How many wake up calls does this group of players need? It's who they are. Get used to it for a few more months.

We are what we are. A borderline top 25 team that will be a 5th seed and probably lose in our first game of the NCAA tourney.

Talented, but weak mentally, soft, no heart, no desire, selfish, careless with the ball, won't play defense, can't make FT's. Forgot that we're not supposed to lose in Hilton. But other than that we're pretty good.

A borderline top 25 team that hasn't been outside of the top 20 in like 2 1/2 years? Makes sense.

not angry, apathetic. If the players don't care, why should I. Just kind of done with this particular team. I have several other things I can give my little free time too.

Okay then, I won't expect to see posting until next fall. Enjoy your time away.

Thought about starting a thread to say this because that is what everyone is doing right now but I'll just post it in here instead...

Have fun tonight, mods!

The vicious cycle of CBB. I'm hoping with my heart that people use this online outlet to keep their regular lives in balance.

First round exit this year. Not our year anymore. We have no depth and look dead coming down the stretch of games. No way we have enough gas to get through the tournament. It was a pretty good year I guess.

Is there a way for this to get bumped in case they make the tourney, and win a couple of games, which is probably talent-wise their ceiling to begin with?

Last year all indications were that they were playing well since they came out on top of the Big 12 tourney. It doesn't always work that way.

This is a year in which Duke is possibly a bubble team. Still about 6 weeks to find out what they can do.

McKay is playing god awful. If he's hurt don't play him. He's hurting us more than helping. How does a 6'9 guy who played 20+ minutes get 0 defensive rebounds, absolutely pathetic.
