See this is why the cyclones have done so poor in the past. You guys are satisfied with this loss just because it is 'a top ten team". It is time for a change in the cyclone fan-base.Im not saying we have to win every-game. When we lead most the game and should win, you guys are satisfied because its always been "the cyclone way".

Nope.


But we did get beat. It happens and there's a game on Saturday to win.

This Missouri team has 6 seniors, on senior night....just led KU by 19 in Phog Allen, we traded counter-punches with them all night....Fred's game plan in the first 36 minutes worked to a T. In this kind of game, you want to keep it a game until late, and make the plays to win. They made the plays, we didn't. End of story.

Is it just me, or do all the people that comment about coaching have no idea what they're talking about?

Think that was terrible late game coaching down the stretch. Last three minutes of the game we did not execute one set play. Think Fred would have called a time out. We played hard, but those types of losses really make the fans mad. Scott the senior played like a freshman in the second half, and we went away from Royce and its not like there defense was that great. This is why Haith is the coach of the year in the Big 12, not Fred.

There are limits on the number of timeouts each team gets, and we were approaching that limit. And execution (or lack thereof) in this situation is on the players.

 

[CyBer]

no. we are good. missouri is really really good.

LOL no Missouri is not "really really good" we are just as good.

 

[RollsRoyce]

Scotty needs to stop dribbling into no man's land. Obviously they weren't giving him any calls.

Royce should have been handling the ball more at the top of the key those last 10 minutes.

Thank You. This is when i really miss Diante.

WTF are you talking about, you are gonna bring this crap after we play a tough hard fought game at Mizzou against a desparate 8th ranked team, seriously some people.

 

[ISUcy08]

Nope. Fred wasn't the one out there throwing the ball to the other team.

 

[Cyballz]

Any coach would look bad when their best shooter, who's averaging 25 points/game the past 2 weeks, suddenly can't hit the broad side of a barn.

 

[Drive4cy]

Scotty shouldn't have the authority to dribble penetrate as much as he did in the last 10 minutes. That's my one and only complaint. That's not his game at all and more negative comes from it than positive. #shrug

If I am satisfied or not (i'm not) has no bearing on how the team on the floor plays. Not sure you can draw that connection.

BAN OP. what a ******* idiot.

You just say "Nope'. Prove me wrong. Teach me something ISUAgronomist. Everyone praises you on this site and i just don't see it. You are nothing special you are a hack.

I said nope the the bold portion. I am not satisfied with the loss. How hard is that to grasp.

Is this guy one of the trolls we're supposed to report tonight?

Disagree. No offense, but we could have done more. The last three minutes were terrible. Fred is a good coach, but this thread is not that off base.

Please explain how you managed to conclude there are only two options:
a.) satisfied with a moral victory
or
b.) Fred's coaching in the final X number of minutes was at fault

Thats another thing about our fan-base. Anytime someone has some constructive criticism on this board everyone immediately says TROLL.

The lack of rational thought demonstrated by you is the trolling, not that you are criticizing.

If it was constructive, we acknowledge it. Your only point was "Fred failed." Explain how, otherwise it looks like trolling.
