If we end up losing a bunch of guys off this team (who we all know aren't remotely ready), BBN is going to jump ship next year.

I'm not sure. After tonight I want Diallo gone. Sorry to say, I don't see his mentality changing for the better next year.

I'm not so sure I want Knox back to be honest. Doesn't seem like he cares. Don't care that he may be our best player and scoring option.

For now I'll take SGA, Richards, Green and PJ back. JV too, although he's really struggled. They give effort from what I've seen.

Hate to say it, but TN is just better. It's not the refs, not the crowd, not the weather. They are just a better bb team.

Don’t worry Cats get to go to Gainesville later and kick our ***. It’s like a trip to the Timeshare at the beach.. What the hell happend to both of our seasons.. I’ve already moved on to baseball .After football and now b-ball, I’ve about had it with Gator men sports.
Good luck to u guys at the dance .. we won’t be showing up for that.

FT shooting was the difference just based on the box score. But the SGA turnovers in reality.

I would add SKJ and Gabriel to that group.

I am not sure why SKJ seems to have such a short leash compared to other guys (although I do think he should be a better rebounder).

WG at least hustles and can hit a spot up 3 when the a decent offensive possession is run.

Believe this or not, but i saw some positives tonight. Defense was much better, played harder, scrambled for loose balls.

Get the sense that some of these players are just punching the clock to get to the NBA. Give me players that hate to lose more than they love to win. I want some guys that will run through a fire in a gasoline suit to win a game.

All you guys asking this question; have you paid attention this season? Have you seen our offense coming out of timeouts? Have we ever made a single shot coming out of a timeout? I can't remember one.
Very true but I think most were wanting the timeout just to save the turnover.

Gator football won't be down long. Mullen won't be taking odd deep sea fishing trips. He'll be building a tough as nails football team. He will have no trouble beating Stoops with UF talent.

I’m a beaten man right now Filson.. Don’t know what to think. Should got to the Art Galley and Theater shows with my wife and call myself “puss”instead of following sports..

Diallo and knox are huge disappointments. i really thought they were going to be the two superstars at the beginning of the year.

And they have as much BASKETBALL talent or more than we do despite the high school rankings. We are not a very skilled team and when you add that we struggle with a feel for the game that's not a good combination. But I still think they are good kids who want to be better, they just aren't as good individually as most think.

You guys are incredible, the players couldn't have choked harder if they tried but lets forget about all that

I know you are one of the ones who worship at the Cal altar. The team played hard except for a couple guys who get way too long a leash thanks to the coach. They have no offensive sets thanks to the coach. Their defense and rebounding was very good which is effort. Their coach sat on 2 timeouts until he had lost the game.

I get it, and normally I agree. I've just seen too many "dribble the clock out and throw up a prayer" offenses coming out of timeouts this season. Admittedly, what we ended up getting was somehow worse than that.

Agree on both. SKJ if given Richards minutes would double the production. But certain players are always on Cals trigger lost and he's one of them. Has to pay mistake free to stay on the floor.

I agree that statement isn’t the best or what I want to hear. But what is he supposed to say, “We’re hosed. The season is over.”
