I think reality has set in. We knew we had to play well in order to foster those hopes. We played OK against Oregon State, and we just got dominated by Oregon. It hurt to play like that. That's what happens when you are not a good team. Our hopes were higher, but what has happened was not unexpected.

I thought it should have come sooner. I'm glad it came when it did.

We have not shown the improvement I expected.

We have not contained point guards at all.
