Only problem is they will be Dancing and they actually hired a decent HC!!! We need to stop bringing Mizzou into every thread, it’s getting old.

Maybe, the one constant over those years is the issue From my perspective, this was not a problem on previous Ford teams. Go tell guys like Goodwin, French, Bess, Linssen or the limited current players like Parker, Thatch and Hargrove that they have no passion. Let me know how that works out for you. I am disappointed with several of the current players in terms of fire/passion but I don’t see it as an endemic especially given Travis’ personality. slu72 and majerus mojo like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not blaming those guys for not having passion. He's blaming CTF. It's not a matter of just wanting it more, or passion. It is a matter of lack of coherent offense/defense, player development, game plans, game adjustments and team chemistry. Take your pick it's erratic, inconsistent from one game to the next.

billiken_roy Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 well i was furious with the lack of urgency with 10 minutes to go. when you go down 20 if you arent going to get after it, then admit you gave up and put in the kids. way too often we saw walking the ball down the floor when we needed to go. i will never understand ford's mindset with that.

Add Parker and TJ into that mix, B’roy. Also I think Medley might be a pleasant surprise. And then we’ve got the portal. I’m definitely disappointed about how this year played out, but think I may enjoy next year more as we watch them develop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRN Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 One positive, other than Larry, was Sincere getting pissed off and going hard to the rim. He could be an all around scorer for us. There was always a short leash with him by Ford this year, he’d pull him immediately after a defense letdown while keeping others like Perkins in. Hopefully he sticks around, the back with he and Hughes actually played stronger than the starters. thatskablamo likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I didn’t see a lot of was this team, collectively, getting “pissed off.” Travis got PO’d in spades, but unless this team gets pissed off in private, I never saw that attitude on the court until it was too late. A lot of Ho hum guys ain’t going to get the job done, Travis. This Ford program in need of a whole engine overhaul, not just a spark plug. Maybe it’s time for a recall.

BACKHANDtheRICAN Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 I accept all apologies for those who had their panties in a bunch all season when I repeatedly said we had a 0% chance of an at large bid, wouldn't win the A10 tourney, and asked everyone to come back to reality. no hard feelings.

This was by far the most disappointing Bills season of my lifetime. Ford will be back next year. He will most likely bring in a few nice pieces from the portal. They will make a push towards 20 wins and hopefully be close to an NIT birth. But it won’t be as hard to watch as this years version.
