It starts with Watford. Also, it’s insane to me how this team has such a short memory of how playing defense translates to winning games. If they go down early, there is no fight which is odd because they were known for their comebacks the past couple of years.

I don’t know, I don’t get too upset. This will be the third year in a row we would make the NCAA tournament. When was the last time that happened? I’m enjoying the ride no matter what, pandemic and all LOL. If this team gives two shits they play extremely well. Let’s hope March madness lights that fire in their arse and makes it fun to watch.

Lazy play and offensive players standing in all 4 corners watching one guy dribbling the ball against 3 defenders.. also getting the ball inbounds..it’s not really as hard as it looks to run a play to get the ball to a teammate but they look like ants running around not knowing where they are going..

Kyle Macy of Kentucky kept me pissed off, but I’m an old fricker.

There’s plenty to choose from but #1 is this new defense he’s tried to install this year. A 1-3-1 style trap with very little trapping, the bigger players trying to stop penetration and our guards protecting the boxes. Teams can get any look they want if they’re patient enough. There’s no ball pressure when he goes into his 3/4 court and full court defenses either which makes no sense. We were never a great man to man defense under Wade but we’ve always had stoppers who can slow elite wings and we’ve always had enough size and length to challenge at the rim. So while we may not have been elite in staying connected or detail oriented, to a man we could compete athletically and overwhelm lesser teams. The floor was much higher and even this season our best sustained stretches on D have been in man. If he continues down this path we’ll continue to regress.

The team leaders can't forget their personal goals in key games and play as a team.

What Upsets me the most there isn't any leadership on this team, when teams go on big runs ( Bama uga ark) they pack it in. There's no fight when shite hits the fan. There's not a team concept with this group .

I agree. I also think unrealistic expectations are at play here also.

Top of my list is Wade not holding team leaders accountable for poor effort and poor decisions. Watford, Smart, and Thomas do whatever they want with no accountability. It feels like watching a pickup game with no coach.
