I just keep waiting for Trammel, Waters and Parrish to get their stroke back. It just kills us when all of them have struggled for long periods of time at the same time. Even average output and we'd be a scary team.

Someone mentioned this earlier, but this was a repeat of the Charleston game last year. We responded with our two best-played games of the season. Also, New Mexico is paying for its weak non-conference schedule. Yep. And, we get another 13 seed as well. History repeating itself ? |

SDSU is like the responsible citizen who is constantly contributing to the tax pool. The rest of the MW are lazy welfare recipients who never deposit and only withdraw. Seriously dude ? Prior to last year we hadn't done squat in the Tourney since 2016. The MW is improving. Coaching and talent wise. Root for your damned Conference. You and the rest of this Board need to get off your high horses about your perceived Aztec superiority We've lost six of seven to Boozy. That's not much to write home about. |

Also, New Mexico is paying for its weak non-conference schedule. But but but … they won the MWCT Championship!!! I do think those 4 games in 4 days might be coming back to bite them a little as well. In my many years of watching March Madness, typically, mid-pack Teams that win their Tourney don't do well in the NCAAT. There have been exceptions which I am sure someone will point out. (Thanks in advance). Normally they have shot their wad in the Conference Tourney. |

No one wants to run anyone out of town. Some have simply expressed their disappointment in his regular season performance. Three of the last four games, he has been nails. Lol, you must be new here. This is taken from the thread entitled “Thank you Lamont”. “I will always appreciate what you've meant to this program but I think it's time to move on and get some NIL$ somewhere else.” Sorry bro, telling someone that it’s time to move on, is running then off. Nice try at gas lighting though An even lamer attempt at gaslighting me. One poster does not a herd make. |

The 2019 team would have been, at worst, a 2 seed. And, I'm sorry, but getting teams like Syracuse (and their 2-3 zone where we played in Indianapolis which is Eastern Time Zone) or Creighton in first round games were tough draws. One year, I think it was 2016, we went 16-2 in conference but didn't get a NCAA bid because we had a couple bad early losses and the NCAA determined the MWC to be a one bid league. Since 2011 we have gone 12-9 which is far superior than what the rest of the conference has done. |

Even average output and we'd be a scary team. I would like to see Trammell shooting more and Parrish shooting less personally. Waters and Parrish should never dribble, both are a turnover waiting to happen if they do anything other than catch and shoot. If even one of the three can get hot, that would help immensely. |

I agree. I think Trammell has had a great season other than the first ~10 games or so. I think he's played a lot better than last year overall, making better decisions etc. Parrish has also played worse, but only because he hasn't been hitting shots. I think Parrish still makes pretty good decisions and plays good defense. We really need Waters to contribute and score when he's in. I love his midrange |

X 57 Trammel is 7-13 from 3 over the last four games. He and Saunders should keep shooting 3s while Parrish and Byrd should stop. |

Nice try at gas lighting though An even lamer attempt at gaslighting me. One poster does not a herd make. Uh, ok. That makes no sense but you do you. You argued that my statement asking if certain people on this board still wanted to run butler off the team was erroneous and they were merely criticizing him. I provided you with an exact quote from a poster stating that it was time for Lamont to move on. I notice you haven’t responded to this and instead try some lame metaphor that isn’t applicable. You are still trying to maintain that certain posters on this board didn’t tell Lamont to move on, that is the definition of gas lighting. Either provide proof for your original statement, admit I was correct or stfu |

every team we face is going to relish the idea that SDSU still thinks they are decent three point shooters and SDSU is not - the 3 point shot will be there all day so maybe guys move without the basketball and try to get open for a better % shot rather then shoot the 3
Saunders has got to get to the FT line more often he is at least a 95% FT shooter - and rarely puts rebounds in for second chance points -
What is DT is at his best is when he is passing the ball - he is a 5th year guy that should be making plays and yes take the 3 at the end of shot clock . But he keeps getting blown by the person he is supposed to be guarding - in the game yesterday coaches put in Bryd and or Waters to defend their player -

No one on this team can shoot, shoot more FT (when you figure out how to get the refs to call more fouls let us know), and DT is bad at defense and undersized. I’m not even pushing back on your post… though I disagree with about everything you say. Just please find some way to mix it up on this board. |

Thank you for this post. I really don’t understand most of Stan’s posts. DT was voted South Region MVP and led us to the Final Four last season. Yet Stan still brings up that we chose DT over the Lucas kid and we need taller guards..

Thank you for this post. I really don’t understand the long of most of Stan’s posts. DT was voted South Region MVP and led us to the Final Four last season. Yet Stan still brings up that we chose DT over the Lucas kid and we need taller guards.. I've been here a long time now (Oh my, I just checked and it's been over 10 years, where did the time go?). So, I'd like to explain most of Stan's posts to you. I'd really like to, but I'm not able to, so i won't. |

SDSU has a good basketball program. Just not consistently good in the Tourney. Certainly not enough the get those east of the Rockies to notice. Do S16 and better runs for a decade and they will get National respect. See Gonzaga. |

Byrd should be the future for the Aztecs. I haven’t seen a better defender in quite some time and once he get more time on the offensive end he will develop a game that will be a problem for other schools.
Looking forward to it!
Also, the other Miles has a huge upside. With experience the 2 Miles should work really well together. Byrd has vision and can spot the open bigs down low.

Do S16 and better runs for a decade and they will get National respect. See Gonzaga. You do understand seeding has a lot to do with how a team does in the tournament, right? Kansas got a 4 seed only to struggle and rely on a bad call to get past the first round and then get absolutely trounced by Gonzaga in the second. They got seeded that high because of their conference affiliation - they tied for 5th in conference with a 10-8 record, the same as YBU's. Again, you said we hadn't done anything in the tournament since 2016 and ignore the fact that one of the top 2-3 Aztec teams of all time didn't even get to play when they would have been no worse than a 2 seed. You also ignore where I point out that one year we didn't get in despite going 16-2 in conference only because the NCAA deemed the MWC to be a 1 bid league. We are 12-9 since 2011. That is a good record considering the lack of respect the MWC gets. Did you see the reasoning the committee gave for seeding MWC teams so poorly? They didn't respect the Q1 wins in conference. And now the MWC doubles down to make us play 2 more conference games which will hurt our chances to build a quality resume. |
