Boston's shot is broken at the moment it will return. Saar is key to keep on the floor. Mintz needs to run the show and give Askew two time.. yes I'm discouraged but I have faith.

I agree. However, these days I'm thinking we need a separate board for those of us with any optimism.Boston's shot is broken at the moment it will return. Saar is key to keep on the floor. Mintz needs to run the show and give Askew two time.. yes I'm discouraged but I have faith.
Yeah I some what agree with you. By March this will be a far better team than now. BUT, we're going to have so many early season losses that it's going to destroy our seed come tournament time. A few more December losses & we're looking at a 5 seed instead of a 2 seed.Boston's shot is broken at the moment it will return. Saar is key to keep on the floor.

When Cal starts giving him clock, the usual suspects will start trashing the kid for his bad defense. H8ers gonna H8, and the haters have taken over.Your boy Allen not getting the clock you expected either
Bright side l, if we are a 7 or 8....you find out real quick if you’re legit. Win your sweet 16 game and now you’ve stolen the 1 or 2s path. 😂Yeah I some what agree with you.

I still think this winds up Cal’s third best team after 2012 and 2015.Boston's shot is broken at the moment it will return. Saar is key to keep on the floor. Mintz needs to run the show and give Askew two time.. yes I'm discouraged but I have faith.
Clarke will take over at point, that will be the tweak, Mintz is def better at SG as well. Boston has got to start making some threes though! Brooks will def make the team better as well.Clarke should be the one running the show. He has handles and a good passing ability.
Move Mintz to the 2 where he will thrive. Park Askew on the lane and left him se how this has to go. He's a 3 year guy, hopefully he stays, we need some veterans.
Yeah, eventually Cal we'll right the ship, we get that, but it's always a struggle and a fight to get there and the losses to our rivals and mid major programs in Rupp are piling up. Even the pumpers in this board have to see that.
Also, keep in mind, this is a shortened season, 10 losses might mean you’re out of the tournament. We already have 2 losses after 3 games. It's not a good position to be in, because this team is really behind, especially knowing the fact they have been practicing for 5 months.
Yes I totally agree this is what I’ve been saying. This is the problem. By the time we are able to compete our record will be so bad we will be seeded very low.Yeah I some what agree with you.

You're only looking at it in the short term. People who are frustrated are looking at the bigger picture.Boston's shot is broken at the moment it will return. Saar is key to keep on the floor. Mintz needs to run the show and give Askew two time.. yes I'm discouraged but I have faith.
lol noIf we have a few more December losses, that will put us at 2-5 with only 3 potential quality wins left on the schedule.
That will put us in danger of even making the tournament at all.
So what is the big picture? Please explain.You're only looking at it in the short term. People who are frustrated are looking at the bigger picture.
It is what it is. 2014 racked up a horrible record, got a bad seed but still would have won it all if WCS didn't get injured.Yes I totally agree this is what I’ve been saying. This is the problem. By the time we are able to compete our record will be so bad we will be seeded very low.

lol no
Lol, TX and TN are ranked. UF, UL, Bama, Arkansas and LSU all are listed as also receiving votes, thus putting them just outside the top 25. We have several quality games left. We also have no bad losses at this point. KU is #7 and we went to the buzzer. Richmond is #19. Step back off the ledge and come back to reality for a bit.Um, we are currently 1-2 with 4 games remaining in December.
“A few more losses” would put us at 2-5.
From there, we have UTx2 as potential quality wins. And also Texas.
Other than those, there are no guarantees of any other game on the schedule being a quality victory, although we all know even the worst teams will play the game of their lives against us and potentially deal out some bad losses.
Add in covid and game cancellations that are coming, and I could EASILY see us with a record like 15-8 or so going into the SEC, but with 0 quality wins. Which would put us squarely on the bubble.
I have a serious question. How can a kids shot get broken in just a matter of months when he has been shooting the same way for years ?
Also increased distance on the 3 line.Increased weight training, maladjustment to increased speed of the game, and heightened anxiety level can all have an influence. Until all these factors are accommodated by the player mechanics can be off.
Issue is that Nov-Jan can kill your seeding making it much harder to win in March. Let’s face it, it takes luck and skill to win the tournament. Dropping seed lines makes your road that much tougher.Nov to Jan- Terrible basketball. 3 to 5 good minutes per game
Jan to feb- Sparks start to show. 10 to 15 good minutes per game
Feb to- good basketball.
Mar to Apr- hit tournament with a good chance to go far
same story every year when you have 100% turnover.
we will be fine, but a lot of hard to watch basketball for awhile.
I'm not sure Cal will make that move, that means he'll need to Tell Askew he's going to sit and Askew is in Cal's little circle of honor that he has for every team.Clarke will take over at point, that will be the tweak, Mintz is def better at SG as well. Boston has got to start making some threes though! Brooks will def make the team better as well.
Agreed and pretty much what we see every year. But when you crap the bed early and you run into a 3seed or worse and make your NCAA path much harder....you should not say a word and learn to deal with it or fix the roster turnover for early year games.Nov to Jan- Terrible basketball. 3 to 5 good minutes per game
Jan to feb- Sparks start to show. 10 to 15 good minutes per game
Feb to- good basketball.

And in a shortened season, that could mean an even earlier exit.Issue is that Nov-Jan can kill your seeding making it much harder to win in March. Let’s face it, it takes luck and skill to win the tournament. Dropping seed lines makes your road that much tougher.
We improved over 3 days from Game 2 to Game 3. Bad experience is still an opportunity to gain good experience. I'm interested to see if the extra day between Game 3 and Game 4 yields more improvement.
I agree. Young teams need experience more than anything else and this is the year to gain it. Who knows how many games they’ll actually get?And in a shortened season, that could mean an even earlier exit.
This team needs a full season to right the ship since they are all so young. I just don’t see there being enough runway to land this plane.
Yeah, we'll look good against Ole Miss and Vandy and we'll think we got something, but that's fools gold.
Normally I do, but I don't right now. I don't see a PG that can initiate the offense and breakdown the defense. Bad shooting, Bad passing. Bad team.Boston's shot is broken at the moment it will return. Saar is key to keep on the floor. Mintz needs to run the show and give Askew two time.. yes I'm discouraged but I have faith.

Move Mintz to the 2 where he will thrive.
