I understand not everybody has the same disposition as I do when we are getting run out of the gym — as we were, which looked very familiar to other losses. I vented as such and you called me out. It’s fine if you don’t care for what I have to say. I generally try to be even-keeled and not piss people off, so I moved onto my own thread as suggested to not rock the boat on game day.

      He really did get screwed by injury this year. Garland is an absolute stud. He just started recruiting well and has a solid young base to build from. I thought another year was the right call.

      mayjay said: @justanotherfan I appreciate both your experience and your knowledge, but how are you so sure it is a problem of trying to avoid mistakes? It seems equally likely to me that he is perhaps not trying hard enough to avoid mistakes. He has been as likely to drive with nowhere to go as he has been to be too tentative, and some of his shots–feet not set, not squared to the basket–do not show signs of being cautious. Likewise, a few passes to places where his teammates are not. I’ve spent most of the last two games watching Grimes exclusively when he has been on the floor. He’s incredibly indecisive with everything. He seems to decide to do one thing, then change his mind halfway into the move. He will drive to nowhere rather than looking to attack his man off the dribble. If he confronts even the slightest defensive resistance, he will either dribble back out or pick up his dribble. He will sometimes shoot as an afterthought. There have been moments where he has been looking to pass and then shot as sort of a last resort. He needs to simplify the game for himself right now by doing two things. Make it his goal to play harder than everyone else on defense. Completely lock in on that end. If that produces some transition opportunities, all the better. Hit the offensive glass. Grimes hasn’t had more than 4 rebounds in any game this season. With his athleticism, that should not be the case. He needs to look to crash the offensive boards more. Those are both “effort” things rather than skill things. Sometimes, when the skill stuff isn’t happening, you can get thrown off, but effort doesn’t get into slumps.

Love to be wrong and after beating BC, maybe gives this team enough momentum and confidence to pick off a few BIG12 teams this year. AGREE , Think if we can win 4-5 games - you got to feel like been a good start this year. I feel we have a good shot at WV , - - Tech - and I know people will laugh , BUT I still think we have a shot at K-State - -we win those 3 there is our 5. - -I know K-State looks pretty solid , but just feel like that we might just be able to get it done , got them here is a plus - -just got to get the fans in the stands to help support the guys . We need to show our backing for the games, the guys notice that whether some think so or not - this team is going to get this done - -w got some pieces in place - fan support is another piece - -I think 4-5 wins is within range for this year - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
