They rebound better than in past years, but they gave up a lot of second chances in the second half today. The defense is really bad. The only alphas on O are Ross and James. Everyone else plays weak on O.

We were outscored 31-12 once we took a 13 pt lead.  We got it back to have a chance to win, but that's where the game was lost.

They like each other. The fact you're so focused on basketball is annoying, we're building relationships here.

I'm guessing they are great at relationships and some type of growth. Definitely not victories.

In past years, prior to the game staring, the announcers would always discuss MU's type of play, deflections and other issues.  Past two games, they discuss the non portal strategy and philosophy of Shaka.  Fanta/Bahe brought it up even during the game. Brain Anderson last two prior games discussed it and again used the "culture" wording throughout.

So, it has come down to this, not talking about actual on the court play, but philosophy of a coach.  Is that what MU is now noted for?

Dribbling aimlessly on the perimeter.
Missing layups.

Yeah, it's bad. RGV had a chance to be a really cool thing, but sadly it didn't work out. I'm choosing to have faith in Shaka that he realizes this and will change course. If he triples down on it (he's already doubled down on it), then we need to get him out of here asap.

Not all up in arms about this loss. I'll never be happy when MU loses, but it's best long term if this season just leaves zero doubt that the current strategy doesn't work.

Make the fanbase sound like my five 5 year old and younger nieces and nephews at 8 PM after all of their energy has run out.

Honestly don't get it wades. I understand there have been a handful of ceaselessly negative posters around here, but they're far from the majority.
Most have valid frustrations and concerns with what's going on with this team and, more importantly, the process that got us here. If you disagree, cool. Tell us why. Explain how these performances are nothing to worry about and how the criticism is wrong.
But you should be better than personally attacking anyone who dares criticize Shaka or his strategy as a whiner, child, etc.
