Give me back my Afta, heh heh
We gotta get healthy and stay that way.
You realize that's why people are down? Because we aren't playing to our potential.
There's no excuse for us to *try* to look like that every single night.
Minnesota isn't even top 100 in defense. We should rightly dominate an opponent like that.

Yeah, I’m in the same boat. Would love to watch live, but they play a lot better when I watch later.Um….damn
Guess I’ll tune out for the next game too!
I’ll take one for the team.
Great game, we looked like we were the team we all thought we were earlier in the season. Love the progression of Will, let's hope some deep pockets open wide enough to keep him around another year. Hate that in todays game we only get see the really good ones for a year or two, but it is what it is.
That was a fine perfomance to watch. A well-coached game. Defense was good. Offense had movement and screens and cross-action. All of that took advantage of the high-level skills of guys like KJ and Tomi and Will. We ran baseline out of bounds stuff to score, wow! Really nice job of coaching, after weeks of comatose effort from staff. Great!
Of course not. I can only assume he was referring to the MUCH IMPROVED: effort, focus, and execution. Did you not notice how much more locked in we were? (It was night and day.)
IF we shoot even kinda bad…but put forth that kind of effort we’ll be a tough out in the BTT/in March.

I had to chuckle when Morris, after the Riley spin move, referred to putting fabric softener in the rinse cycle.
Pretty sure he meant to speak of the spin cycle, but hey I could be wrong.

Agreed, he finds himself in the right place for a rebound and putback fairly often

lol, their last 2 wins was when I didn't have beers watching the game. So, I too decided to take one for the team with no beers during the game.
I guess I'll stick with it, ....... I don't want to jinks it!

How about having a pad under his girly arm sleeve? I think he was more banged up, than what was known. I hope for better health and wellness for these young men. Better Coaching from 10 million dollar staff, and leadership has got to be better and every game. I'm not going to get to jacked up by today, it was Minnesota.
Show me that against, UCLA, Michigan, Michigan st., DUKE, Purdue, etc. We shall see what coaching staff and this team is made of! I'm a hopeful and praying
! I want to love this team and staff, but have been disgusted by inconsistent performance. Sure hope it has been sickness and injuries. I'm thinking No, at this point. We shall see. If we go out and shoot 30- 3's, I will figuratively throw my TV, out the front door. We know what works for our personnel, do it each game. Stilled scored 93, in a B10 game with only 13- 3 point shots. Kudos and continued success.

, gotta man up sometimes and take one for team. Thank you! 
Tomi is a NBA bound 7 footer. Playing a team that really had no to one to match up with him. 60% Tomi is still effective. And with the fouls and match up issues Morez had there was no a good alternative on the bench. Tre's ceiling is probably good college basketball player with opportunity overseas for a few years. Brad had options. Ben was playing well and Will was on a heater, why play Tre even at 90%? And even if Brad is protecting his players from the stupid press, awesome. Better than throwing the players in front of that bus.
We had been doing that, then our key passing big got mono for basically a month. And we were terrible for a month. And people here wanted to fire the entire coaching staff.
Welcome to college fandom.
On the heels of being beaten by Rutgers, Nebraska and Northwestern on the road?
He's a fouling machine. He picked up his 2nd with 6 minutes to go in the first half and he s third fairly early in the second half. Foul trouble has been his undoing all year long.
