The teams we are losing to in out of conference are actually legit bball programs since we play tough schedules now.


Harvard, MTSU, Hawaii... how could we ever be expected to compete with those juggernauts?

Believe it or not there has been a talent increase in the program as well with young guys like Horace Spencer, Bryce Brown and TJ Lang all young guys you can build system around.


There may be a talent increase but there certainly hasn't been a results increase.

So ya a lot has changed if you actually followed the team


I follow the team, we are getting it pushed in just like we always have. Barely even competing.

Clearly showing you know absolutely nothing about basketball and don't keep up


Hawaii - They are 13-2 with their only 2 losses to top 20 RPI teams (Oklahoma by 3)

MTSU- RPI #70 and it was an OT road loss

Harvard- Made 4 straight NCAA tournaments and 6 straight 20+ win seasons

That's normally what happens when 6/12 scholarship players have missed multiple games due to injury/eligibility issues

Team chemistry and effort have definitely broken down and that is a concern.

That being said, we only have 7 scholarship players available. You don't beat top 25 South Carolina or preseason SEC #2 Vanderbilt on the road with 7 players. Everyteam drops a dumb game like the Mizzou road game.
