I won’t go far as saying something is wrong in the locker room. I think they have been getting by. Today, they couldn’t recover. What I sense is a lack of leadership. While Olivia, I think, leads off the court - she doesn’t have the emotional demeanor to lead on the court. Well, that means…no on the court leadership. I think that is where this team is suffering s bit.

Well, I mean little resentments or disagreements. Nothing big but just enough to create a riff in the comradaree of the team. Coach Walz has always had a roster of close teammates but maybe not so much with this group?

That's what I meant with locker room. That's why I'm thinking we're going to see several departures after the season. This group just hasn't gelled, even during a 7 game winning streak.

Thanks BooneCo_Card. The guys doing the broadcast didn't really get into that. The morning CJ failed to do so also. Anyway Ron King Louisville Central comes to mind although I have forgotten why he chose to play at FSU.

Ron King and teammate Otto Petty were snatched up by FSU Coach Hugh Durham. A lot of recruiting violations had them on probation, $$$ may have been involved. The Seminoles were ineligible for most of Dave Cowens' career. The FSU team that went to the NC had just come off probation that year.

There. That happened 50+ years ago. Plz don't ask what I did yesterday lol.

Andrews also had a drop before Lamar’s fumble. Just a brutal game for Andrews. Lamar was fine the fumble was on him but led the tying drive then Andrew’s drop an easy pass.

I think coach thought he had enough experienced leadership with Olivia, Nyla, Marissa and Jayda coming back. So he hit the freshmen ranks hard thinking he would be OK. I like this freshmen class and if he can keep it together and get quality bigs he could have a special team down the road. He needs to think like CPK and get top players who have that tough mentality in the mid majors to transfer in.

I don’t think Waltz is adjusting to the NIL-Transfer environment. Brought in one transfer and bunch of freshman. Don’t get it. Freshman are rarely ready unless they are elite. Roberts is really good but the rest aren’t ready. What was the plan?

They really don’t run a good offense. Zero player movement. They aren’t fun to watch.

I agree we really don’t have an alpha on this team someone who is tough and a clutch when things get tough. I have nothing against Olivia or Nyla I actually think they do their part. I think where we are really lacking is a dominant inside player. We need to start looking in the mid majors for someone who is a proven big who would like to step up into the P5.

Start looking now for next year and start courting them before other teams do. We are getting bigs that are 6’4” and 6’6” but aren’t dominant at this level. We have good guards and wings but that is not enough at this level.

You have to be kidding me? Andrew's again and the Ravens lose. This was not Lamar's fault. Once again, the only luck he has in the playoffs is bad luck.

Jeff needs to look at his staff. There not what he had a few years ago. Sscouting, intensity, running an offense, steals... Are not what they do now.

Can't blame Lamar for Andrew's fumble. See this is the shit that happens with the Ravens in the playoffs. Lamar will be blamed for again not being able to win the big playoff game.

It's such a shame because Lamar works hard and is dedicated, yet he can't find enough good luck in the playoffs.
