Hard to gauge offense this early. Hard to assess indivual player's motivation in a game that doesn't matter. Hard to say we put forth a solid gameplan.
Yes, losing to CBU hurts. It hurts much like Kentucky losing to Gardner Webb (spoiler alert: they bounced back). We lost a game that hurts. We have room for improvement. Let the coaching and hard work begin. The sky isn't falling. Channel your Memphis love in a good way. What can YOU do to help?
There's is never a situation where we should lose any game to CBU. It's unacceptable. There's not a single player on their team who would even make our roster.
we go where our guards take us
Right now, they are holding the map upside down.

One thing we can do to help is to stop trying to put lipstick on a pig.
