Keegan should of shot the last shot just like Davison should of taken the last shot for Wisky instead of passing it 

Maybe the Murray brothers could make a friggin’ free throw.

It is Illinois who is the #1 seed now.  Back to back, worse possible draw we could ever have.  Like I said, we can’t catch a break.  We matchup poorly against both teams!

Redemption tour in the Big 1.o tourney, let's get it!

Michigan -> Illinois -> Rutger -> Wiscy

Lol. Terrible draw. You get what you deserve, I suppose. Whoever was responsible for game 1 Michigan gameplan, better not touch game 2 game plan as we were utterly out played, coached , and strategized in game 1.

The game plan of us chasing shooters all over the court wasn't a good one? Water will find its level, there is no way they'll shoot 100% from deep on WIDE OPEN looks again. Although, I'd advise against testing that theory.

Yeah, was going to say, their backup bigs were a combined like 4/4 from 3, Dickinson had maybe his best day from 3…no guarantee they shoot poorly to compensate this time. But if you want a little optimism, you can start there, and also, by rough stats profile, UM is a bit like PU, who IU outscored by a point in two games combined this year: great, large 5, very good offense, suspect defense.

I always find it amusing when I hear people say "I don't want to be like UK." They had a 5-star point guard de-commit this weekend. No matter, they have another one coming in. Think of what a mess this board would be if Hood-Schifino dropped us right now. We get a 5 star recruit and it's a huge deal; we never get more than one in a class, meanwhile UK practically recycles 5-star recruits and doesn't even have to put much effort into getting them. 

 

But yeah, we don't want to be like UK. It's much more fun to recruit in the 100-150 range and then wonder why we don't win more. 

While we are really getting off the subject of bracketology, I will say that Cal has started to wear his welcome very thin at UK.  Honestly, if you would have told me that after 12 seasons that Cal would have one title at UK I wouldn't have believed you.  They typically have the top class in the nation and when they don't, they are in the team photo.  Tubby Smith got driven out of Kentucky because he only won one title in ten years.

My expectation is that Cal will be coaching in the NBA again very shortly.

And they don't often play solid games back-to-back.  Their longest winning streak all year was three games.  Their current record for games following a win is 5-11 and their last nine games have been alternate wins and losses.

He's Hood-Schifino's teammate.

My grandma would've loved the next few weeks she always filled out a bracket and every Monday after I got done with work I would read her the AP poll.

If someone tells you this week it’s hard to beat a team 3 times in the same year show them this

Holtmann reported to be on the hot seat.  I think we’d all take his record at OSU with a good recruiting class coming in.

Wisconsin f’d us again. I’d love to have had another shot at them. We played them 80 min total and led about 75min of it.  
 

[Uspshoosier 45,608]

2 bids up for grabs tonight and espn decides to put them on at the same time instead of staggering them.   
Furman/Chattanooga for the SoCon.   Chattanooga can do some damage if they make it in.   
Louisiana/Georgia St for the Sun Belt

Holtmann didn’t want the fishbowl but guess he got the fishbowl

I’d say so. He’s made the tourney every year (minus 2020 when they would’ve made it) , but been bounced a little early. 
 

If that gets him on the hot seat at O$U they have some pretty high expectations for a football school. 

[woodenshoemanHoosierfan 6,215]

Agreed. Wish they'd take them out of the game completely. 

So let offensive players just run over the defense?
