more interesting page. . .since in the real world it's becoming obvious that he will not break Pullen's scoring record.

I don't know what the stats are if Foster were to actually stay all 4 years if he'd break Pullen's record, but right now, I don't want him too. I just can't let my best and favorite player lose his title to Foster. I used to want that/was ok with it, but now, given how crappy the team is, and how much of a entitled player Foster has becomes, I want Pullen to keep the record.

during games, he chews his gum very slowly and with his mouth open.  with an attitude like that, this team is going nowhere.

if he's smiling on the bench, you can bet it's because he doesn't care about the success of this team and is only concerned about the dollars he will collect during his rookie year in the euroleagues.
