Ok after watching this awful display of basketball against Tulsa (and who knows they still have plenty of time to come back and win) I think I have figured this out.
I think this team is living off the fact that they are the defending National Champions and that alone should win them some games with only marginal effort. Well here are the FACTS: Only Ryan Boatright has the luxury of milking that championship run. He is the only one on this team who significantly contributed to that unbelievable achievement. I realize Brimah and T Sam had some shining moments but their contributions were minimal in relation to Boat and last year's real players (Bazz, Daniels and Giffey).
This team has to wake up and start playing and FOCUSING hard. When you get to the free throw line, FOCUS!!! Don't assume when you throw up your shot it is going in because after all "WE" are the defending National Champs. Earn the respect you feel you are entitled to!!!
