Seriously what else needs to be said? I'm not even going to make a Licklighter joke. How many shots within 2 feet of the hoop were missed last night? I remember seeing MG miss a couple, Woody always does, Uhl missed a few inside although they were tough ones, Wagner missed a wide open layup.. I mean there's like 10 or 12 pts or so right there. Not to mention free throws again... So taking some of the open outside jumpers out of it I just can't believe these guys aren't converting the gimmies. If this is some kind of mental/physical wall I dunno. But this is where Fran gets paid the big bucks. The other schools have guys that are tired worn out and nicked up too. He and the staff better get this ship turned around at OSU or this special season may be spiraling... 2 weeks ago I had final BIG championship and final 4 dreams. Now I don't even know what to think....

Is that all you have to say today?
He so badly wanted a reply..... and he got it.
He also is going to win the GOP nomination, and that's crazy.
Guy hangs out with some players for one day and thinks he's a fan.
Do you notice how other teams players can go up from close to the hoop and slam it home. Our guys have poor footwork around the hoop and are just not explosive going up.

That would be RECRUITING MY FRIEND. Fran is a middling coach. We are the only team I know that has TO's and does the same lame ARSE thing at the end of every half. Gesell dribble doing nothing then either try to drive and get cut off or pass to someone on the wing with a man in his face. It's disgraceful how pathetic Fran's end of half coaching is.
Yup. It was hard not to notice how Wisky had that kid doing his best Doug Thomas impression dunking it half the time he touched it. Woodbury and Uthoff just don't go hard to the rim when they are around the hoop. Uthoff has to have a running head start. And Woody is Woody not sure he can jump over a coloring book off two feet. Is it an athletic coordination thing or lack of emphasis from the trainers getting them into that kind of shape? Basketball should be all about being able to start and stop quick and explode off the floor and like you mentioned most of our guys show little of it least of which our big guys.
