Its going to be a loooooong season.

Even with Tinkle this team lacks talent, without him it is at best Big Sky level. The good news is we might be able to stay out of the cellar because WSU is also terrible.

Haha my goodness. No one said this is strictly about 'winning.' Since even you seem to have given us no chance. But it SHOULD BE about at least competing and showing more effort on defense while getting torched from three point range AGAIN.
45-19 at the half? I'll bet Tinkle was quite dissatisfied w that garbage too

And big sky was right. Lamar Peters, who hit 12 threes in a HS game last year and WAS a four star recruit....was who we weren't defending from the three point line. Not sure how that makes us look better. Seems like that's someone we should have been trying against

I'm in no way saying I was satisfied with the performance. The first half was almost impossible to watch. The second half to me showed improvement, we did outscore them by 9 in the second. My biggest problem was the lazy telegraphed passes we seemed to continuously make.

We lost the only two returning point guards (Bruce and Duvivier)and the only alpha player (Payton) from last years team. There is no leadership from Tinkle or Thompson (perhaps the coaches too), and the two power forwards are either close to being dismissed from the team and still recovering from injury and to top it off we have little unity overall. I look for maybe 2 or 3 wins in the league.

The beginning of this season has shown me really how special GPII was. I almost feel like I need to rewatch a few of his games to truly appreciate his greatness. Sort of like how I always pause on ESPN Classic when a Bulls game from the 80s/90s is on. I hated MJ as a kid (he was always the enemy in my house) and was constantly trying to convince myself he wasn't THAT good. Really took what I was watching for granted. Even though I loved GPII, I'm feeling the same tinge of regret that I wasn't comprehending what I was seeing at the time.

I won't name names, but we have way too many that are not Pac-12 caliber. That is on Coach Tinkle.
