Gonzaga hit the jackpot with an all time great coach, and they recruit like Kentucky

I think you miss the point. Running a similar style as duke and Gonzaga is not saying we should be as good as them. I like this team but our style of play is just gross and hard to watch.

Running their style without future nba guys all over the court isn't as entertaining. Duke and Gonzaga can win playing any style bc they habe elite players

Again you can have a better pace of play without their talent. I think you know this.

Definitely, an 'off' game for Guards .. should NEVER gone to OT! Guard play picked up in OT!

I think the style is fine. Now I certainly think howland could coach us better in offensive sets. I wish we'd give howland more money for coaches, and I wish howland would be receptive to some offensive help.

We can agree to disagree on the style. But I agree Howland could do better in our offensive sets. We dont move without the ball very well and ball movement is bad.

74 points a game
And shooting almost 50% from the field
It’s ****ing basketball and it was game ****ing 5.. there are going to be some nights that you can’t score., it’s not like we lost to Boise State
And who do you all want to coach us?? Who is going to get the talent here that Ben does ? I guess you ****s still want Kermit ..
Again I don’t understand what some of you think this basketball program was in the past because it wasn’t and never was And never has been

Im fine with howland. Just not in love with our half court offensive strategy. Wish we would run more with our depth.

Fine with Howland, just wish he'd wake up and utilize the talent he has in the best way possible.
Or to put it in terms you understand....
I'm fine with that mother ****er Howland, if he'd just wake the **** up and put those ****ers in the best position to ****ing succeed...which isn't ****ing playing a half court game, let those mother ****ers run and utilize their talent and skills. ****

Lol @ CD
I'm certainly a howland guy, but I understand the frustration with him at times. I do think he's put together a good team, and by conference play, this team is gonna be really good

Let’s wait and see how things go when we play Sec teams.

Fair enough, but it isn?t that hard to teach a little more push on offense.

I didn?t see it but Richmond is a solid team and a good win. If we can split between Minnesota and Colorado State and win all the others not counting TTU that?s a solid performance

Dude, Howland?s half court offense sucks, it is boring, and up until this point hasn?t won us shit. It has sucked since the day he hit campus. No one cuts to the basket. We run motion down to 8 seconds on the clock. I saw better ball movement and offensive movement without the ball in any 3 minute period of Gonzaga/Duke game than I have in 5 games total 200 minutes of gameplay against terrible defenses. And I am a Howland guy. Love the dude. Just calling a spade a spade here. He needs help, cause the real teams, the teams we want to play and beat, are playing literally a different game than we are, and when the time comes, our shit is going to get pushed in.
We as fans need to do our job. Go to games. And God forbid, stand the 17 up and cheer. This is a message board, and discussing the same faults we have seen from Howland years prior and looks to be continuing again this year, is exactly what needs to be discussed. Cause I am tired of seeing the same failure, game after game, roster after roster, year after year.
Simply put, our offense should look way more like Bamas, or Tenn?s this year.

Fact: Ari loves howland more than Bucky loves will.

At one time we were a fun team to watch play. And I didn't miss a home game when I lived there. It's the reason the hump was packed at times under Stans. You need to quit taking up for your daddy every chance you get and let people debate what's going on here. It's useless to recruit if you can't coach.

So you can debate how bad CBH is and I can’t give facts to argue??
Maybe you are just made still that your daddy is at western Kentucky and not making the ncaa tourney as usual
