Terrible hot take.What a horrible performance. This team has bottom level talent. Certainly not A10 level. Just another bs year of mediocre play. This team should have never left the CAA.

Maybe when the losing streak is at 4 games? 5? 6?Don’t like Okojie as a starter…yet
Well, I really wouldn't feel that bad about things if we had somehow pulled out the vcu game. The home loss is what kills you in this league. You're gonna take your lumps on the road. All of this sucks after the start to the season that we had, but we do have to have a little bit of patience here. Time to go back to the drawing board including trying to jumpstart the offense in the beginning of the game. Might need to start generating more offense from the defensive end.Let’s talk about the game today. Smith center is a house of horrors for our program
Turnovers.
Ball rolling off the rim 150 times during our layups
Defensive lapses
shot selection at times
I saw enough after our 5th turnover in a row to turn it off. Once again we didn’t start the game with urgency and quickly found ourselves down big. We let our offensive woes go into defense.
By the time we figured things out we had to play nearly perfect. That was shot to hell with a few travel calls and turnovers (5 times in a row).
The first half was one of the worst halves I’ve seen mason play in quite a few years. It’s unacceptable quite frankly. The wheels have started to come off. We forgot how to shoot 3s, we forget how to play defense and we don’t always play a solid offensive scheme with ball movement screens and cuts. Everyone knows what Hall and Maddox will do and as soon as those guys move the ball is swatted.
I think I need to take a step back from expectations of a top 4 team. We aren’t playing like it and playing much more like a middle of the road team. It’s very disappointing especially when you lose to 3 local rivals in a week. Whatever.
Agreed. And I’m definitely all in on being patient, more just venting frustration. We just need to figure out how to adjust and fast. Not like the next team isn’t going to be ready to exploit our weaknesses.Well, I really wouldn't feel that bad about things if we had somehow pulled out the vcu game.

Something has to change, because trotting out the same 5 starters for the first 7 minutes of every game isn't working. Okojie isn't a panacea for all of our ills, but we need some kind of spark to get this offense going.Don’t like Okojie as a starter…yet
Don’t disagree, maybe green/gold larranaga style to send a message and see what happens.Something has to change, because trotting out the same 5 starters for the first 7 minutes of every game isn't working.

Hall's great start the first half of the season masked a lot of our deficiencies, and we are being exposed now that teams are justifiably focusing on him.
Patience is probably what I have the least of when it comes to George Mason basketball.All of this sucks after the start to the season that we had, but we do have to have a little bit of patience here.
Yeah we’ve all been plenty patient.Patience is probably what I have the least of when it comes to George Mason basketball.
Mason fans have been waiting years and years for a good season. How much longer do we have to wait?
This. And to repeat one of your points, we play one on one. No passing, movement, cuts.Let’s talk about the game today. Smith center is a house of horrors for our program

Yes. How many years, now decades, and miscellaneous coaches can you take without pulling your hair out!Patience is probably what I have the least of when it comes to George Mason basketball.
I suspect much like Tony has said, the book is out on Mason. It’s league play and everyone knows what Mason is going to try to do.This. And to repeat one of your points, we play one on one. No passing, movement, cuts.
Who gets the blame for that? Somebody has to. Coaches? Players not doing what the coaches told them to do?
