Too many missed threes and too many missed chances to put doubt on the Huskies minds while we are attempting to play defense. Much to learn and behaviors to change.

One player has half our points with 9 minutes left in the game.

We have way too great of a fanbase- way too many resources- and way too good of an AD for this product to be acceptable. Just absolutely no excuse for our program to be ok with this.. I appreciate what Brad has done for the program overall- but at this point-it's time to find someone that can take us to the next level.

At least we could have a mascot dressed for our games after a 17 or 18 year absence

He can't do anything until April, when he can try to beg people for the type of cash to bring in explosive athletes. That's the common theme vs final four caliber competition. We saw it vs Duke last year.

This team has the floor of a 10 seed and the ceiling of a 7 seed. It's meh. We won't be able to play with Purdue, Michigan, Michigan State and maaaybe UCLA. I'm not overly high on them.

The Texas Tech game gave us a bit of a false sense of that ceiling being Final Four, but they're in the same boat we are. Us not being able to stop them in the second half was an eye raising moment.

We over scheduled and our non conference record is going to scream it.

Well, it would if they actually hit them the concept is not the problem get players who can execute it is

Take a free trip to NYC again next year … Get blasted … Again …

I called this in the pre game thread … These guys were not even close to mentally ready …
Optimistically I was hoping they would come ready to play… but your track record again is proving to be pretty good!

These guys need a good post-game yelling

We just don’t have the athletes against teams like this, and this is what Brad wanted? Interesting to see what “tinkering” will be next ?

I know Tomi is trying and putting in effort, no questioning that, but he’s just way too casual on defense and rebounds. We need a DOG out there on the boards
