Jeeze none of our freshman are even close to double digit points. I know they are being thrown to the wolves, but when is the last time we had 4 freshman come in and only one puts up double digit points in a single game?

He should be fired. Even teams in our conference with a lot of freshman, rebuilding, etc don't get beat down this badly, or as badly as other games, by what might amount to a bubble or NIT team.

Of course, Pollard will come back with excuses like how Young was out. He'll probably even give Prohn an extension.

He hasn’t called one TO tonite. At least give the impression of being a coach. Pick your reason: give the short handed team an extra blow, coachable moments for the freshman, remind them what the defensive sets are, ...

Safe to say these freshmen benefitted from some rankings inflation.

Thats a pretty big generalization. The rankings have to do with individual ability usually. Putting together a bunch of talented individuals usually doesn't mean the team will be good. Anybody who has ever coached a team or led a team in any professional manner where teamwork = success knows this.

This team might not be the highest talent level, but a well coached team with high conference talent wouldn't be blown out as badly as some games this year.
