..we’re approaching the point where you have to start thinking “ Ah, yes. But no matter what you do, that seed will grow to be a peach tree. You may wish for an apple or an orange, but you will get a peach.”

Pope has to go with what he has and try to make the best of it. One thing he can do is shift minutes to guys who are stepping up.

On #3, once again another fine example of how sucky the refs are that cover west coast basketball. Missed a bunch of travels, don’t know how to call a flop vs an offensive foul vs a block, and let the game get away from them. From what I hear they are part of a group that calls games in conferences like the Pac12, WCC and MWC. I can’t help but think that when we go to the Big12 we’ll be able to bid a not very fond farewell those west coast refs. Hopefully it’s not jumping from the frying pan into the fire.
