Brad please play this lineup as much as possible second half
What?Freshman. Maybe this board can coach after all
Frazier is clearly not right. If he can’t see to the point where he can’t shoot, he needs to stop shooting.
Incredibly lucky to be down just 4. All is not lost yet but rebounding must improve and turnovers go away.
I’m glad we’re only down four with how we’ve played, but I feel like I say that every game lately.
Glad you didn’t bench him before halftime
Play the freshman. Rebound. Take care of the basketball.
We showed some life finally, I have faith, but we have to make shots. Let’s keep fighting

Reduce turnovers, rebound the ball, keep the freshman in to start the second half.
Nice shot Mr. Fraizer right before the half. We are getting slaughtered on the glass on both ends of the court! The bench has saved us in the first half with some much needed scoring. This is five lackluster halves in a row in the NCAA tournament. If we play our best basketball, look out!!!! We just haven't played that since the opening round of last year's NCAA tournament. The glass half full, we are overdue to play real Fighting Illini basketball. I-L-L....I-N-I!!!!
I want this lineup coming out of the break. Goode and RJ add length and shooting
What's BU going to do for adjustments?
Anyways, won't be seeing the 2nd half. 10 mi. run. Hopefully when I come back the result is what we all want.

You can pick whoever you want to sit, but everything changed when Melendez and Goode hit the floor.
Only down 4 when we are lucky not to be down double digits. We have got to come out to start the second half with fire. Can't afford to get down by double digits anymore.
Do fake rallys count in the first half? Asking for a friend. COME ON BOYS!!
Maybe that was a secret strategy by BU
We are going to effing win this game. We're the better team out there, we've had the better shot selection, we can limit them on the boards when Kofi is out there. We just need to stop turning the ball over and keep up the movement off the ball on offense. That's it. We do that we will win this game.
How about that ! A rational non homer response. Slow mo replay shows excellent shooting form straight up elevation and he gets run into. No problem with that foul
That earlier rebound where the Houston player crumpled to the floor is one where the flop warning SHOULD have been issued as opposed to some of the legit times when a player ended up on the floor after getting trucked. yesterday. UH player looked stupid on that one. Refs been pretty inconsistent this tourney with several plays yesterday clearly being missed on several replays
I think it would be good to turn this into a track meet. In a track meet, we can outshoot them, and it will neutralize some of their rebounding ability.
Will also help if we put some effort into blocking out and rebounding, instead of just standing there and hoping the ball falls into our hands.

I think the freshmen have really caught onto the culture and are really playing strong D now. That’s why I think they can carry the mantle.
