If your best player isn't going to give a full effort, I'm not sure I'd play him either.

I didn't see that he wasn't giving full effort, seemed to me that he was. If that is the case though, OK, so be it.

On top of not showing up in the first half, I'm assuming CK said something at halftime and Frank decided to sit his butt. I'll be glad when he's gone.

Regardless, you all ran into a hornets nest tonight. Hopefully, you all can regroup.

Pants? Is this a bad google translator copy and paste?

Congrats on the win, Kansas fans. Sorry we won't "prepare you for the tournament" this year, it may end up hurting you.

Hey, maybe you'll get in the CBI so Pullen can actually play.

Hoping for NIT, more home games I think. Pullen will play but I think Frank should sit him anyways. No point in playing seniors in the NIT.

I've been trying to understand this dropoff. Did Clemente and Sutton really mean that much to KSU? I didn't think so, but something doesn't add up.

**Shogun** · 01-29-2011, 10:47 PM

Clemente did IMO

Clemente was a relatively inefficient guard that jacked up a ton of 3's, but it does seem that they miss his intensity.

**Shogun** · 01-29-2011, 10:51 PM

Sometimes that will **** up morale

They did mean quite a bit, but not enough to explain this kind of FAIL. Granted, no one had this game circled as a W to begin the season, even if we were ranked #3.

I think the lack of development in our bigs has hurt us, and this team just lacks any mental toughness.

He generated some easy baskets with his speed, he was a legitimate threat that had to be guarded behind the arc (only McGruder fits that bill outside of Pullen), and most importantly handled most of the ball handling which freed up Pullen.

How much is blamed on coach Frank though? Seems to me as a major coaching issue.

He seems to blame himself quite a bit.
