I haven't posted or read LV posts in the last few weeks, mostly because it has been decades since I have been this disappointed, shocked, and confused by an entire season of one of my sport's teams. To make matters worse, it has also been over a decade since I have been this excited preseason by...

It is the speculation tradition each year saying that absolutely this player or that player will leave and it rarely happens. Cooper was strongly predicted to leave after last year, some predicted that we would have lost most of the LV players from Kellie's era last year, Rickea was predicted...

Basket seasons are a process with no end until the end of the season. Even then, the team and coaches that are still with the team carry on with the process of being the team. Nevertheless, fans and media put labels on teams, players, and coaches that stick like glue, even if new information...

My wish for this team other than the obvious one of scoring some upsets is that they learn some life lessons and use it to benefit the team as well as individually. Given that this team has been characterized as being emotionally over-reactive, divisive, and giving up. Now is an opportunity to...

That is a good question. I would prefer to face a team that we played poorly against in the regular season, as this seems that it would be motivating to make amends for the poor performance. I think we played fairly well against Alabama and they might want revenge in that matchup. I imagine...

I sort of feel this too but would even feel more so if we weren't coming off the back-to-back road games against top 10 teams. I know most teams had an uneven schedule but this year how the end portion of our schedule is coupled with a team being in crisis mode just SUCKS! The LSU game is...

We win the yie breaker for all 3 teams below us and the 2 teams above us woud win the tiebreaker over us, so looks likely to be 7th win or lose Vandy game.

The top issues in my opinion are 1. The emotional fragility of the best players who are upperclassman. This group is where leaders are typically found but have not been there in pivotal games and reportedly in practice. This team more than most teams needed this due to all the Freshman players...

One could never guess from most of the comments here that hardly anyone expected the LVs to be this competitive in Norman without Barker, 4 games in 8 days, and the coach being under so much pressure. I would say the effort showed that the coach hasn't lost this team even though it can look...

Mia is available, so add some more points to your margin!!!

Gotcha. I write on a very large laptop and so it doesn't look daunting until I see it later on my phone. I will try to keep that James Taylor/Carole King song "You've Got a Friend" in mind. I would say more, but hey, maybe less can be more :).

I was wondering if the 3rd quarter underperformance was a thing last year as well, so I did some hopefully correct math on the regular season SEC games last year. Overall, it looks like the 3rd quarter was relatively similar to the average of the other quarters. If you just look at the sum of...

I couldn't even come here until now. I think this team is extremely hard to watch. All teams have hot and cold periods, but our bad periods are truly horrible. We either play some of the worst defense that I have seen a LV team play (3rd quarter in this and many games) or the offense looks...

You think that would be case, but only a few thousand quiet souls actually show up for MBB. The real competition was baseball, which drew over 30,000 fans over the weekend, gymnastics that drew almost 12,000 the night before, and last but not least, Mardi Gras weekend which has as many parades...

I was watching Civil from the stands during the end of the timeout right before the play and she kept on massaging her calf like she had a cramp. She looked like she was processing what to do and then just realized the play was about to happen and went with it. I hope it is not an ankle.
