Ankle.

Atrocious performance today from the program's two most important guys: Bill and Devon.

Devon still can’t lob the ball either. Och saved him on one but it’s becoming clear he’s a score first guard who isn’t a great passer.

Game was too big for Moss today. But honestly, it came down to free throws. I would like to see free throws shot before the media timeout. Dotson waited about eight minutes and so did Braun. They missed them both too. TV timeouts should not freeze out the shooter. But you can’t guarantee the Ball won’t go live again.

Bill Self on his radio interview: "It's unbelievable some of the mistakes we made late."

Not very often that one player can lose a game but Dotson managed to do that today.

My fault. But you know, Dotson should have done more with that last possession. This loss was on us. Glad this game happened in December and not March.

3/13 from 3 ...uggg.

Garrett's injury doomed us in more than one way.

If Jay Wright ever took the Okie State job, Bill might never win a game again. Wright and GIA both own Bill.

Bummer. This team has some weak spots that are going to be hard to overcome. Dotson is an excellent player but is a PG who isnt a great passer. And our most unguardable offensive weapon cant be played on offense in a close game due to being one of the worst FT shooters ever.

And we dont have any three point shooters who can be counted on to make a shot.

Another sloppy, mostly self-inflicted loss.

What bothers me is that this likely to be how we play against the first Top 5 seed this team faces in the tourney.

Name two starting PGs in the Self era that you would take after Devon Dotson. Nadiir Tharpe and.... who else? He is blessed with elite speed but there really isnt any skill that I would consider him to be that good at. Below average passer, turnover prone and below average three point shooter.

Seems like a great kid and is overall scoring well for us because he can just blow past 90% of the guys that try to cover him. But he has so many holes in his game that I cannot see what it is that he would do in an NBA game next season to warrant leaving after this season. Bummer that it's going to happen anyways; he might be a really good college player next season.

It worries me a bit as well. Nova is a pretty good team, but we should have won today. We just blew it at the end with a couple bonehead plays.

Y'all sound like a bunch o kentucky fans. Dotson will be fine, this team will be fine and will win a lot of games this year.

We blew it throughout the game with boneheaded play, missed bunnies and no one capable of taking and making threes or making free throws.

Yes, they will be "fine". They are "fine" now. "Fine" is making the Sweet Sixteen.

I agree they will win a lot of games this year. The Big 12 isnt that good and Self will once again have them earning a 1 or a 2 seed, then we'll be "surprised" when they lose to a 3-5 seed.

You're making Doyel look like a glass half full guy

True. I'm just pissed that we lost to Jay again.
