The mental side of the game for KJ is disappointing

I've seen..a lot worse.
But I'll be happy when we have an offensive where the PG isn't good for six turnovers a game.
We are down 10, but it feels like 20

He’ll have 10 turnovers a game in the Association
Pathetic defensive scheme. You see if all game long: the players look bad, but if you know what you're looking for, and watch for a while, it's very clear the bigger issue is a coaching failure.

He’d just do that thing where he looks at them and grins and makes a sarcastic comment like “just can’t keep getting burnt on it”. Like it’s so obvious yet he can’t fix it…I beg that one reporter on the postgame ask: "Once they burnt you the first 20 times on drop coverage, why did you continue to play it?" - I'd love to hear Brad'sanswer.
HUGE. We still have a chance. D UP

Does WR have one final heater in him?

You sound like Tim Beckman.
Gotta make your FTs
It’s less about Hamer being 100% responsible and more about you can’t fire Underwood, but you can Hamer, who has been largely responsible for the defensive scheme.
Brad needs a new defensive minded strategist coach because he is getting laps run around him on the defensive side. There is no adjustments whatsoever. Pope came in expecting that drop defense and preparing for it and we did nothing to offset that with any wrinkles, I’m not sure why.
Overall the team was very young this year with 4 of our 5 best players being first year players. Lots of talent, but talent that has not matured to the players they will be in 3 years. Was good to get those types of players but ultimately, first year players can’t be your go-to players without lots of ups and downs.
In this new CBB environment it seems having an older team mix with light mix of 5 start talent is the path for national titles. Hopefully Brad can adjust next year.

Arizona 2.0 ?
I agree … NBA scouts don’t …
Put someone in and foul Williams
How the %#@! do we actually have the change to be down 7? UK is SO bad.

6 missed free throws haven't helped.

Get a full year of Fletch with Tomi, his conditioning isn't on par with what we've come to expect.
Took WAY too long for us to change our defense.
Tomi is tired. Everything short.
