This is where I’m at. I don’t think we will ever be able to get enough stops against good teams to get any real separation. And god forbid we ever have an off night offensively (see first half Jackson St), we are cooked. We will probably beat a few good teams in some shootouts, but I fear we will lose a few we didn’t expect to.

We’d all be willing to overlook the occasional “bad win” if we also had wins over UConn and Northwestern, with our only losses being to two ranked teams by a combined 7 points.

Yeah I saw that, wonder why the knee brace?

I can say with near certainty he will miss games. Just how it goes for this program for whatever reason. If Thames can’t start, and Mccottrey can’t go, I guess Kobe is into the starting lineup? I get that he’s in there for defense, but when the other four guys can’t defend a lick, it kind of defeats the purpose of having one guy play great defense. Instead you’ve just got a guy averaging 1 ppg and shooting 22% in 18mpg in there stopping up the offense. Not trying to put everything on Kobe, the whole team has been meh. But just doesn’t seem like he fits the roster. Hope he proves me wrong.

Don’t think it’s gonna go up after that one either…

Probably don’t get the buy game money if they beat us

Not trying to toot my own horn or anything, but coming back and winning that was never in doubt. Jackson State would’ve had a tough time against the School for the Blind Fightin’ Helen Kellers. Besting the 340-something ranked NET team by 8 at home will only further lower our ranking. I’m trying not to overreact, but I don’t see how anyone can watch this team defend/rebound incompetently, miss FTs, and constantly turn the ball over, and proceed to think “this team is going to improve to the point of dancing in March.” I don’t know what needs to be done, but more excuses over “it’s only five games into the season”, injuries, inability to schedule quality teams, etc, are certainly not the answer. Other new coaches are doing way more with less. This team would lose to any of Ford’s last four teams at the same point in the season. Everyone here knows I was no Ford apologist, so I don’t say that lightly. Schertz needs to start earning his buyout/salary/NIL commitment, and fast.

A coach that won ncaa tournament games? (Only half kidding)

Schertz and Ford have one thing in common and it’s a deer in the headlights look when things are going wrong. Ford just responded with anger and Schertz responds with high fives and hugs.

I had Schertz and Mack as 1a and 1b. Anyone paying attention should’ve seen it was always McCollum.

Old guy levels of obvious

I don’t care if we come back and win this by 8 points or whatever. This is disgusting against one of the worst teams in basketball.

Yippee! Guess I’ll take ‘em over Avila and William Woods

Alright lol. Sorry I speculated in response to your question on a discussion board.

3 total bench points was concerning
