“POSSIBLE?” You think? 4 out of 5 seasons in the NCAAs, sans the Covid year and this is “the worst you’ve seen since the Hobbs era!” Overreact much do we? Someone needs to go for a walk and get some fresh air!! Just stay away from the roads. We wouldn’t want you to wander into traffic!
I thought he was Oates. It's actually Oats. I've been spelling it wrong since he's been here. That's on me. But his job performance this season has caused me to really question things. We are FAR too talented a team to be getting pasted as often as we are
A year ago you only knew three of the current 13 players, and only one of the current four coaches.
I figured we had just reloaded with equally good guys this season
Better in some areas.
I’m curious as to what folks see next year being like. We lose our top 3 scorers, top 3 rebounders and top 3 assist givers. Or at least they are all seniors (Sears, Nelson, Pringle and Estrada). Maybe some come back for a Covid year? We have a better recruit class coming in from what I’ve seen, so that’s a positive. But I’m interested to hear what folks think next year could look like. Will it be a successful season if we just make it to the dance? I would like to see a good run here and there in the dance.
You’ll have to wait until the fall for a more fair assessment to be honest. How many on current roster will transfer out is another question to consider.
Estrada is the only one without a year of eligibility remaining.
I believe the clock has run out on the free year of eligibility due to the pandemic. This school year was the last for that, if I am calculating correctly
If I'm not mistaken, high school kids graduating in 2020 are also included whic6h would make it 2026.

Oats mentioned this in the Arkansas post game I believe. Sounds like he expects some of those seniors to come back.
Probably right. But what happened to this team. I cant figure. I saw a team that just buried people with 3s. And now its driving tobasket.
Down goes Frazier!
We peaked in January after the A&M game. Guards are tired and we have had roster limitations inside all season. Only thing I wish Oats would do is give guys like Cosby more PT and learn how to take timeouts when momentum is shifting.
But put em at 3line and fire away
? I'm confused. Oats has stated that this team is fun to coach this year, and honestly, it's not the players... it's more of not having enough buyin... I think these guys learned a lesson about not playing defense... we'll find out in tournament.
Davin Cosby has showed potential. We know he can shoot on offense. That's not the issue. Nate Oats on Cobsy after Ole miss game:
He is coachable. Just need another season and he'll figure it out on defense. He isn't consistent on defense yet. That's why you're not seeing him much on court.
