THANK YOU FOR (Thursday’s Journal article) “Players were the real criminals in scandal”. Perfect and fitting photo of Alex Bregman who benefited greatly! Now one of the biggest home run hitters in baseball? Most profession­al baseball players can do that if they know what pitch is coming. … Nice job on exposing our local hero! Tainted forever! — MR

19 3-POINTERS (an astounding 57 points) given up to Colorado State in a pathetic 105-72 loss? Definitely not a Bob King defensive performanc­e. He wouldn’t have believed it. No intensity whatsoever on this team. We certainly miss King’s yelling, Norm Ellenberge­r’s foot stomping and Steve Alford’s fist shaking. Paul Weir just stands and watches. I actually liked the old Weir who used to “beat himself up” after losses. Now it’s more like “whatever.” It’s 3 (or 4) days in Las Vegas once again. This soft team might last no more than one game before they’re headed back home. — Lobo Statistici­an

YES MR. ROGERS, it’s all on you. That’s why you make the big bucks. Discipline, Discipline, Discipline and guidance is on you. That’s what these young men needed, and maybe you’d have your full team. What a waste of young talent and disappoint­ment to the Lobo loyal fans! — Map

I BELIEVE GEOFF GRAMMER … along with Coach Weir were wrong when they said they have found a point guard in JaQuan Lyle. Lyle has over 20 turnovers in his last four games. McGee looks to be the only point guard. How about Weir letting him out of his doghouse and for the good of the team and letting him play? — SS
