No, they really don’t. Very few posts here (if any) of people “freaking out”. Frustration has rightfully been expressed.

Kinda funny how soft some of our fans are after every loss. There’s a group here that cannot WAIT to scold others for slightest spec of criticism (and exaggerate the living sh*t out of it). There actually is not anything more predictable on CF.

Yes.

Yes it is.

especially to go double a big 10 ft from the basket who isn't a threat to do anything offensively
The double is to speed up the offense and creat turnovers. We got some, but OU was better as the game went along at moving the ball the extra time to get the open three and seemed to hit 100% of the open ones to their credit, with at least 3 different guys

I was wondering if I had imagined it, but seemed like an unusual amount.

As @alarson noted in response, at least a few probably were questionable.

Even so, in some cases our guys failed to "grasp and control."
Okay, I'm glad to see some other people thought the same thing. Obviously it's tough to tell without any replays with better angles, but there were at least 2-3 out of bounds calls that I was a bit skeptical on. That being said, none of our guys ever reacted as if the calls were wrong, but that's also probably what Otz wants from them regardless of whether the call is correct.

That's the risk. The reward is creating a ton of turnovers and getting easy offense from them. This year's team doesn't appear to be as good as previous at preventing the pass or getting deflections. It's definitely an issue.
We have Gilbert and Milan instead of Gabe and Holmes. Way different types of players. Almost wish we'd play a zone with Milan's length and quit running the legs off our players on the defensive end. Almost looked like TJ was putting personal out there to force that doubling into working. What was that nonsense pulling Tamin and Gilbert at the same time? Haven't seen much of that instead of garbage time so we do it conference opener at OU? I figure TJ will get it sorted out, but I didn't see it in Norman. Pretty obvious OU was prepared for it, and we kept pressing on with it.

They both had 2 fouls in the first half.
