Game 12: AT #19 University of Oklahoma, Wednesday, December 31st, 5 PM (EST), MASN2

[DeepValue]

Are we still playing zone? Hard to tell when OU scores before we set up. Wide open threes, drives to the basket, the works.

We are so bad. Oklahoma isn't really that good. We're just playing glorified pickup ball.

Hey, that's what we do best.

 

[gmujim92]

No intensity whatsoever. Is there even one guy who cares, or are they just going through the motions?

Truth. Truth. Truth. Just thinking the same thing. OU isn't that good. Teams like G Mas just make average teams look incredible.

 

[Washingtonian]

37-23 Oklahoma leading at the half.

 

[Patriotsince81]

So limited in so many ways.

 

[hoops10]

Why are they even playing? This is like ou playing a crappy high school team. What an embarrasement.

So for those who thought Hewitt was finally getting them going, I say u are nuts. Wait till A10 games, we are going to get slaughtered.

Oklahoma is pretty good....especially at home. With that said we aren't good so it looks really bad. WTF happened to Jenkins? Jackson should never come off the floor going forward.

 

[Patriotsince81]

No to caring or taking any pride in what they do. Yes, going through the motions. The team reflects the personality of the coach. Quiet, nice, cerebral, and ineffective. Just happy to be there.

I don't think anyone on here thinks Hewitt is "getting them doing".

Watching Davidson last night and watching us today just drives home the importance of coaching.

Man-for-man we have at least as much, and probably more talent than Davidson.

But McKillop actually knows how to run an organized motion offense that plays to his team's strength -- shooting the 3.

Davidson spent most of the game yesterday carving up one of the best defensive teams in the nation.

When a team defends us with any physicality and doesn't just let us drive to the basket, we have nothing else. It's literally just go 1-on-1 and throw up a prayer.

 

[Patriotsince81]

Time to head downstairs to watch the slaughter continue.

 

[gmutom]

Newcomers Jackson, Thompson and Porter have 19 of our 23 points. Holloway, Gray, Edwards and Marko combined to go scoreless in the first half.

 

[gmujim92]

Newcomers Jackson, Thompson and Porter have 19 of our 23 points.

If they're still around at this time next year, and Hewitt is still the coach, they'll be the ones struggling.

That's how it works with the Hewitt Suck Factor.

 

[hoops10]

What's with Jenkins? Talk about regressing. But then again ditto for Holloway, Marco, Gray, I agree with previous comments,its coaching or lack therof.

That's how it works with the Hewitt Suck Factor.

Agreed. He needs to find a way to keep these players engaged by getting them shots. There's no rhyme or reason to who is going to be our leading scorer from game to game.

 

[Coach L]

What happened to the lineup that gave up 10ish points in the first 10ish minutes? Can anyone explain the sub pattern?

No

Glass half-full: Win or lose today, our RPI probably will go up.
