I didn't mean to imply there was a conspiracy. Just followed the money from his personal viewpoint.

Old enough I should have seen what he was doing long before now. That's for sure. There were some articles at the time that he wanted to go to NC but they wanted him to wait a year/didn't have a slot or some such.

Hindsight on Jaren. He wanted to go to NC last season but couldn't. So he compared $, coaching plus experience of us vs high school and chose to use us for a year & Cash in knowing all along he was probably going to NC. Explains his on and off effort.

All athletes don't mature at the same rate nor age. "Late bloomers" that used to stay at smaller schools (and get hot and cause upsets in the tournament) now can follow the money.

No. Sorry, wrong game.

Yep! It boggles my mind how he gets to call games past Jr College.

Their starters average age is 19.4 yrs. Ours is 22.0 yrs. Combine that with our SOS and we should have a serious maturity advantage: stamina, physicality, savvy, etc. We should be able to play smarter, more physical and get into their heads.
re: That loss versus Oklahoma was the dumbest I’ve ever seen. Old news but I don’t care.

Why don't you just tell us how you really feel about it.

I read somewhere that he had a severely bruised shin.

I know it is frustrating when we don't get close to our potential, but Oats will get better. He's still early on the learning curve for big time BB.

Nothing is 100% good or bad. The intense practices and extreme conditioning pay really good dividends, but one down side is that almost reckless speed and fatigue will always result in more injuries. I expect some who are in denial to jump all over this. Before you do so Google the relationship between fatigue and injuries.

Just looked at the box score. MSU 33.8 % shooting. Mayrlland 31.3%. Those are overall, not 3s. How do you sit through something like that?

Late in the half the announcers explained why. Coach asked some of the players what would help the team play better and they told him REST. And he listened. Hopefully it has FINALLY!!!!!! Gotten through to him. If so, this is going to be the norm for this team.

I get wanting to help Cliff but question where his head was even being aware of the double double much less risking the outcome of a game when it was still in doubt. Does he really keep up with individual stats instead of having his head in the game?

"Also the fanbases treatment of Sears is mind blowing. He is still the best player on the team and in program history."
I think most everyone recognizes his huge contribution but it is more frustration with how much more effective he has proven he can be when he doesn't over dribble into no-win situations.

I think Clliff is better now but don't think that would be the case if they'd been splitting minutes all season.

That seems to be a recurring issue with us.
