JCL with as many fouls as points, but he's also given up 20. At least. Yikes.
This should not have been a blow out, any decent team UM has played they have one by one point or went to OT.
We actually had one of the toughest schedules in the Big Ten so far
95% chance Tilmon comes if we retain Walker. If we don't that drops to near 0 too. Make no mistake he is all Walker's.
No idea on Frazier. Have to imagine Pickett and Da'monte stay.
RPI rankings are a joke at this point, fyi.

Adjustments terrible. Rebounding terrible. Coaching terrible. Defense terrible. Mike Thorne has no business playing in the big ten. Looking like it will be a 2011-esk start to conference play. And that team was 4x as talented as what we're sending out this year. Honestly convinced that 9/10 people who post on here could out coach Groce, myself included and that's not a joke.
I actually think TJL has some of the best fundamentals on the team regarding dribbling and passing. Defensive instincts better than Tate.
Don't want to see JG go, but if this team doesn't make the dance this season, I am not sure if anyone can really defend JG if he gets fired.
The product on the court is inexcusable. What a terrible program.
Any GOOD coach would be able to keep most of our recruits, and the ones that don't stay shouldn't have committed in the first place...
Didn't Tilmon say he was coming because of Walker, yep he did. And damonte was coming to play in his fathers footsteps. Would probably lose Frazier.
JCL is a good shooter. Can't believe our coach or Malcolm Hill not able to take advantage of that fact. Neither are very good at making others better, imo.
All Groce has to realize is that he must limit the following players' minutes: Tate (no threat on offense) JCL (perhaps the worst perimeter defender in the history of the program) And he must hand the reigns to Tejon. His job depends on it.

Groce is what he is...a rah-rah guy who was a good recruiter when he had a good product to sell at tOSU.
Yup, for some reason our incompetent coach won't play him though. Tate is just "too good"

That's a good point. Keeping Walker would be essential.

Finke is soft like Charmin...to steal a line from Kobe.
We definitely are not a decent team today.
