    In every world that’s what…
    My two cents…I think the AAC is by far a stronger conference. On the other hand, I watched a lot of both tournaments (AAC and MoValley). I liked the kind of basketball I saw played in the Valley far better than what I saw in the AAC. I also don’t think we have the players to compete in the AAC…we aren’t strong, fast, or smart enough. The MVC is more disciplined in many aspects. And I don’t think we could have beaten Loyola this year…and would have had problems with them the last 4 years. Remember, we got “Draked” last year…and have looked bad ever since. (We looked bad the game before we played them as well). Our Coach, at this time, is not able to coach in this conference. Last year was a complete fluke.

      Our players absolutely are. Our coach is not able to keep them playing at a high level and that has been our downfall.

        They sure didn’t show it this year. Obviously, I think coach showed a lot of shortcomings this year. However, he isn’t the only one to blame. The players were far short of expectations this year as well.

        • The coaching staff needed to realize that:

          A) This team is really bad at shooting 3s
          and
          B) This team is pretty darn good at shooting FTs




          They should have adjust the offense to driving the basket and living at the FTs line.

          Granted, a lot of the players aren’t great at finishing around the basket, but the could have at least try to scheme a game plan to help make them more effective.

          That’s one of the major whiffs of this season, IMO.

          • And to run that offense you need to get MU out of the paint to
            open it up and create better spacing. We ran that spread offense
            so well down the stretch against ECU and KP in the corner not
            high. Won't work with MU cause opponents would not respect
            him as a three point threat. Need good shooting fours and fives
            and DD to really work on the 3's also.

            • DD’s biggest problem is still the biggest problem he had walking in day one; he can’t dribble.

              I love the kid and all he has done @ WSU. He’s been nothing but a first class representative of the university, but it seems impossible that you could play basketball everyday for four years and not develop a skill better than that.

              If he came back next season and could somehow massively improve on that over the offseason, that would help this team tremendously.

                I have loved watching him. So much so I do hope he comes back. But everything you said here is correct. Not to mention his career-worst three point numbers this year. Was a huge liability on offense. On a team that needed offense.

                  I think they tried to drive because almost every pass reception was followed by a dribble. Good teams pass pass pass for a good open shot or open drive lane to the hoop. We seemed to dribble into traffic and throw up crap contested double pumpers or contested 3's. Seldom did we look or work for nice open 2 pointers.

                    Light. Years. Better? What an idiot. That was some really high level ball we all witnessed down in Texas this weekend. For a second I though I was watching the B10 or the SEC. Did AG's transcripts ever show up?

                    All kidding aside though, we would expect nothing less than that kind of a response from you. After all, you expect intelligent sports fans to believe that CP running the point was instrumental to this years -ahem- success, but last year's 3rd team point guard had nothing to with theirs. What next? If only Mo could have played with a little more effort this year? Just like CP did. Oh, wait...

                    Triggered? No, you've got the wrong poster. Entertained would be more precise...
