    I haven't heard a single Buffalo person claim we should move to CUSA ever since the conference lost 9 members. I also don't think WKU would be looking at the MAC had those 9 members still been around. We are merely a life raft of stability.

    Because all of the good C-USA teams are gone, that conference is dead. It wouldn’t have been worth it.

  2. I really like the domination in the boards. 42-28.

    3 things I wanna point out

    1. Where the hell did Tra’von Fagan come from? He’s been stepping up and providing some much needed bench production. 7 points, 8 rebounds for him. If he is able to sustain that the whole year, that’s big for us.

    2. I wish someone would have a sit down with Keishawn Brewton and tell him there’s more to the game of basketball on the offensive side than the 3 pointer.

    3. A good turnaround game for Mballa who was a ghost against the Bonnies. We need him to be the player he was the previous two years in order for us to be successful.

    Overall, I can say this is the most satisfying win of the year. Winning without Williams is huge. Hopefully this can be a bit of a turning point and get a win streak going.

    I appreciate your point of view too.  If a couple donors were willing to help support Oats, maybe they would be willing to support another, future winning coach.  Historical trends are meant to be broken, it could happen. 

    I would have preferred a donation to Oats’ salary, versus say, a field house for the football team.

    Sad truth. Meanwhile there is still a handful of board members that tell us we can’t speak the truth. Instead we need to pretend this is enough. Same for the football team. How is this enough? 

    I sat through Cohane and Witherspoon, and I refuse to go back to average.

    At least a few of those people quit the board… they can’t possibly take the criticism from fans willing to travel 100s of miles to see the team lol

    People don’t get it, the ones who are complaining are the ones who sat through Cohane and Witherspoon. The ones who say through that DO NOT want to go back there. That’s why we are critical. That is why we hold high standards.

    You guys want to blame everyone but our players.  Jim Whitesell did not go 3-of-13 from three point range in the first half.  Players have to make shots... END OF STORY.

    We lost on the road to a team in the national rankings in a hostile environment.  And honestly I am envious of their passion.  All our fans want to do is complain about the head coach instead of actually supporting our team.

    Do you guys honestly even care about our program or do you just complain for the sake of complaining??

    The players’ performance, preparation, game plan, and execution are a reflection of the coaching staff. That’s usually how it is in team sports, especially basketball. It’s been consistent. 
     

    I’ll be the one to admit I’ve jumped to conclusions and maybe in the pre season I was expecting too much and was expecting this team to be close to the 2017 or the 2018 teams. 
     

    But I will not apologize for holding this roster to a high standard and expecting way more than what has been provided thus far this season. I still think we are so much better than how we have played. And we need to make adjustments.

    I still can't get over the loss. We pressured the Bonnies, got them off their game, and managed to tie it up. Only to back off and give them all the time and space in the world to tee up the winning three. 

    Gotta look ahead at this point, and hope we go on a late season win streak like last season. You never know. It’s a long ways to go. I’m over the loss. Time to get back to the MAC championship and win it this time and get back to the tournament where we belong.
