It seems like they always struggle in the beginning. I believe this is because he has a tough system. Let's not forget that this is still a very young team. Most of the time, there are at least 2 to 3 players on the court that did not play college basketball last year (Jude, Hammond, Dyer, Warren, Smith). I trust that by mid to late season, Coach Walz will have this team performing as well or better than any other team in the nation. The UofL/UK matchup is always going to be a non-typical game due to the rivalry and emotion. Yes, it was frustrating to watch but it is not the end of the season.

It seems to familiar that we can not get our teams prepared for a big game when it really counts. How can we have a top ten team and play scared, tired, and then give up. I have never seen a more pitiful display of defense and flat footed offense. For Gosh sakes set a pick to free up your all american, push for loose balls, scream yell....something. Any Jeff was calm, while the rest of us were screaming at the tv. I dont mind losing to any team that beats us, but we must commit to playing the whole game! I love me so CARDS and will always but COME ON Girls Dont ever give up!

That would have openend up the outsied for the two sharpshooters on the team. Too much dribbling and no passing. One player dribbles around and the other four stand and watch. This game was extremely disappointing. Coach Walz, I never though I'd say this but you got outcoached. Coach and the team owe all the Card fans who showed up for the game an apology for the lackluster performance.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-54221909195276270222011-12-05T11:04:20.440-05:002011-12-05T11:04:20.440-05:00No intensity.

Can't be a top ten team if you let the refs take you out of a game. You gotta suck it up and keep playing hard. Hopefully, they suck it up and come out hard for each and every remaining game. Agree with both Jenny and David, very disappointed in the heart displayed and that this game was something of a fluke, this team is better than what they showed against UK. Still a fan, though, will support them always! GO CARDS!!!<br />Stark61Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
