I mean they cost him his job at Illinois. Maybe he just has the worst luck when it comes to getting tricked by these kids you know? It's not his fault he is so trusting.It's mind blowing that no one can ask him that question: why is it that the guys that won't buy in are "your guys". All we heard about for his first two years or whatever was how, at KSU, oscar would be able to recruit the players he wanted, rather than the ones that people wanted him to recruit (as was the case at Illinois, according to oscar).No sports reporter in the heartland has the balls to ask a question like that, nor do any probably remember that he used that excuse in the first place. Our local sports journalists are lazy and timid. Yes, this is the question that needs to be asked. He said himself part of his failure at Illinois was recruiting the wrong kids, failing to coach toughness, and coaching "not to lose". Does he feel this is happening with this team and if not what is different? This doesn't seem hard.

“Our chemistry was just off,’’ said point guard Jevon Thomas. “Off the court we needed to spend more time together, do more bonding..."
in the end, EMAW will always win.

Go learn how to pass or shoot.
I can't see this team under this coach establishing the toughness it takes to improve much. They are much better at home because the crowd can bring some of the intensity/energy but if they can't bring any fire themselves then they have a hard ceiling.
I enjoyed Nino trashing the FR/SOs for not buying in after his mutiny had a role in the current coach and roster.
Could be worse, we could have the current Illini coach.
If it were up to me, Wintz would be on a fan scholarship, full ride.
do you guys think we would hire Groce if he and oscar got fired the same year?
That responsibility falls on Weber. Unlike previous seasons, when K-State’s roster has been limited on size and depth, Weber has more talent than he knows what to do with right now. Should he start Nigel Johnson or Jevon Thomas at point guard? Should he split Foster between point guard and shooting guard? Should he bring Edwards off the bench? Should he go small with Westicles, Williams and Gipson? Or should he go big with Brandon Bolden and Hurt?Read more here: http://www.kansas.com/sports/college/big-12/kansas-state/article3618380.html#storylink=cpy

Man, we really do need to get a new emoticon of the sad guy mixed with the cry guy mixed with the lol guy. Could call it :bruceketball: or something.
hadn't really thought of that. too much talent, that's the problem.
