    Probably right but its more we don't care enough to fund basketball at a high level. We were estimated to be in that 14-16 range in player payroll in the league.

    I kinda hope we lose back to back just so I never have to watch Harris ever again.

    He’s like 3/4 on the list of who I’m excited to never have to watch play again.

    I'm assuming KJ and Dick are 1/2 in some order.

    I won't miss them either, but I'd argue pretty strongly that they aren't the problem with this team (specifically Dick). He is fine if you let him stick to his role, and even then, he's putting up numbers with his flaws. Someone has to score points. The problem is those two are being asked to do stuff they aren't equipped to do.

    Harris has simply not gotten better in 5 years and frankly has regressed. He makes some of the dumbest rookie mistakes that someone like him shouldn't make. Especially since he contributes next to nothing on the offensive end - he has to be better to make up for that, and he is not.

    Between him and KJ, playing with only 3/5 of a lineup on the offensive end is a fucking killer.

    Bill is the problem with this years team :twocents:

    I dislike KJ far and away the most. He has so much athleticism but has shown zero ability to do anything at all on offense, and his lack of rebounding is unjustifiable with his size and athleticism.

    Agreed and mostly agreed. I give KJ a bit of a pass because his role is less important than Harris or Dick and he's simply being asked to do things he can't do. But yes, his lack of development mirrors Harris and they both frustrate the hell out of me.

    Ed Cooley and Georgetown were 0-3 against DePaul this season

    That's the first time DePaul has beat the same opponent three times in a season since 1999-00 against Charlotte.

    Texas was scrambling and out of sorts with 8 seconds on the shot clock, that timeout made no sense even without the rest of the context of what happened after
