This team lacks athleticism.   I'm not sure any of the guards or forwards outside of JJ can dunk the ball! ......No one outside of JJ can create his own shot!....and  its killing them defensively. 

and one more thing....I really hate that Fischer hook shot.  That is a lazy shot he puts up after he's unable to back his guy up.

Wait till next year, a familiar refrain for the MU faithful. Agree with your comments. Unless Wojo lands a stud Juco we are going to have to let the young guys get abused as Freshmen.

Check it out: All the top Jucos are signed.  This Juco pining is pointless.  Not gonna happen this year.  Focus on Greg Elliott and then it'll be the grad transfer market.

This has been frustrating. We survived the gauntlet of the first 8 games. Went 5-3. It was supposed to be easy after that. Definitely didn't see this stretch coming

When you're built with an offense background instead of a defensive background, this happens.

I have zero confidence that next year's team will be better.

Same here.  I am preparing for another year of mediocrity.  I look forward to the new coach for 2018-2019.

To make the tourney all we have to do is beat X at least once and beat creighton that would give us 4 top 50 wins. We are going in the right direction just a minor set back. We will be fine

We have 3 top 50 wins currently, and Georgia would make it 4 if they have a strong finish (currently 53).  Georgetown and Vandy in the low 60s also have a small chance to end up top 50. If we get 1 of 2 from X and beat Creighton, we'll have either 5 or 6 top 50 wins (4 of those top 25). Honestly, very few teams outside of the top 4 or 5 seeds have more top 50 wins that we do currently. 
I would take the Rick SLU program right now.

Pitiful out put this past weekend, embarrassing to watch. Zero progress has been throughout the season, one step forward and two back. These seniors, esp JJJ, are taking no ownership of their team. I liked Duanes comments after the game calling out his fellow teammates. We need someone on the team to make everyone accountable. We have no fire and no passion right now, coaches are doing a poor job of in game coaching. Sick of it.

When will a Wojo team play defense?  That's my p-a-n-i-c worry.  Has not happened yet in 2 and 3/4 seasons.

I've been curious about this point. What do people keep saying we haven't played defense ever under Wojo? The first two seasons our defense was ranked considerably above our offense. This was the first year that the offense is better than the defense. Defense is an obvious concern, but I think it is a new issue this year.

Because people don't have the mental capacity to remember the good defense against Butler six days ago much less what happened in Wojo's first two seasons.
