Ray's "Motion Offense" has looked somewhat like streetball at times this year. Bloodman is by far the worst PG in the SEC, Sword is shooting under 30% from the field as a guard, and Wendell Lewis isn't getting any better.

Call me crazy, but I dont see all this fundamental team ball you guys are talking about with the players we have on the floor. We play harder defensively, but offense has been really painful to watch, especially in Hawaii.

Wendell has two double doubles in the past few games and he isn't getting better?

Ray's motion isn't working cause these kids are learning on the go. These kids are freshman that are used to being the guys on their basketball team. This team is so young it's not even funny and you are throwing them under the bus already. My god give them a few more games. One our best shooter and overall leader Jalen Steele will be back soon. Colin Borchert arguably the best shooter on the team is struggling right now, he will on only get better. Dre' Applewhite and the supposed to be starting PG Jacoby Davis are out with ACL tears. Bloodman may be the worst in your opinion but he hustles and runs the offense. Fred Thomas is a bright spot and can only improve with playing time same can be said for Sword.

Let me suggest something for you, BE PATIENT. Don't blame the players and the coaches for this. They aren't at fault, they are out there giving 100% and they deserve our support regardless if you think they suck.

Imagine if Bost had blown his knee out his freshman season and we had to spend the whole season with Twanny Beckham at PG. That is what Ray is having to do.

Well, no- he is shooting 33% Bundy. He's played 8 college games- not to mention he is a Stands recruit. The man you give so much credit to for getting "players"

We have 7 guys basically playing their 1st season of D-1 basketball. Ya think that might have a little something to fricking do with it? Would this group be any better with Phil Jackson coaching them?

He has a team full of freshman that have to stay on the floor the whole time. And the offense is still a shite load better than Rick's.

Lewis is getting better. And you knew we weren't gonna be good. Why do you act surprised. We're not gonna be good this year. Why can't you accept that. If we had stansbury this year, we would basically have the same team and we would be worse than this.

Crazy

Let me let you in on a little secret. We don't give one flying phuck about going to the NIT. We want a consistent program. The only way to do that is to set a good foundation and have the right players. Why can't you process this through your brain?

Lewis is 10x better than he was last year especially in scoring.

Last year if he had 4 points he was doing good. He also is in much better shape.

If this team had retained Bryant, Hood, and Deville smith I think we would have been pretty solid but there's nothing Ray could have done to keep them. They just didn't want to be here after last year's mess
