Nice senior leadership from Boswell. NOT.

As I said before, this performance does not give me hope for making the second weekend. I don’t see it. Especially with the in-game management from the coaches, the lack of killer instinct, the pee poor rebounding, and the inability to lock down opposing guards. Recipe for disappointment.

The first game opponent definitely has a scouting report to adhere to after today.

No worries Brad and company will explain it all away everyone else's fault, playing for the NCAA blah blah....they aren't fooling me the way this team is playing right now they have a sweet 16 ceiling

Let's hope the referees we draw in the NCAAT are better than the ones the BigTen have...

Six straight OT losses
People may say there is randomness to OT W/L records, but I'm not buying that with this team. Everyone knew this was an L as soon as it went to OT. If we have an OT game in the tournament, they will lose again.

That missed by about a half inch.
Also, I hope Nick Boyd gets a rash and loose stools. What a dbag.
Him and Blackwell's flopping is next level ridiculous.

Here we go again …

9-31 from 3 … Yet we just KEEP CHUCKING …

Davis and Mirk the ONLY guys to make more than one three …

We can’t guard anyone … Give up 70 to these Wisco guards … Bam lockdown defender ??? GMAFB … Horrible !!!!!

THEY HAVE TWO GUYS and we let them TORCH US !!!!!! AGAIN !!!!!! NO ADJUSTMENTS from Game 1 !!!!!!!!!

OUTREBOUNDED by these dudes ?????? CANNOT HAPPEN !!!!

I’ll let the tourney play out … And I hope we absolutely kill it but IMO it’s Second weekend or there needs to be serious discussions about the future and whether that includes Brad or not … 1 for 9 on second weekends just simply doesn’t cut it at this program …

This end of season/down the stretch performance has been flat out UNACCEPTABLE !!!!!!!!
💯

Beat us on the boards?
I think that is our main problem. We’ve got two 7 footers and they both would rather shoot threes. Sometimes you just need to get underneath and rebpund! Let the guards shoot. If you aren’t willing to rebound get someone who will. I love this team and they are fun to watch no doubt but it’s crunch time now!

Keaton is prime example of how important it is to start strong in your freshman year and not vice versa. Get your name thrown around in the lottery early and youll just stick around mocks.

He ain't a top 10 pick

How do we not know to attack the basket when we've got size mismatches all over the court? Or a 15-point lead? Or mismatches with a 15-point lead?

This is not advanced basketball stuff, you can see it coming a mile away, and it is 100% how we're gonna get bounced from the tourney.
It’s because our”top rated offense” philosophy is to have our bigs play away from the basket. That might not be so bad if we had guards who could score consistently down low.

I don't buy the argument the radio crew was making that this may be a blessing in disguise because we can rest. We just had a week off and we get this effort. Another week off isn't going to suddenly make this team tough enough to make a run. We peaked in January. We've lost 5 of last 9, that doesn't scream deep tournament run. It may end up a 14 over 3 seed upset.
