Nothing matters when you are this pathetic on defense and on the glass. Nothing. This team has a very low ceiling. They are what they are. McKay, Burton and Niang are God Awful defensive players. Just horrid.

No, we just suck. It's been one heck of a letdown of a season. Nobody predicted 8 losses with 5 games to go. This team just doesn't seem to care and we have players that don't even try in McKay. This season sucks.

If you're not a troll, you're easily the most negative fan I can think of. When adversity strikes, you are right there to ***** about it. Don't see much of you after a win, unless it's to ***** about a player who didn't play well.

We're #13 in the country, and you say we suck? I stand by my original statement.

Glad to see we ignored Niang towards the end of the game once again. That seems to work well.

Im starting to wonder if the players and coaching staff is incapable of actually learning from previous experiences.

I think I'm going to just not watch the KU and WV games. ISU may keep it close and get a chance late, but they'll do what they do, and that's harder to watch than simply getting beat badly.

KSU, OSU and TCU won't be gimmes either.

I was thinking that they might actually have a better record than last year since defense seemed to be a priority, but either Prohm wasn't honest on that, or ISU just doesn't buy in. Difficult to watch.

11 losses at a minimum here. The people projecting a 3-4 seed haven't watched this team much.

Somebody has to take the blame for this **** poor season.

Pretty much all of our conference losses have been due to being terrible in late game situations. That is absolutley on Prohm. I thought after OSU we might start seeing Georges get the ball more in late game situations but apparently a post player closing a game out isn't what Prohms wants.

I bet 95% of Baylor's offensive possessions ended involved a foul in that overtime period. Over 50% the last 5 minutes as well. Can't win with that.
When you provide no resistance down low and let their post players catch it that deep every time it's going to be a dunk or a foul. This isn't difficult or some mystery.

The season has not turned out the way most of us thought it would, true.

IMO, it's a sign of our improved status that "fans" are complaining about a season where we have been ranked the entire season, have beaten three top five teams, and are fairly assured of another birth in the NCAA's.

How quickly some forget that just a few short years ago we were thrilled to make it to the NCAA's after an extended drought.

This is on Prohm, we had 5 guys play really hard and really well and the coaching was just awful. Prohm is so bad it's comical at this point. Guy has no clue, no clue. His in game coaching is awful, some of the worst I have seen. Timeout selection horrible, game plan horrible. Lineup selection just awful most of the game, refuses to work the refs, horribly disorganized, horrible defensively.

I am done with this guy, he is weak, and overmatched night in and night out.

Good and we are done with you!!!
