Cade has been playing/shooting really well this preseason too.

I get your frustrations. The only comfort I can offer is that it seems like this football season has brought out your basketball fandom!

Because I'm approaching the situation in a much more nuanced manner, taking in more data, while you're not? Okay.

Improvement can occur, meaningful at that, and still lose a game. It's not a bit. The "eye test" should not be connected to the final outcome of a game. Feel free to do so, but I think you are being naïve in doing so.

Who really knows. I was pretty let-down when I heard that comment, and changed my expectations. Those fuckers did manage to pull me back into the hype though, the remainder of the Game Day after that segment, only to be reminded during the game.

Was he low-balled? I thought I read on IC that he had his deal with tOSU in place well before BB was hired.

It’s much more nuanced than you think, or are implying. You can’t say that if we play any team close then they have either failed or passed the eye test. There is way too much that goes into a game. You are putting a lot more emphasis on W-L than eye tests or power rankings. (By the way, when...

I agree that the offense needs to help out the defense, but I think (or hope?) they don’t need to score in the 30s to win those games.

During/after which game do you remember posting about schemes? That would greatly reduce the number of pages I need to scroll through.

No need to be a dick.
