Ok ... you're a bad fan



butttttttttttttt ...... I totally agree with you

LOL, I just don't understand the logic behind sticking with LQ and ALo over Baugh who was having one of his best games of the season. I am curious to see LQ's minutes. I swear I don't think he sat the entire game.

Our guards aren’t a threat. We have no slasher. I think Boogie has potential but Harris and Alo are liabilities. Baugh shows some promise too. But we need a Jeremiah Martin type player.

Losing or squeaking by wouldn’t be as frustrating if there’s tangible progress throughout the season. IMO we have regressed. I love the game of basketball and we play an ugly version of the beautiful game.

Look at he box score and it doesn't tell you the whole story when comparing LQ and Baugh but LQ did not pass the eye test tonight, AT ALL.

Baugh was killing it tonight so Penny sat him for a lot of the second half.

It's just bewildering. The only consistency we've had has been Precious. EVERY THING else has regressed including the coaching. In a fight or flight situation there's almost invariably a 3-4 second period where you freeze, tonight it was like penny was frozen for extended periods both times our double digit leads just evaporated.

College basketball (in general) is ugly, but we haven’t played an entertaining style in years.

At least we play hard on the defensive end. That’s better than I expected out of a bunch of freshmen.

Saturday is gonna get ugggggg-ly

Apparently Alo is going to be on the floor at the end regardless of how bad he plays, or how well others have played.

8 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists isn't killing it. Lomax had 8,4 and 4.

I watched KY LSU yesterday. (79-76) I was surprised it was so freaking ugly.

You would expect us to have something beautiful every now and again.

Like I said, the box score doesn't tell the whole story. And I'm comparing him to LQ, not ALo. Look at the difference in minutes too...

Baugh also had 3 steals and 7 rebounds.

Double his time and who says he doesn't double those stats.

Baugh makes one bad play and sits, LQ made bad play after bad play and played practically the whole game, if he didn't I'll be shocked. Can't see the minutes yet in ESPN box score.

Baugh brings better energy and size. I can't find a way he gets fewer minutes.

Our expectations have dropped. We have another month left. It would be nice to get some consistent offensive sets that we can run again and again. We seem to run nice plays out of time outs. Just gotta develop some semblance of an offensive system before the conf tourney.

Other than rebounding the stats say Lomax had the better game. The key was 4 assist and zero turnovers at the point.

Neither of them hit their free throws.
