    Bob has to want to get back to traditional defense ASAP

    Very well put......we had only 2 points for much of the half. You aren't going to win any games with that.....unless, of course, you can keep your opponent to 1 pt. It was a game where you lose by 39 points and it wasn't even that close....

    Bob has to want to get back to traditional defense ASAP

    WVU is in the bottom 10% in shooting. KU was our worst nightmare match up. We aren't even that athletic and the press made us overachieve in victories. A taller and more athletic team would run it even better, The guys bought in and ran it. That was great. And they were athletic enough and...

    You really don't want ND breaking the streak

    I agree.... I couldn't live with tha ACC and ND getting accolades. I have Kentucky winning both of my brackets. Once the mountaineers were eliminated, That's all that mattered.

    Got to get bigger, get back to that 6'7+ lineup (a la 2010), if we want...

    agree with 79er......maybe we are top 20-30 in talent. I think the press system gave us the opportunity to win against some more talented teams. Kentucky has 10, A and B + ranked players......we have 10, B and C players. Barkley said it best before the game when saying both teams ran ten...

    I started this earlier .... I agree we could have beaten any other teams but Kentucky on any given night. There is 1 great team, 4 very good teams and 15 good teams. No one is going to beat Kentucky this year. It is a freak show of size and talent. I agree.... We play anyone else and we...

    Bad enough UK pays their players. Paying the officials too. *

    I still wonder why the announcers and refs felt they need to " keep WVU under control". We are an aggressive pressing team. We aren't in fights.... We don't take flagrant fouls.... The fouls are slapping types trying to strip or steal the ball. It's weird .....they act like we play Detroit...

    They have 4, 7 footers. Tall everywhere else too. Most teams including us would die for one talented 7 ft guy. They would beat many NBA teams with their lineup.

    Sorry..... They make up lots of make up calls to make it appear the game was called evenly.

    No surprise..... In blow outs the the refs make Lots offer up calls to prove they are fair . Kentucky is the better team..., Refs took any rare chance away early..., Kentucky wins 8 out of 10 on talent

    Ref absolutely destroyed our chances with those two fouls early on

    Agreed..... Kentucky has ten NBA players Our only chance was to play aggressive. The refs took our only chance by calling those two fouls on our best player and setting the tone. Kentucky wins 8 out of 10 times on talent. We win 2 out of 10 getting some turnovers and calls going our way...

    The refs set the tone with bad calls by giving our best big man two fouls in the first two minutes. Kentucky has superior talent but the refs weren 't going to let aggressive players beat Kentucky, The refs got bad for both teams. They always do in big blow outs. The make up calls to keep...

    Still proud of this team and their accomplishments this season ...

    Good season .... There is one 1 great team in the country. 5 very good and 20 good teams. We ran into a great team, the match up for WVU is terrible. Too tall and a deep athletic team that had a week to get ready for our press. Our guys fought for 40 minutes but out manned by a team that...

    Baltimore Sun

    I agree..... Tough kid and aggressive. The first tumble he jumped up and turned sideways as he flung himself forward. He was out of control and was lucky a mountaineer touched him so he could get the call. The second was part of the game. The third he wasn't even near a mountaineer. Sorry...
