Delaware State with a 4 pt swing after a technical on NC Central for 6 players on the floor. NC Central comes drains a three and fouled with 5 seconds left switched to a 2 then shooter throws free throws off bank board no rim . Delaware St shoots free throws hits one. NC Central with 4 secs left drains a just past half court Three to tie. Crazy and delivering

Couple coaching blunders by Dusty at the end of the game: 

1) Fouling with 12 seconds left, up 3. Fouling up 3 is fine, when there's little time left. You don't do it with that much time remaining because it just extends the game, which is what the losing team wants. Michigan proceeded to miss a one and one, giving Nebraska a shot for the win. 

2) Having guys on the lane to rebound when Donaldson went to the line with 2.6 to go, up 1. If he misses either shot and you go for the rebound, you could get called for a foul. With Nebraska in the bonus, they walk to the other end and shoot free throws for a chance to tie or win. Donaldson made both so it was a non-issue. You don't need an offensive rebound if you're Michigan because you're ahead with 2 seconds left.

Per this chart before the Mich/Nebraska game, IU is under 1% chance of missing the BTT.dee21984f3b6b1258504fd70dc536a67.jpg

After Nebraska's loss, I believe that would even be slightly less.  Nebraska, meanwhile, was at 1.1% to miss the BTT prior to their loss to Michigan and that number would be higher now.  I could see Iowa missing the BTT as their remaining games are at Illinois, at Northwestern, and home to Michigan State.  At best I think they beat Northwestern.

Strange timing and they obviously didn't get the memo that the process shouldn't start until after the season or that's its mean to fire a coach before he gets 4 full seasons.

But he's immediately available to us.

Can’t lie, thought he would do very well there. His Utah St teams were some of the most fun watches in the country. Curious why that didn’t work.
