And 1-0. Good god peeeps can we let the season play out past the 1st game b4 we body bag a season. I've coached at a very competitive level (different sport) and one of the hardest games of the season is the opener. Let's all relax and actually see how the season plays out. When did we go from youthful optomistic alumni to a bunch of old curmudgeons? The Ritchie McKay era edit: I see TheGlove called it as Jay John era. Mine was The Little General. They were essentially tied in the W/L reecord.

LMAO... no what it means is you lose all semblance of meaningful posting when you compare OSU hoops to Oregon hoops/observations. As much of a slime bucket DA is (another topic that my buddies from Omaha know in detail) observations of said teams is completely irrelevant... talent level, style of play, recent history. There were no "predictions" that game 1 was how the rest of the season would play out. There are comments how how it is similar to the other unsuccessful attempts to play team ball and be successful in the Pac12... unless topping out at 9-9 is all people want. The exhibition and game 1 shows the same trends as the last two seasons (injuries or not, the same type of play persisted)... 21-43/8-28/1-22 on the road. Trended up last season without key injury, but same disjointed play with no on-court leadership. Again... EVERY game is part of a season and shows trends. Point being, no one is saying OSU is doomed. Just that the level of play is the same even though the excuse of youth is gone, and it must improve... dramatically to be a Pac12 quality team. I was not comparing the teams. I was discussing the concept of evaluating a team early in non-conference. I guess I would not lay the ground work for "I told you so" regarding a trend or tendency for the new season ... just based upon my own experience with assessing basketball teams this early. Enjoy If you have experience assessing OSU seasons over the last two years, you know what you see in game 1 is a good indication of what you are going to see in game 20. That is the only reason you see anyone here voicing any level of concern. That is all it is, no one throwing towels in as some have over-exaggerated on this thread and others. Be thankful that you have the luxury that da has a track record of his paid for talent improving over the season.

Oh, how I long for the day when our football team can win by 13 and everyone can bitch about it not looking pretty. You guys are funny. I don’t see anyone body bagging a season. When is it ok to start talking about this team? A couple more games? 10?Good and bad, or just the good stuff? I see people getting jacked up on future seasons based on verbal commits, but we can’t talk about the current season, with the guys on the court, right after a game? “Good God”....lol, so dramatic.

I said we won the 1st game by 13. That’s it. Way to over react. Yes, you need to wait a few games at least before you judge the team. You’re the one getting “jacked” up.

No, that is not true, you said more than that, and that is what I responded to. I do not agree that everyone is bitching. Hey, there was a women’s game last night, and there are some folks in Bernice’s Place evaluating the game, offering their opinions, etc., better get over there and shut them down.

stop me if you have seen this before : 1) unrecognizable offense sets 2) terrible ball movement 3) over dribbling 4) taking the ball to bad spots on the floor 5) unwillingness or inability to enter the ball to a big that is open. 6) forced shots at the end of the shot clock 7) not setting a proper screen or using a screen 8) half ass defensive effort I hope it was just first game jitters, but I saw this act all last year. hopefully there will be much improvement on Saturday. right now they look like a bottom feeder in the Pac 12 and possible coaching change. this is on the head coach. I watch other teams run offense, set screens, move the ball in and out (the way to break down a defense) and get good shots. I hope I am wrong and in march we are talking about an NCAA bid. And 1-0. Good god peeeps can we let the season play out past the 1st game b4 we body bag a season. I've coached at a very competitive level (different sport) and one of the hardest games of the season is the opener. Let's all relax and actually see how the season plays out. I would agree with you if it was a new system but it's hard to wait and see when you've waited and seen.
