Going into half knowing that they would primarily focus on shutting Hausen down and not coming out of half with an answer to that is wild.

Also, I am worried that we just simply can’t trust Dug this year. Being without an active consistent PG is not good.

This game was lost on the defensive boards. Maybe Dug is inconsistent but Max and CJ are -- and consistently give us nothing.

CJ Jones had a pretty amazing foul out

This is not recoverable.

At least we're a baseball school now.

We seem to be a collection of bit players, shouldabeens, and role players without any primary players.

CJ's day, 0-7 fg, 0-2 from 3, 0-1 FT, 1 rb, 1 assist, 5 foul. By all means, keep starting him Tang.

Hopefully that will be our worst half of basketball this season.

The top half of the B12 will do similar damage to us

I think we can probably cool it with the “still early, meaningless games, blah blah” and just accept that this team is incredibly un-good (at basketball)

The nice thing about sucking when your team is full of mercenaries that you don’t know much about is that it’s very easy to just stop caring. The bad thing is that when your team is full of mercenaries it’s very easy for them to stop caring and pack it in.

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Naw kenpom, the NET, and all of us are just wrong.

For sure. Aggressive bigs and quick guards are going to take us for a ride every time.

Everyone who is decent is going to kill us. We’re in for a Wooly-type conference record.

No way Gene gave him 6 years fully guaranteed coming off an NIT season?

i expect a season very similar to oscar's last in 21-22 that was 14-17 (6-12).  Honestly, i don't know what I would do if i am Tang, the old school way would be to bench Hawkins, Jones, etc and go young but not sure build for next year works in the age of NIL

If we just kept Cam and Dai Dai this would be a completely different looking team.
