Can the Wes Miller experiment please be over?

Wes Miller wasn't missing all those 3's

Who are you referring to other than Kelvin Sampson?

This reminds me of how people wanted Cronin fired when he lost to UConn in three straight conference tournaments. Fans latch onto some specific negative criteria and act like that's the minimum threshold we must clear. I (and I'm sure the administration) couldn't care less if we lose every game to some teams over a decade (other than Xavier) as long as we are consistently in the tournament. That's the goal. We're not there yet. This game will have very little impact. It will boost our tourney odds from like 1% to 2%.

What about Memphis? Miller has never beaten Memphis. Also, Miller has lost to Xavier 3 straight years. By the way, Miller lost again tonight to Oklahoma for the 2nd straight time. So what that Cincy lost to UCONN in the conference tournament three straight years. It is demoralizing to lose over and over again to the same team in the conference regular season. Miller has a bad habit of doing that. Guess what, it is NOT going to stop in the BIG 12. There are certain teams that Miller will never beat in the BIG 12. Watch and see.

A win tonight may NOT have moved the needle that much, but it would have gotten UC back in the bubble talks. It does not matter now anyway because they lost the game. The NIT is now a distant hope. Three cheers for Miller.

Additionally, very seldom did Cronin lose over and over again to the same coaches in a season.

And nobody mentions our 6 of 29 for 20% from 3 pointers?

So the answer to missing the tournament again is to stop the Wes Miller experiment and start all over again? You guys do nothing but bash and nitpick every move the man makes. Maybe this team just isn't good enough yet. Especially in such a strong conference.

****, no. Have your best guys transfer out, lose your recruits, and start over. No way.

22 fouls leads to 34 FTs of which OK made 28. Have to be able to play defense without fouling.

Agree! Have to be able to play disciplined defense which this team can not.

NIT bound. How did they lose that game

Couldn't stop fouling. Got beat at the free throw line, same as the first Oklahoma game.

[BearKatz]

Horrible loss! The sequence where we fouled their 3pt shooters (4) times in less than 7mins did us in! If I'm not mistaken, Oklahoma made all 12fts!

[longtimefan]

How'd that workout? SMH!!

It cost us the game, and the season. Nice sub Coach. Another head scratcher sub by Wes.

Terrible 3 point shooting.....stupid fouls.

[Gmann]

SL was awful this game. We had to work hard to give OK this game.
