Speeches are great. Now let's see who gets on the floor after loose balls, gives up the body, goes over the top of screens, doesn't allow themselves to be pushed off of their cuts or back on their dribble. More importantly, let's see if those who don't are held accountable. I can live with an 18-12 team really giving it up every time on the floor and sometimes just not having the firepower to get the "W". I don't know that we have seen a full sellout performance from this team yet. We have outclassed and outshot some teams.
I hope the crowd gets on board and cheers for the Play Angry plays so the players get some positive reinforcement.Wichita State, home of the All-Americans.

We played really hard against Houston at home, and some other games too. Even Their coach said so. Against Houston last Saturday I would agree that they were the physical tough team and we soft one and maybe in a game or two that we won, maybe we weren't as tough as we need to be. Hyperbole isn't necessary with a 15-4 Top 20 team even if it makes one "feel" better.

Note: 40 minute effort doesn't necessarily mean that we play mistake free or look good in all facets of the game for 40 minutes, just that all 5 on the court play hard all 40 minutes.Its a good landing if you can walk away, its a great landing if the plane can be reused the next day.

I think we've played hard at times, but I have yet to see a 40 minute effort. This team has buckled down and played hard late in some games when they were down and absolutely had too so I know they are capable.

I hope we right the ship after the Houston debacle.

Lets face it, the talent in the American is significantly better than what we have been used to in the MVC. We can no longer wear down our conference opponents with our deeper bench and count on them tiring out in the second half. We have got to play a whole 40 minutes and not count on always making a big comeback in the second half.
