The final score was not in our favor today. We'll return to Big 12 Conference action Thursday at BYU.

@Fergensteiin I can hear you on the defensive intensity piece for sure
English

@jakebilger I think there’s a decent chance he can turn the corner with this next class. I just have been thoroughly disappointed so far and know that the common OSU fan won’t buy in with the lack of defensive intensity that was shown
English

@Fergensteiin Yeah I can hear you on that for sure. I just think we got better and need to be positive on our outlook moving forward. I know the team is hard to watch at times but I’m tired of the damn curtains
English

@jakebilger Yeah I just contribute that to having much better talent and depth in the door. There was still a number of uncompetitive stinkers. I still think they underperformed the talent level.
Lutz will never get fan buy in with the defense that was displayed this season
English

@Fergensteiin Our wins and even competitive games against teams that were in the tournament greatly increased.
If you recall last year, almost all of our conference wins were against teams that were not very good.
We had 1 win against a tournament team last year, 6 this year.
English

@jakebilger Finished with 1 less Big 12 win year over year
And KenPom improved slightly (97th and 80th), but still 3rd to last in conference and worst defense
I would have expected a much bigger jump with the investment/talent infusion
Latrel Allmond is a potential program changer though
English

@Keleven80 I hear you, but give it an offseason and support. NO MORE CURTAIN!
English

@jakebilger I get it we cant fire coaches every year but personally just dont have hope in this program until the defense is at least addressed . I appreciate the points but oSu is a laughingstock defesively.
Philosophy
In game
Effort
Also throwing arms up and bitching about every call . 🤔

@Fergensteiin Fair points but people just need to realize we got better this year and it only takes one maybe two players to change a program. Hopefully they’re on the roster or signed but right now we’re in the process of searching for them.
English

@jakebilger We will see next season. Not retaining players year over year is a hard way to build
There are holes in this logic
Those coaches started at a different time where it took longer to build a roster
None of those coaches led a team to the worst defense in school history

Support Steve. Believe in Steve. @LutzSteve is the man for the job.

@ScottyMc71 Give him some time and resources, the defense was obviously bad but get a rim protector and stop over-helping and we’ll solve ALOT of issues
English

@jakebilger sorry man...guy can't coach defense and you can't win in the Big 12 if you dont play defense. His offense can win at any mid-major but it won't work with the elite coaches in this league.
English

@jakebilger I mean... if they fired Few then Oklahoma State could hire him... just saying

@Ostate_Daily I appreciate the optimism but this team is AWFUL to watch and is not close to meeting expectations and we can be honest about that. Wech however is awesome.

@OSUBaseball I am the biggest supporter typically but holy cow it’s time

@osu1994 17-18 to 20-14 in a harder Big 12 this year. Steve is a good coach Kevin, just trust!!!
English

@jakebilger 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 improvemenl to 14th best in conf. Our coach did some things that other coaches learn in their first year or two of coaching…,,……………junior high, if Steve were paid $150,000 per year I would agree with you.
English

Support Steve. This season has been very painful at times, but that’s 20 wins. Marked improvement fellas!!!!
