Team sucks

 

[Dr.DrakeRamoray]

So we thinking a NIT 1-2 seed or joint the college basketball crown in Vegas?

 

[HCFord1]

This feels northwesterny, but I don’t think this team has a second half like that in them anymore. Will just end up a season destroying double digit loss at home.

 

[tman87]

We are better than we are showing right now, but we are also just not great, either. Don't have the chess pieces overall. Next season sans Brice and Gary = scary IMO.

 

[HCFord1]

Defensive effort has been terrible so far as well. Giving up tons of open jumpers inside 3 point range.

Yeah, the defensive effort isn't good enough, especially since our offense has been awful for a while now.

The urgency isn't there. The nervousness is, however. But they don't even have nervous energy, they just aren't giving the same effort as earlier in the year.

 

[tman87]

Cut it to 9, so not over yet. Clawed back some those last few minutes.

 

[Cornicator]

That's effort was absolute dog shit for roughly 10 minutes in the first half.

The concern is that at some point Garcia will get going.

Obviously the goal isn’t to foul, but only having one personal foul in the first half while allowing Minnesota to shoot 50% basically just shows that they weren’t playing hard enough.

 

[DrinkItIn]

Meah, Berke, Morgan, Ullis, and Worster are absolutely zero threats to score. Outside defense/rebounding at times, they have been worthless.

Berke is 0-14 going back to last game.

 

[HCFord1]

Remember when we cut into the lead at the end of the first half by shooting a bunch of threes?

Oh yeah, that’s not what we fucking did. So glad we’re taking that approach to start the second half…

 

[tman87]

This one is almost done-for.

This loss about kills the tourney chances. But realistically, we have been bad for a while and don't deserve one anyway. Would likely get run out of the gym as usual when we make the tourney about once every 10 or 15 years.

 

[...TrueColors...]

This team is a fucking joke full of limp dick pussies.

Shame on me for thinking otherwise. A game you need against a terrible Minnesota team and you are just ass.

 

[Sous Chef]

These fucks don't deserve our support. If they don't give a shit why should we. These losers will get bounced in the first round of the NIT

 

[Husker_in_OK]

Too many times they look completely out of sync. No athleticism, no flow, and just a mess. I have no idea how they've even won 17 games ..

 

[stonesak]

Doc Sadler's teams were offensive juggernauts compared to what we are right now.

I know nothing but I tend to believe the rumors of internal locker room issues.

 

[Irv]

is there a more worthless P4 program in a major sport? Redefining ineptitude for a century.

 

[Irv]

Never good when your team is getting out-efforted by an infant on the same court.
