    "@Wichita State is a game we're not likely to win even if we were good. Going into the season, I wrote off @UNI, @WSU, and @CU as losses."

    ehhh I'm not convinced. If we have a healthy DD, DSE, and a right-minded TB we are a team that only has 2 or 3 losses and that one, I don't think, would have been one of them.

      I agree. Even healthy, we would not beat Wichita State at Wichita. To expect a win today is just piling on.

        WSU was my preseason favorite. I thought our team showed heart and played relatively well. I am encouraged by what I saw today.

          I am too proud of the effort. Our guys fought to the end. It would have been easy for them to have just mailed it in after the heartbreaking loss to SIU and with TB suspended but we didn't. Would have liked to have seen Milos play any minutes in the 2nd half but JL must think his defense isn't college ready. Considering we're giving up a lot points in the last few games I would say we have a few other guys who aren't playing college ready defense either. I liked the way we attacked the basket and we need to do more of that instead of settling for long jump shots. With games on the road at Missouri State, at UNI and then back home against MS we could be looking at 6 losses in a row if we don't beat IND St at home on Wednsday and if that happens hello Thursday in St. Louis.

            WSU chucks too many 3's to contend for title, though they do have some depth. either 2 or 3 behind UNI and maybe ISU red. BU will hope for 5th or 6th at BEST

              I'm with you! WSU to me is not a great team. What makes them good is that they play hard for the whole 40 minutes. They do not let up for even 1 minute. They shot the 3 well today but they are not a 3 point shooting team at all. Their bigs do what most bigs do, they rebound hard and defend their basket. WSU is a blue collar team and they bring their lunch pail to every game. That is something we can learn. It take discipline though. Too many times this team stops playing like one and seems to believe they can relax on D. The matador approach on D does not work well in b-ball.

                  The Shockers are about 5th in the Valley on 3pt attempts and not too far from #6 and #7. I don't think that is "chucking up too many".

                  They are also middle of the pack with the 3pt% in the Valley.

                  Now I'm not disagreeing about them finishing MAYBE #2 or #3 in the Valley. But I don't think it would be because of 3pt shooting solely. You say we may finish behind ISU red, but they have shot more 3pt shots than the Shox have and they are worse at shooting it. So going by your first sentence I don't think they would qualify to finish ahead of the Shox.

                    Anybody proud of TB today? He is on the team, right? 3rd game suspended already with more to come. SELFISH!!
                    Can we start winning soon?

                      Agreed....... and I'm certain his days as a Brave are numbered.

                            Your right friend, we should wait for the facts. I guess I just know when things like this happen to a player and team is not a good thing This is his second time We will see

                            I was happy with the teams effort today

                              There's not much to be proud of, sorry. We're 6-7, have lost 3 straight home games, and have players who apparently don't care enough to follow the rules. I'd be proud if we had won. Showing up and playing hard shouldn't have to be rewarded with praise, it should be expected.
                              Onward and Upward!
