And that's all fine! We knew that when we signed him. But it is weird how attached the coaches are to him. They apparently had to convince him to come back with that 'Big Rob Energy' ********. They went to real effort to get him back.

He's definitely getting too many minutes. Go smaller with ward and king. Rob needs to be pretty much removed from the rotation at this point. It's like clockwork every time he touches the ball it's a turnover, whether it be getting his pocket picked, a pass bouncing off his hands, or a missed layup.

That's why I think he plays really well every practice then maybe gets nervous infront of big crowds and *poof*

Kind of the game I feared it would be. Shorthanded, not a lot to play for, against a home team that needed a resume win, and one that is similar to Iowa in that they are ultra aggressive. I figured if they came out hot, we were going to have some issues.

Looks like the teams that needed a win are 4-0 vs the teams with less to play for. Good riddance SEC challenge.

We have to learn how to pull out of the high corner traps when the other team is talented enough to pull off incredible passes and are shooting out of their ******* assess.

That is what killed us at both Iowa and Missouri. After you give them some open looks and they make them, they gain confidence and you have to shut that down quickly or it will get out of control.

Feel like the offseason plan for our bigs is to thank Jones for his time here, get Ward in the gym every day to develop him a bit, and go hard and all out after a portal big to start next year

Looking at the box score this game down to two things, we lost the TO battle 19/11 and Mazzu was shooting the last out from three, 14/30, throw in 12/14 from the line to our 3/8 and we are not going to win many games when the other team shoots that well.

Another point, I love the hustle that Jones provides, but his offense kills us when he is on the floor, really need Kutz back the sooner the better.
