Oklahoma State is Begging Fans to Attend Basketball Game vs. UCF
- Thread starter Central Floridave
- Start date
UCF was in the game towards the end, just they did not play defense or block out. Okie State scoring over 100 points when they are the 12th ranked Big12 offense is mind blowing. I know UCF is short handed but whatever happened to emphasizing defense?!? UCF would score, the O-State would just drive quickly straight down with hardly any resistance. The refs were calling a lot of fouls in the 2nd half vs 1st half. Jekyll and Hyde officiating. I don't think they were swaying on one side or the other, just not consistent. After the missed call on Hall (I'm a poet) and the technical foul on Hall, I'm sure the refs talked at half and even they over corrected. Just my opinion. It's frustrating to lost like that, and 7 in a row. Good thing is I'm + on my betting app picking the other team. 
This years team never had a good defense going. They were outscoring teams. Now they aren’t outscoring anyone.

That's a good sign. Hopefully that means Keyshawn stays and so does everyone else. Surround him, Mikey, and Thiam with a few more pieces and we'll have a solid team next season.
I'm sure there was players on the football team that would have defended Malzahn to the last day.
What a player says is irrelevant…they have no idea what a good coach really is or what being prepared is unless they are experienced veterans that have gone through a series of coaches.
Dawkins is by all accounts a very nice person and a player’s coach. He’s also a poor coach whose teams only get worse during the season. It’s really not that his teams get worse…well coached teams and even mediocre teams improve as the season goes along but UCF stays stagnant which make it appears that it’s regressing.

Fluff garbage. I want all of these players gone with Dawkins. These players are all soft.
I don't need to answer this, but it did happen. He wasn't sick, he didn't want to play.
Hall is a gamer and obviously a good teammate. Good for him He’s one that has shown heart.
Completely different man. We are a football school and expectations are way higher for football. Gus was complete and total ass. Basketball expectations here are not as high. We haven't accomplished anything to have high basketball expectations. So we can't say that Johnny has been ass. He hasn't. He's just been average with a few asterisks.
Players defending coaches says alot. It shows they care about the coach and more than likely, enjoy playing for him. So it's a good sign when our star player defends our coach amidst our recent struggles. If we fire Dawkins now, we lose everybody and start from scratch. Just don't see us doing that with football and basketball at the same time. It's alot easier for a football school to have quick success after cleaning house.
