This team has shown they are not capable of putting two performances together. The absolute ceiling is R32. The only damage we’re doing in March is to the brackets of people dumb enough to look at our non-conference wins and pick us to make a deep run.

this is what I meant on wednesday when i said i’d checked out for this team.


it is great they’re in the field but i guess i’m just too damn american and can only love a winner.

We’re just not good enough to overcome a disappearing act from one of our top 3 guards

Agreed

Dear gosh this group is a frickin dumpster fire

Nate Oats on Jusaun Holt, who was not on the UA bench in Baton Rouge: "Me and him are gonna meet this weekend and figure out what his status on the team (is) moving forward. Internal issue, just a team issue."

maybe its his minutes going to 0 after several games where he was providing good depth. We need his length as a defender.

To say not everyone knew about the shot clock right there in front of your bench is the most inexcusable thing I think I’ve ever seen. Oats and staff need to fix a lot of shite internally in addition to all the external parts of reshaping the roster.

Oh man, that’s not good. Between that, Frenchie’s no show this year, and Gary’s disappearance (coupled with Primo and Burnett), we are very, very thin. I take back the winning 2 in a row, not sure we have the legs for that over a 3 day span.

And that explains a little more why Q was in for the last defensive possession in regulation. Although I still think I would go with Shack, Ellis, Miles, Gary, and Chuck/Gurley (or even Rojas if you think you need the switching). Q isn’t in the top 7 of defenders or rebounders. Glad Miles was up for the task on that possession.

Oh well. Just get me to the tournament.

I usually would feel the same if I didn't know we would be out the first gane

There's no reason to cry over spilled milk. What's done is done just got to get it fixed.

No excuse for a shot clock violation in crunch time. Sickening. Davison is a net liability for this team. Ball shouldn’t have been in his hands.

This team has zero chemistry, no leadership.

But with the musical chairs lineups Oats uses, I understand why.

Why doesn't Bediako play more in 2nd half, why suddenly is Miles getting tons of pt and Holt none. James Rojas..great kid, plays hard.. He can't dunk and he's our big guy on the floor almost the entire 2nd half.

We turned the ball over 21 times today and took the same number of shots as LSU.

If you're any good, you beat LSU by 20 today..yet we manage to lose. We shot 40 3's... and turned down open layups to do it.

Oats needs to tweak his offense, hire a defensive coach and keep recruiting.

I'm tired of hearing "lack of effort". Sometimes lack of effort is the result of being unsure what to do. That's on Oats..period.

Glad we're in the tournament..
