He has every right to call out Caleb Love, you act like this was the first time his effort has been historically non-existent. If he wants to be the Big Dog NBA stud, THIS SHIT CANNOT CONTINUE!!!! Leader? Not by a long shot!
I love Hubert but there were some factors in his hiring that should not have been part of the hiring process.
We were bad is all areas, when I saw that possession where Kentucky got like 6 offensive rebounds in one series….I knew we were done. We already knew we can’t guard small quick guards but our bigs lack of toughness was exposed tonight.
Neither had Dean nor Roy when he joined KU. Nor Mark Few. He wouldn't have been my first choice, but he is our HC and it's 11 games into season 1. I know it was a super disheartening loss, but I'm not ready to holler about Davis yet. He didn't even pick most of these players. They are a super talented team on paper so I was hoping for better than we've seen so far for sure.
Got no problem calling him out…lol at my first sentence……but I don’t want to pretend like anybody else was any better on defense or effort.
I felt, and feel, the same way, and so far it looks like I am right. And believe me I want to eat Crow in the worst way. We are closer to an 8-20 team than we are to a 20-8 team by far. And I hope I eat my words!
I just said he was learning, which he is. I wasn't calling for his resignation.
Bacot scored well…..but defensively….no one played well…not even Leaky
Ugh, I hate when people say this. I could give you thousands of examples of new coaches failing. Almost all of them do. Past results don't guarantee future results.
Agreed. I am quite worried we may see an extended time of mediocrity that State fans are used to since Jimmy V was fired. I still say we hired the wrong guy, and I blame Roy for this mess, along with other issues that shouldn’t have been a part of a coaching search. Having said that I hope I am proved wrong. I’ve always liked Hubs, but not as the HC
Here is what I would add…when ALL our guards and Leaky got blown passed by that little guard…..that little guard was just laying the ball in the hoop….where was our rim protector?
Well It’s early but I see some changes that needs to be made……now let’s see what the man says about tonight
This team doesn’t have one….. Not a true jump above the rim a foot protector. No “enforcer” on the floor either.
Huh? I'm not saying they do. But when the stat provided can also be applied to our last two all-time great coaches, I don't think it holds too much water.
So did I, a couple weeks ago. Incredibly piss poor use of what is a very talented team on paper ..
How would you use the talent differently?? This roster has major flaws mainly the lack of a true point. Love doesn’t play hard and could care less about defense. Davis is just a dribbling black hole that’s too small to finish. Problem is you can’t bench them cause there’s nobody to bring in. Ant and Leaky are offensively challenged. Kerwin can’t even make a simple pass without it being stolen. Garcia just wants to shoots 3’s and can’t rebound cause he’s softer than charmin… it’s not going to get much better unless Hubert sacrifices a win to prove a point and teach the team a lesson
What point will he teach? Love, RJ, Harris nor Leaky could guard that little guy Wheeler….but we already knew that from the Cof C game. What made it worst is when he got past them our 7 footer and 6:11 guy can’t protect the rim.
Yeap the downside of most stretch bigs….got to use them in the right way.
Do they have a coaches portal?
That little guy scored ALL of his points within 15 feet of the basket and most at the rim. I watched him play 4 games this year and a lot over the last few years at Georgia, HE CAN'T SHOOT!
Well maybe Hubert learned the one thing many of us didn’t like about Roy….stubbornness.
Agreed. They wanted it, now they own it. I’m sitting here with the popcorn watching a dumpster fire. Oh and it’s not going to get better because the HC doesn’t have the experience to fix the myriad of problems this team has.
