MemphisHoosier Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Not sure where to drop this, but I am seeing that Stansbury is out at WKU. I hope the next staff can unlock Lander - he played in all 31 games w/ 2 starts and an eFG of 38.0 (not great...) Quote

Banksyrules Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 For the love of god can we please have kids who like to win but importantly hate to lose (forgot who said exactly this. Borrowing). If you don't have mentally strong players it doesn't matter what skill set you have. We keep recruiting kids that when it gets tough they all break down. As cheesy as it sounds mental makeup should be priority #1 then whatever skillset #2. Ryno6284, thebigweave and Alford Bailey 3 Quote

When it gets tough “they all break down” but somehow those broken down weaklings managed to come back in 8 or 9 games this year. I’m not saying we should be sunshine pumpers but man we eat our own.

I think they're incredibly outlandish and filled with the emotion of a loss... which is fine, you can post however you want.... But the question remains, who on our team are you referring to? "We keep recruiting kids that when it gets tough they all break down" .... were your words, are you referring to JHS and MR? DChoosier, hoosierbgh and RaceToTheTop 3 Quote

He did miss the 3-point shot that would have sent the game into overtime, so maybe that qualifies as a breakdown. Quote

There will probably be a large influx of players entering tomorrow and Tuesday from teams with no postseason and then a steady stream for the next couple of weeks as teams have their seasons end.

Just some who seem to be consistently afraid of playing or simply having lapses in concentration while defending. These are college kids so I'm trying to not personally attack them but at the same time it's clear other programs have more quality depth of players who just bunker down and stay within themselves. I'm typically talking about veterans and not freshmen (growth period needs to be taken to account). Names of reference of the players who's style of play I wish we had (A.J. Moye, Dan Fife, Oladipo, Michael Lewis). Gabe Cupps from the games I've seen seems to be one of those guys. MikeRoberts and bigrod 2 Quote

Oh I agree, but there are degrees. Our teams for the past 30 years (minus maybe five years) have missed the mark and I think being unable to pick good players to give us the consistent depth we need to win games. If you disagree I'll respect that. Quote
