Your team has more Mickey-d allstars in your league than any team except one, you play the worst "d" in your league & you turn the ball over more than 15 times a game, your gonna miss the "Big Dance" March Madness, your North Carolina....

You reached 3 straight Final Fours in 06', 07', & 08' & your gonna miss the "Big Dance, your UCLA....

Your roster is infested with H.S. All-Americans & a couple of future NBA lottery picks but your record is 17-15 & your gonna miss the "Madness", your UCONN....

OU is no different than anywhere else.... It's just a bad season....

It's gonna be one the greatest NIT's ever though, TU & ORU will have a chance to make some noise....





There are specifics for failure but this puts things in perspective.

(the bird seed is a metaphor for how it seems like we are always on the verge of doing bad, but nothing bad, cept for Whitney Hand who continues to be a positive influence and a big part of the team, ever happens)

Beep beep! :D

Nine in a row is more (or much much less) than a "bad season." Honestly, they couldn't pull ONE of those games out? That seriously means "no talent," or "no try," or "no coach." And lack of talent doesn't seem to be the issue.

I agree, but there is a lack of talent. Ryan Wright is the only athlete among our post men, but his basketball IQ is less than that of your average 6th grade player.

Effort by Gallon was an issue as well.

Off court behaviors were issues for Pledge and Fitz.

Crocker being the same player he was 4 years ago is an issue.

Lack of team defense and rebounding were issues.

We've been over all this stuff, the post simply compared other teams who followed good/great years with pitiful ones after losing top tier players and solid role players.

With Tony graduating, don't we have at least one more recruit coming in?

Let's hope it's a good one.

King, your fixin' to pile up the negs now. Big time rule: No whinning about negs.
I am fixing to neg you for not being smart enough to find one of the one billion other "we suck " threads and put your post on one of them.
