haven't bought in?

Well, it's clear Coach has just about had it with these guys. He apparently was quite critical of them in front of all the former players at the dinner last weekend, and now he says it's clear the players haven't totally bought into playing the way they have to to win.
And he starts not one, but two backups today against Baylor. Clearly they still ain't buying it (allowing 50 points in the second half...a Bill Self team?) I don't want to say he's lost this team, but it certainly appears at least a couple of key players aren't on board.
I have been thinking the lack of depth and fatigue were the biggest issues, but now it appears it's more than that. Maybe I am being too harsh, but I don't recall a Self team being this poor at all the intangibles that mean so much to victories. This team is not the most talented...but it has way too many possessions where the energy and smarts are simply not there.

Agree for the most part. There are some guys who are still playing “their” way and not HCBS’s way. But I couldn’t watch today and fault the effort. Svi could not see. He was playing with one eye. Yes, he sucked against TCU, but I am sure we all figured that was an anomaly. Add to that Malik was certain today his 3 ball was “on” (2/10) and we see the result. But Vick and Newman had the same number of rebounds Doke had. So I’m not sure “want to” was the only answer today. My question would be....20 points in the first half for a HCBS team?
