It might take longer than "a little layoff" to get Ray-itis out of them. But I do think they will gradually get better as the season goes on.
I do think our defense will definitely get better as the season goes on.Quote:

10 days off is a lot. We should see improvement.
I look for MN to finally get his step back. he should be full speed and I think we will see a marked improvement. Plus the Chicken is fixing to get His game on.
Anyone thinks Staley gets any minutes next game? I'm ready to see what he can do.
I don't expect him to play next game.Quote:

Our problem has nothing to do with Ray. Our problem is we have Sr's and Jr's jealous of Newman and dont want to lose their spot. We have a divided team. Chicken absolutely cannot handle being "the guy" anymore with the offense structured around him.
**** these guys and let's get to next season
And Howland is being hardheaded with the man D- knowing this team struggles in man and needs to play more zone to prevent dribble-drive
God . Why does IJ Ready keep taking big shots at the end of games
I can't believe I actually allowed myself to be lured into looking forward to the basketball season. Should have known better. Now I'm just biding my time till late February and baseball season (forget recruiting, don't pay any attention to that). Waiting for the next big disappointment.
Your boy Ray is 0-9 right now. If you think that Ray could have taken this team to the NIT, that is laughable.Quote:
