God damnit I am SO sick of never doing anything in the post season. When OU and their 2 massive bigs took us out in the final at Anderson Arena in 1983, I was in the stands. Would have been on the sideline as a junior falcon but I broke my arm and had to hand the position over. That was the last time we actually made any real noise at all, and the last time we had any kind of real shot at making the NCAA (since they stopped taking our regular season winner if it was not the tourney winner the same time we started winning the season and not the tourney).
I still hate John Deveraux and Danny Nee.

Wiggins doesn't look like he'll play again tonight. Turner should take every shot we take.

Watching the way this team has responded to getting every team's best effort rather than catching them sleeping on the team picked last makes this pretty obvious.

Good coaches don't let their teams consistently get beaten on effort and intelligence. It's like clockwork we show up with low intensity on defense and we then compound it by taking stupid shots. It's bad dumb basketball

Lol. The post season is next week and the faithful have already written us off.

We are having an off night at Akron, a notoriously tough place to play. We are going to get a bye into cleveland. We will play a team coming off a tough Monday win. A lot can still happen.

At least let it freaking play out before the melancholy drama, man.

Frye needs benched. Had two easy charges. He’s a problem.
Lol. An off night. That’s six in a row.

I think we're going to get hot in Cleveland and make the title game. Coach has kinda said as much - he said after the Miami game that we have been in Cleveland mentally for a few weeks.

This just really sucks right now. It's a game we should win against a team we are better than. To see us come out so flat this often is discouraging.

You have to put forth actual effort to get hit. Watch Frye and help d this entire second half. They are t catching fire. He’s a bad teammate tonight.

I remember when we got waxed at Miami, had a couple extra days to rest, then beat Buffalo. We'll get it together and get to Friday at the Q. From there, it's anyone's guess.

He is tonight. He's definitely part of the problems on offense when things aren't going well. Kid can play but is way too willing to start chucking stupid threes when things aren't going well.

This has nothing to do with winning and losing. It’s all about effort and energy.

We’ve tried hard in two games since Miami. Buffalo was our super bowl.

The team has clinched a bye. They lost the first game, a road game against a quality opponent, after clinching a bye. Relax.
