I thought it was kind of odd how big favorites we were on ESPN and this start (all be it still very early) certainly has done nothing to change my mind.

If something doesn’t change very quickly we will have been absolutely blown out in half our games this year.

We don't look like we have veteran players on the court - sloppy passing, ball handling, and shot selection everywhere. This game is likely an L. It's going to be a long, long season.

I will say it again Darius should have went pro! 📉Mckay’s coaching style is a little outdated but they could ended up slightly over .500 this year. No chance at winning Conf look at the other teams and who they are beating. JMO!

Despite the score the defense looks better. The offense is atrocious

His style is fine. I’m just not sure he has the players for it. Neither Senior big has developed into a difference maker on either end. No secondary scorer has developed. I do like the 2 freshman but they are pieces not cornerstones

Calm down. They are hitting everything
We are not hitting open looks.
This is basketball
If you have played at any level, this is what happens.

So Miss can’t hit. LU has hit a couple of 3’s. And I think fouled on 4 straight possessions

Interesting that this run has been done with DM sorta tucked in a corner

The coaching staff must be monitoring this board. 3 straight possessions to the mismatch
Love LU getting back into it running offense not focused on DM. That was a good move. Let’s see how the next z737 play out
