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. [Reply]

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

That's fair and I agree.
But we have seen it before. He can steer the ship. [Reply]
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. [Reply]

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

And shooting 2 free throws that Harris missed. [Reply]

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 [Reply]

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

But when he struggles, which he did last night - he's just ... not good.
Doesn't defend well, super lazy with the ball, etc. [Reply]
