So we're K State now.

No matter how much talent you have around them, they put a ceiling on what a team can achieve.

I know we're all upset over a pretty bad loss.

But the ceiling for Dajuan Harris being the point guard was set 3 years ago. And it ends in confetti.

I don't think it's Dajuan that's the problem. I don't think it's KJ. I don't think it's Hunter or any one guy.

I think it's the nature of college sports now. You pull together a bunch of square pegs and hope that you can fit them into the round holes. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't.

In the "old days and old ways" you spent time shaping guys into round pegs.

The problem from my perspective is that he's still the same guy he was 3 years ago and we just don't have 3 other guards that can score at a rate that hides his deficiencies there.

Also, I think his defense is worse and has gotten worse each year.

I dont think K State can even play with UH or ISU. KU can.

That's fair and I agree.

But we have seen it before. He can steer the ship.

Yes, but I think the real story of 2022 turned out to be that we had 3 NBA wings around Harris.

We used to talk about that team not having much NBA talent, but it turned out that we massively underrated Agbaji, Braun, and Wilson.

I still haven't figured out how we lost. Was watching it at the casino and we were up 6 with 19 seconds left. Went to get a drink. Come back and it's tied.

I'm going to be real with you. I watched it and still haven't figured it out.

And shooting 2 free throws that Harris missed.

AJ Storr is just so bad. As I've been saying all year. Guy does nothing when he isn't scoring and he isn't even good at that.

Give Passmore all of his minutes. Maybe Passmore can at least improve.

KJ playing 30+ minutes a game instead of a guy who is clearly ending up in the draft lottery in June feels like a problem to me

I can't really hate on the guy. Really the only guy that does anything. Makes tough shots. This team would be even more ****ed than it is without him.

But when he struggles, which he did last night - he's just ... not good.

Doesn't defend well, super lazy with the ball, etc.
