Anyone miss Oscar cleaning the glass?
You might not have got the memo. An AA, POY, unparalleled offensive rebounder, hard working, dedicated was unworthy of KY and was blackballed by the Benny Elites.

Just between you and I, he is the missing link for this team. We lost Chuck Hayes. Again.
 
Actually, yeah. Playing hard af, but shooting looks worse than I expected.
This has become norm under Cal. It's unacceptable, if we're being honest. His teams just lack killer instinct, and don't know how to dismantle teams on multiple fronts. People need to stop following the number of stars after a player, and start paying attention to the kinds of progress players actually make here under Cal and staff. It's a young team, that's a valid excuse this year, but I hate expecting Cal teams to look like this every year at this time.

Would you rather be down like we saw with a lot of other teams tonight?
I'd rather be up 12 or 15. You know, like we should playing against a team full of brand new players that's still missing several of their players.
 
Cal is going to have to decide on wether he wants to play the underrated white boy from Ky who anticipates steals, can make 3s and can pass and jump v playing an apparently overrated kid from NJ who cannot shoot and seems lost defensively.

Mark my word I see it coming.
 
New Mexico State is a better opponent than some of the teams these other teams are beating on around the country.
 
Don’t worry, he will come alive vs Kansas. Bright lights and all.
He’s just a one dimensional player. If that one dimension is absent, the he’s absolutely useless. He is incredibly slow, doesn’t box out or rebound well, and doesn’t defend well in the post or when his man shoots from the perimeter.

If we don’t have another big for Kansas, there is very little hope for a win. And yes, he would absolutely have to have a 4/6 from three game for us to have a chance.

Sheppard is a very underrated defender. There is not a drop off between him and Wagner at Point on defense.
Right now he deserves to come out and start the second half. If you want to win championships, you have to play the guys that give you the best chance to win. He looks like one of those guys.

Thiero, Shepherd, Reeves are three guys that look like winning players this year.
