I am in AH.  I have been to a lot of games since the mid 80s.  I have never seen this crowd like this.  It’s about to get uglier than the product on the court. 

Did I catch some boos off one of the early turnovers? Like, before the under-16 even.

What exactly did Leal do there?

Do you think there is merit to the idea the fans are putting an unusual amount of pressure on players / being so loudly negative that they’re choking/scared? I struggle to buy that but these guys look like they’re afraid of the crowd almost.

He was within eyeshot of Oglesby. He's been total @** forever.

He was in the presence of Humrichous

I took a Valium so I can deal with the game.

Yes you did.  That’s what made me log on.  I have never seen it that early.  It’s more than a small cluster.  I don’t know how it came across tv but it lasted.

Except we've seen them play the same way in the most sterile of away and neutral venues

Does any option exist that we could ask for a running clock?

It was hard to miss. It was loud enough on TV for me to wonder if that was a mic placement thing, but it appears not.

12 minutes in and we're down 21. 

Good lord ... 

[Hoosier987]

Carlyle is awful. Dude gets a bag in the offseason and doesn’t do anything right 

[Jeff Flabjohns]

Crowd should be boo-ing. 

[LamarCheeks]

Of course he makes it from 27 feet. 

[LIHoosier]

The roof might blow off if we ever get a rebound

They should be. They’re being paid to produce.

[Jeff Flabjohns]

43-20 hahahahah.
 

Gutless, cowards. I want the whole roster refreshed next year. Clean house 

[Hoosier DaDa]

Wow just wow :(

They pretty much played the same in a glorified HS gym in the Bahamas. I think they’re just under coached, unorganized, and unmotivated.
