Shortened version of the above
Hyping Wiley as a great player/difference maker for this season is unreasonable and not reflective of reality (other than we are missing any halfway strong post presence sans Wiley)
Hyping Wiley's future contributions and development is very reasonable and deserves given how he has held up in his situation

Thank you. I never said he was bad or detrimental to the team, he just isn't the player most of us make him out to be.

I'm kind of pissed we didn't run a play for Waddell right there
Posted on 3/4/17 at 4:44 pm to GenesChin
Waddell is hurt which is why we had him inbound then immediately call timeout

Didn't realize he was hurt. Makes more sense.
I was hoping we triple screened him for buzzer beater fadeaway J

Should have let him throw that pass to Keim. Not sure what the point was in leaving the others in there.

You said he was a letdown. I don't think that's the case. He's not a huge difference maker right now, sure.

We won by double digits, blowing another double digit 2H lead to win by single or lose would cause an uproar

That was my thought. Pearl wanted as big a point differential at possible for a possible NIT.

If the bar is set at announcer hype, Wiley is our best player/huge difference maker, he has been a "let down"
That's not fair to Wiley, but it isn't incorrect by that standard. They act like he can be Shaq dominant and he just isn't there (I mean few NBA guys are at that level)

I guess my personal expectations for him were too high. we were 7-2 before him with a win over a solid Texas Tech team, with our only supposed weakness being size. I thought for sure the 6'11 265 pound 5 star center would be a beast for us. I fully expect Wiley to develop and be a very good player, I guess I was just hoping it would have been this year.

Guy was sitting in senior biology a few months ago. He's not gonna be a superstar that early. An offseason in strength and conditioning and college coaching will do him a lot of good.

Just looked at a tourney bracket.
I kind of like our potential setup. Could get a couple wins.

I agree with that

OP. Are we really 29-11?
Posted on 3/4/17 at 5:39 pm to LanierSpots
Pretty sure we are going to the ship 
Posted on 3/4/17 at 5:40 pm to LanierSpots
Soon
Posted on 3/4/17 at 5:40 pm to LanierSpots
We are 18-13 and winning the NCAAT to finish 27-13

So weird little stat about opponent FT% vs AU

85+% - 5 games
12/18 games, opponents shot better than season FT% avg
<60% - 5 Games
60-69% - 6 games
70+% - 7 games
