It's been said to death every game this season, but I just can't imagine what this team would look like if Crean was still the coach. No size, no depth, no shooters, no effort, no senior leadership, and no personal accountability. 

I'd like to see more from Archie getting on them and adapting his scheme to what he has to work with, but I think some guys can already see the writing on the wall as to their future with this team. From what I can tell so far, I think Archie actually dislikes most of this team.

Watching this game makes me angry about not only our basketball team, but our football team, too. How's that, you ask? Glad you did. When I was in school (late '80s-early '90s), Wisconsin couldn't beat us. In fact, I think we went something like 18 years or so without losing to Bucky. But the tide has turned -- and in a big way. Now, we can't beat them. I think we're something like 2-16 against them in our past 18 games (don't quote me, though). ... And that brings me to football. We're stuck in the same division with Penn State, Ohio State and Michigan. And I think since 1960 or so, we have exactly four victories combined against those teams. Why is that? Why can't we beat them? Instead of lamenting that we're stuck in their division, let's beat 'em. Obviously we can't win 10 out of 10 against them. But we should be able to beat them three out of every 10 times. Wisconsin found a way to not only beat us in hoops, but dominate us. There's no reason, IMO, why we can't find a way to beat PSU, Michigan and OSU in football every now and then.
