I don't think you understand what I mean by "65th best" or whatever.
Imagine we get Steph Curry on our team, but he decides to never take any shot from closer than half court. Every few possessions he jacks it up from the backcourt but otherwise he refuses to shoot. Is he one of the best players in the Big Ten? Or one of the worst?
Bailey may well be in the top five most talented and/or skilled players in the conference, but he is not using his skills in a way that helps the team win. There are tons of players, multiple players on every team, who are playing within themselves and doing more to help their team win than Bailey is.
Some people here might say that but most of the pundits don't. I don't. I said in one of these threads if Alabama had only lost 1 of Vandy or OU, they probably would have gotten in and I'd be okay with that. The fact that Alabama was even considered as a 3 loss team shows the respect they get and the SEC gets. No other 3 loss team anywhere is getting that consideration as an at large this year. Eventually, there will be years where 3 loss teams get im, it would've happened in the last 10 years of the CFP if it were 12 teams.It is a little ironic that people are bashing SEC for saying "wins don't matter" while those same people are also saying "anyone but Alabama or another SEC team".
Implying only the name matters and they don't want the same names.
Regardless of resume or wins.
It's the same argument.
remember Kennesaw State was a good team. Our fans like to cope this way.OSU yes, Princeton no.
Princeton is good for an Ivy team but not good or even mediocre for a P5 team.
Bro also forgets that Greg has come no where near landing a top NFL pick let alone 2 out of the top 5 in a given year like we have in basketball… cue Ash providing reasons on why we got Ace and Harper and not giving Pike credit for any part of landing those two recruits.Miles ahead?? We just made the lowest tiered bowl game in the B1G. We had a soft schedule this year and were lucky to make a bowl game.
You are a miserable poster and should go follow Chris ash wherever he may be and get off these boards for your own health.
i believe he took a few shots in a key stretch in Vegas...unconscionableI am sure he thought because he can make them
Nonsense our two studs came on campus in June, Adidas was already out long before then.We pissed off adidas by having our five star basketball freshman wear Nike shoes. When our contract was up, they were out. Why the hell would they renew with us? Under armor wouldn't sign with us considering what we did to adidas.
Nike has no reason to sign with us considering they already have our two most valuable assets signed in two nba lottery picks and they have no competition with the other big companies. It's looking even worse for us considering we're probably not going to make the tournament.
We did it to ourselves. Awful leadership. They gambled hard on our basketball team and they've been a disappointment.
Well it helps more than being 0-1 right?Assuming we are playing in the 1st round (9-15 seeds), does beating an at- best fellow bubble team followed by another loss to a tournament team really move the needle much?
Even if we get a bye, wouldn't we just be beating the same bubble at beat team (9-15 team) then losing for a solid tournament team.
When people say "and 1-1 in the Big Ten Tournament" what are you imagining and how does it help?
0-1 badSeems only 2-3 wins (followed with another loss) in the conference tournament does anything?
Doubling down on your bs, but now typing in bold caps. That will do it
I don't think you understand what I mean by "65th best" or whatever.What exactly is your point? That ace isn't good?
These types of posts are pure troll.. just being negative to be negative. No way anyone knows anything about basketball and after watching these games you conclude ace is the 65th best offensive player or whatever you're saying. Lol you can say he needs to learn to get to his spots, needs to look to pass more, more hustle more rebounding but to say he's the 65 th best player and quote some analytics is pure troll..they invented analytics for internet arguments..Give me a break, 65th best player? Are you a robot or can you use the eye test?
