In case you are not yet aware, Kent State just finished going to Austin TX and defeating the Longhorns on their home floor. FYI, this is the same Flash team which was picked to finish fourth in our division.
They not only won, but proved themselves to be the better team. They held the hot Longhorns to 43 points with less than 5 minutes left in the game. Whenever Texas appeared to be on the verge of a comeback, the Flashes inevitably came up with a critical offensive rebound or made shot. I have yet to see the same kind of grit from our beloved Bobcats. I didn't see it live at Marshall nor did I witness it against Iona or W. KY.
Is it time to panic, I don't know. It certainly appears as though it is time to stop being delusional and get to work immediately.

At least the MAC's doing better in the hoops OOC schedule than it is in the bowl season!

Not sure what all these cease fires are about that keep popping up, but it would be nice to have extra bodies. You may not play all three rotation minutes every game, but there was probably one game we could have used Wadley and one game we could have used Gollon.

You don't need an 11 man rotation, but it would be nice to have more than 8 guys we can depend on.

Texas 6-6 with their best win at home over Alabama (80)
Georgia Tech 7-4 with their best win on the road over VCU (55)

Sorry, you are seeing what you want to see. But panic if you feel you must.

I actually have an apartment at The Domain in Austin and go to eat at the Park regularly. They have a great steak salad and I really enjoy myself there. This is a fake Alan post.
But the part about me being in Austin, eating at the Park and being all around very wordly is true.
This is very similar to most Alan post,except mine is true..

Head on down to Cafe No Se at the South Congress Hotel and tell the chef de cuisine that I sent you. He's an OU grad. You'll love the food.

Agreed.

This isn't as bad as TOS's classic 6-man rotations, but it drives me crazy when we've got rotation players on the bench who can't actually crack the rotation, particularly in OOC games. Getting a 9th guy 5-8 minutes in games like these shouldn't be that tough and it would keep legs fresher, loose balls easier to get to later in the games.
