I plan on re watching the NCAA games from last year within the next week to remind me not to get too down. It was a good year. It's a good sign that there's some disappointment. Last year was the first year I followed CLOSELY (MAC tourney 2010 were the first games I watched) & now I'm sold for life. Hopefully other students feel that way as well.

So does loving your school and your team dictate that you are to never speak an unpopular or even unwanted truth unless you follow the masses that do the same thing? Are you sheep? Do you not dare that the program becomes more and more elevated each year? Or do you just compare our school's track record with the likes of Central Michigan, Northern Illinois etc. and feel we are "elite" compared to those programs so that's good enough to turn a blind eye to anything that we could and/or should have been or will be but wasn't or won't be on the national scale?

I don't think I've ever had a sports loss hurt more than this one and I think it's because I feel so bad for such awesome seniors to go out this way.

An honest man not trying to rip a senior class that gave us way more "up's" then "down's". +1   I really thought this team would find themselves again by March.  Watching DJ run the floor made me appreciate basketball a lot more.  When he was locked in, the sky was the limit with him.  He really was an artist out there.  I hope to watch him in the NBA someday.  Not sure we'll ever see anybody with such talent. I'll tell ya where we'll go. Someplace warm. A place where the beer flows like wine. Where beautiful women instinctively flock like the salmon of Capistrano. I'm talkin' bout a little place called... ATHENS.

However, it has been great to see the Bobcat Nation of fans rise and get behind these teams. Ohio teams need their fans to support the talent, to help them acheive where I believe our programs are moving towards. GO OHIO!! Bleed Green and GO OHIO!!

I can't tell if you're being deliberately obtuse or if your anger over the Christian hire is getting in the way of your reading comprehension.  Either way, there are very few people here claiming this season didn't contain plenty of disappointments. Instead, there's just dozens of people who completely disagree with you regarding how OU can take that next step, and what it fundamentally means to do so. You think failing to follow up a Sweet 16 run with another Sweet 16 run is a monumental failure and indicates that we have regressed; others recognize--correctly, I should add--that taking the next step is a long, slow process that requires organizational culture change and financial commitment. Losing to Akron 3 times this year doesn't negate the strides that have been made towards those ends, nor do your overly simplistic views on Christian's coaching acumen.  Back to Top OUVan General User Member Since: 12/20/2004 Location: Bethesda, MD Post Count: 5,580 Status: Offline     RE: I'm Depressed.    Posted: 3/20/2013 10:12:13 AM  Wilson Hall Record Holder wrote: JSF wrote: You're right; it hurts so much because they accomplished so much.

Where the hell did he even imply that?   Yes, it's okay to voice a negative opinion.    You seem to be saying that every opinion needs to be negative or you are sheep.  Are you saying that since we lost two basketball games that you aren't proud to be a Bobcat, love our school or love the team?    If you can't appreciate this senior class just because they didn't match your expectations then you really need to check your priorities.   My guess is that in about ten years you will be ripping the team that we are putting on the floor and waxing nostalgic about this team.
