Anyone know what the technical foul on Arkansas was? Saw JP Pegues had made 5 free throws in a row on the play by play...

We have lost 4 out of 5 and missing Foster for 2 months................

PLAY BRONSON!!
Just stay with what we have. Not enough minutes for someone else now. No point in wasting a year for him.

Plenty of minutes can be found on a 4-5 team.... Some guys we are playing are not being productive, I say try Bronson instead...........

I tried to warn you.

This year is all about building to next year. Anything good this year is gravy.


Even you did not know we would struggle this bad ;)
I posted somewhere that on Dec 14th we’d have a losing record and the bandwagon would be half empty. And that was BEFORE all the injuries.

We will be fine in the socon. We will have a solid conf record and have as good a shot as any to be playing Mon night in AVL but this year will be TOUGH.

That is so classless with the dunks at the end. Hope they have a heartbreaking season. If I were on FU I would have had issues with that dunking at the end..... probably would have thrown hands


These teams are full of guys playing on like their 3rd or 4th team, and probably never go to class, it's to be expected that they act that way lol

Nope

It was 19, check the score

And that was the worst loss, all the others almost always single digits or wins (not counting San Diego State who is actually not P6)

It wasn’t the best of games but it wasn’t the worst of games either. Arkansas was by far the more athletic team with lots of length. Yeah we probably needed to hit a lot of 3s but you also need to make easy buckets down low too. Kudos to Whitt in the second half for at least driving to the bucket trying to make things happen. Williams really stepped up and played a nice game. Despite Vaanderwal’s bad shooting , he hustled nicely to get to some balls. Hien played a decent game.

I don’t know, I have a hard time figuring our team out. Just not a ton of fluidity this season. I think we will continue to improve but I think we will struggle with any team that has size down low. We just don’t have a very good interior defense - way too many easy buckets. Bowser is still a couple of years away. Our weak interior defense will be our Achilles heel.

As for Musselmann, biggest jerk coach out there.

Well I would say that 4-5 certainly is not the route to getting us to become the next Gonzaga, but hopefully a roatation/roster plan that makes sense is in place to make us good at some point in time this year or next...........
