It's gotten to the point every time Flagler and Mayer enter the game, we immediately lose leads.

Get Meyer out of the game. Turns the ball over, gives up a 3, and then gives up a transition bucket.

This is why Cunningham is my player of the year..Butler gets into foul trouble too much.

We need the pre COVID Flagler back

Flagler needs to quit shooting.

No one is going to convince me we have a championship level defense. Flagler at this point is just a liability. And Mayer is having is usual *** stretch he goes through for multiple games

Osu averages 16 turnovers on the year

We forced them into 16 and 18 when we played them

Hopefully he realizes it's not going to be his night, and he can focus on distributing the ball, and play good defense

One was on a turnover where he wasn't thinking and fouled him out of what looked like frustration due to his turnover.

The first... I can't remember.

They look like their feet are stuck in cement they are so lazy and slow on defense.

Let me guess, Higgins called them on him?

Good grief put Cryer in.

C'mon, Bears - go on a run!

Disagree. He's to good to put him on the shelf. Got to let a shooter shoot his way out of a slump

Pathetic transition defense, almost feels like we're about to get blown out...have to make 3s against this defense, and we're not currently making them.

We are a shell of the defense we showed in December and January.

We look a step slow in everything. This is bad coming into tourney time

He has not shot well since the COVID break and has become an offense liability.

For the life of me I can't understand how our transition D is so bad right now. It was a strength of the team the first half of the yr
CaliByWayOfKS
How long do you want to ignore this user?
This is beyond pathetic... even on offense guys are just ****ing standing around doing nothing. If it isn't a drive to the bucket no one is moving.

Defense... for crying out loud move... Move... MOVE...

Agreed. We dominated defensively before.

Not true. He had an incredible game against isu right after the COVID break. His slump started the next game at Kansas. But you are correct that he has been a liability on offense. I still maintain he needs to get some shots up.

Of course, Higgins.

We really need to get on a run with Cunningham out with fouls.

Higgins straight up hates us. Must be a Frog grad?

He's from Nebraska and about the biggest KU homer in terms of calls there is.

Kentucky fans lit his ass up after he screwed them in the tourney a few years back.

Gonna have to turn this **** off stream wise and get back to work and just watch via the gamecast play-by-play instead.

Other than Mitchell and Vital I just don't see any effort out there at all.

Flagler needs to go to the bench the rest of the game and Drew needs to put in Cryer. At this point I'd trust him to run up and down a court at least vs Flagler

Our defense sucks
