You're missing my point. I'm not saying we should be perfect. I'm just saying be realistic. How many games would you say we lost this season that we shouldn't have? I'd say 4. UCLA was probably favored in all of their games and lost 3 of them. The numbers are pretty close, 4 to 3, when you look at that way. So if losing games you aren't supposed to is the definition of inconsistent then UCLA is inconsistent too.
Then consider how many games we won where were not favored. Iād say 7. If we won 7 werenāt supposed and lost 4 that we were supposed to win, then Iād say that was successful, or consistent.
Yes I do drink the green kool aid. But I also have issues Iād like to see resolved too. I just feel āinconsistentā is a very general term that just about every coach uses it in regards to their team. I donāt think it clearly explains what issues people have in the anti-Lutz crowd.
Confused me here. You confess that you thought the season was lost before it began, yet it ended up a success, So how is that inconsistent? No arguments about making the last loss any easier to take. It blows and Iām pissed about it too.
First, you ask how this team is inconsistent, and youāve gotten a good 4 or 5 legit responses, but every time you try to spin it to make our team seem consistent. Once again, Iām not complaining about wins and loses but how they accumulate or occur, largely the losses. Your way of saying we were equal in consistency with UCLA doesnāt make any sense. Basically, dependent upon our level of talent, as long as we balanced the games we win that we shouldnāt vs. the games we lose that we shouldnāt, you would consider the season consistent, whether 3-28, 15-17, or whatever.
Do you believe we should have lost to Monmouth? I doubt it. That would be one moment of inconsistency. When we shoot an abominable % against Richmond for HC after playing pretty well, thatās inconsistent.
Since inconsistent is too general for you how about this phrase, āWe constantly play to the level of talent on the other team.ā The fact that we do this means we are up and down considerably from game to game, thus inconsistent in our performance.

I have no idea where you extracted that from, the only reason I put what I said at the end of my first response is b/c lately if you don't assert your position at the end of a thread that could be deemed negative, people want to cry fair-weather fan at you and what not.
