they play some of the most undisciplined ball I have ever seen, little Sutton looks like he might die on the sideline. I imagine thye give him one more year though.

There was a good article in the TW about how the problem isn't Sean its player execution. Which I find goes both ways, I mean isn't a coach supposed to teach that? It seems we get younger every year; this year we start 2 true freshman, our 1st guy off the bench is a sophmore who missed 2/3 of last year with a broken fibia and the next guy is a true frosh as well. As you can imagine, there is much grumbling. Still, after having 4 of 5 B12 losses come down to the final possession (not ISU), it shows they are close.

I agree that the close losses show competitveness, but it also shows that OSU has much more talent than their record would indicate, I think they are close in spite of little Sutton's coaching. He is responsible for the discipline and has done a poor job of that recently.

OSU plays with the lowest bball IQ I have seen of anybody in the conference. They don't seem to have any awareness of the situations facing them.

Using Saturday as an example. They have the lead on A&M with less than a minute to go, then they miss a shot, and Harris picks up an unbelievably stupid reach in foul 80 feet from the hoop after the Aggies had already secured the rebound - where A&M promptly takes the lead at the free throw line.

last night late in the game Eaton takes a 25 footer early in the shot clock....

CaptMike's excuses continue... "we're too young"

Why don't you just admit that your team is overrated?

That's the excuse that we used for Jim Woolridge for years. Every year, he lost 5 or 6 games by a total of 10 points or so. But EVERY year, he lost those games.
