So did anyone actually spend time this off-season getting better or they just sat around and get told how good they would be this year?

I think I missed it, is Spencer out for the season? Don't know that it's been officially confirmed, but there was a note in the final JS pre-season article that said they lost Spencer for what could be the whole season. I would expect it at this point.

We need BJ to take over. Be aggressive, draw fouls and get to the line. I believe we need to play some better defense as well - a common theme for this team so far this year. Ironically, it seems our offense plays better and in sync when the defensive intensity is higher. Weird how that happens.

This "team" plays like it's coached by Baldwin. Just a bunch of individual players out there. A recipe for disaster, as we all very well know!

Honestly, the nicest thing you could say right now is that the team straight up sucks on both ends. That's being nice.

Not sure what, if anything, can be expected of this team at this point.
It's sad that our loss against Providence has been really the ONLY game where we'd played very well as a whole.

Just gotta tip your cap to Stetson. The hatters are playing like the MAD hatters today, and I’m a hater!

As of today, ATM, 15 wins total might be this team's high ceiling. As of today.

My pre-season fears are being realized. Did not adequately replace the frontcourt from a season ago (much less improve it) and didn't add quality ball handlers. Obviously having Spencer would help.

Fields has no reason to be in this game. His hands are bricks.

We need BJ to take over. Be aggressive, draw fouls and get to the line. I'm pretty much in the same mental space at the moment. He needs to put on the cape and bail us out. Think about the Providence game, our season highlight so far. How would we have fared without him?

Bench EJ. Dude is horrific. The worst body language on the team in addition to bad defense, selfish offense, turnover prone, and inefficient shooting. Like he does not deserve to be in the game even if the other options are untalented trash. He's been consistently garbage this year.

Straight up that fastbreak by KP encapsulates the season. THat should be an easy drop pass to the trailer for a monster dunk to energize the team. Instead KP goes for a contested layup and gets fouled and doesn't even convert. Selfish asf play that pollutes this roster top to bottom.

Might as well play Pratt & Franklin instead. Surely can't be any worse than them.

Extremely disappointing start to the season to say the least. This team looks nothing like what we were expecting...at least so far.
