  • This team is flat out bad on defense and that is what is so disturbing to me. Cal has said that if you cannot play defense then you cannot play here. I do not see one person on the team that fits that mold tonight. They can't move their feet and cannot rebound. That is inexcusable in my book, just an awful performance all the way around tonight.

    Is it Sunday yet?!? I am more excited to hear what Stoops has to say rather than watch this poor display of basketball! lol
