I thought battle for last place deserved an early game thread. Beavers beat the Utes at home. Can they win on the road?

Question for the esteemed board:
Based on what we've seen and the published article/comments, is this the last opportunity for a W?

They’ll have some competitive games where they could win. I think the real question is can they FINISH a winnable game and close it out. That’s something we’ve just been awful at.

Well I mean we always peak this time of year if you go all the way back to last year and no further than that. Wait...correction before Wilky writes 9000 words. Just looked, we weren't very good in Feb last year either (5-4). More of a March team. Nevermind. |

OSUIt's from clownzano, so you don't have to click on it, but I can't disagree with him on this column.

Yeah he’s more than fair and he appears to honestly be trying to figure out what the heck is happening. I actually agree w tinkle and what last game’s announcers said…..this isn’t as much about talent as it is about some other issues

A couple of the transfers should not have been brought in, especially if they have s%#tty attitudes. |

The talent probably would have been fine if the tall Maryland kid could have come off the bench and if Andela was healthy and Hunt didn’t have personal issues. (Not sure why Calloo has been so terrible). But it’s basically just all a mess now anyway

The problem is that with OSUs history of losing it is not exactly a destination for HS players or transfers, WT is bringing in what he can get, which isn't good enough. Beggers can't be choosers. The next head coach and staff need to be dynamic recruiters if we are ever going to get this thing turned around. |

OSUIt's from clownzano, so you don't have to click on it, but I can't disagree with him on this column. The anecdote about trying to team-build and the players switching rooms on their own tells me they just don't get it and we're missing a team leader who would help them get it. |

Damn I am tired of hearing excuses. Tinkle is basically the manager and hired every one of the players. It's nobody's fault but his if he did a poor job of basically checking references.

If he was a honorable guy he would tear up his contract. Sure tinkle is a nice guy see him driving around campus during tailgating but there comes a time.
