let's not down play how hard it will be to make the tourney this year. If we don't learn to be tougher on defense the big ten will be tough to get wins. If we make the tourney imo we will have improved significantly because the way we are playing we won't make it. We are playing worse then the way we were at the end of last year and we barely got in. We got a higher seed than deserved because of how we played early in the season. It will be no cake walk from where we are sitting now trust me

We have a trail of cupcakes heading to conference play except notre dame. I hope crean don't go preaching how improved we are without us being tested. He was happy after st jhons when we were not good and sounded like he thought we improved vs Alcorn st when it was obvious we didn't. We will learn nothing till big ten. I am not ruling out losing two games yet either

it's hitting the fan! I think it could be good to let the kids get used to the idea of not playing for crean and to let the entire coaching community know we will be looking for a head coach for sure. What are some of the drawbacks?

I have been focusing my complaints to rebounding and the putrid defense but we are a offensive team and as big of problem as any is not to score a point 8 plus minutes into a half? The game was a blurr to me but that is a big deal also and there is no excuse for that

If we had looked good all year until last night this wouldn't be a big deal. The problem is we have looked terrible against medium competition and cupcakes. This loss by itself was expected but to pile on the fact we have the same issues game in and game out that is a problem. I seen a poster say something about hanner last year and he was shot down by another poster saying hanner was terrible all the time. I agree but no way hanner played as many minutes as bryant and didn't get a single rebound and that could be a big difference. It is very likely this team is worse than last year and it is from lack of defense and rebounding. I don't know just at work thinking to much lol

our front line had 3 total rebounds and that was by 1 of them. We don't win this game in the hall or anywhere with that kind of performance.

No way. If he misses the dance this season he better be gone I couldn't handle waiting till the end of next season

Going to bed to sleep off this loss. Won't be sad if crean is fired when I wake up

Fisch is basically begging the fans to show up Saturday. I am guessing it won't be a big crowd

it was a joke cause crean used that at the end of the season

Anybody know how many minutes bryant played? Zero rebounds is a miracle maybe the most amazing accomplishment I have seen. Unbelievable

thanks I was going to say we are not a top 30 to 40. We will miss the tourney guaranteed if we don't play defense. And Thomas bryant with zero rebounds should be benched for Priller till big ten

not just tonight. Alcorn st all of Maui. Everything. But I agree 100 with you. Crean is bad most of us have known that for a long time but this team is making him look terrible

I can't decide how long they will let this continue

Confirmation that we are not good. We brought our Maui game back to btown for Alcorn st and took it to duke. We aren't good and I am not sure we can fix the problems fast enough

Under a minute no msb

If crean don't get these kids to play d I have zero doubt he will be fired before the end of season

I would look distraught to if I went to this massacre.

heck yes undoubtedly. At least till the last 10 games

we should go on a winning streak till the 19th

Bet crean dodges radio post game.

I almost feel like something is happening we don't know about. I don't know but something don't look right

kind of. But this entire situation is sad. Big ten season will be rough if we show up like this

there is something mentally wrong with this team

yes with a little less talent. But that was bad
