And the way they scored them was the main problem. Audige just gave the points away, offensively and defensively.
First-half thread for NU vs Minnesota
- Thread starter lou v
- Start date
At least they fought back into the game, but imagine how much better off we’d be if the team valued the basketball vs the typical turnover-fest- we already have 10-11...
I just don’t get there not being a huge emphasis on shot selection and turnovers. If you aren’t one of the most talented teams in the conference and then combine that with not valuing possessions it‘s a recipe for disaster as we see over and over again
If the coaching staff can’t figure out that simple concept then we are doomed

19 pts and 11 turnovers lol. Maybe Minnesota steals + our turnovers can be > than our points scored this game. New records!!
So 1st half-
Score 25 points
12 turnovers
6 Minnesota steals
Wonder why we keep losing?
Sad thing is ball security isn’t exactly dependent on talent level. It’s just about playing smart

Chris, please stop freaking out and put these 5 guys out there AT THE SAME TIME.
Greer (point guard) Audige (scorer) Kopp (not as bad as Beran) Young (get him the ball) Nance (get him the ball)
Playing Buie at point is just giving the game away. He can't pass and he is a horrible defender. Makes everyone play worse.

Exactly. If Collins doesn't see that Buie is a turnover machine and hurting the team, he shouldn't be coaching. I would not be sad to not see Buie again this season.
Doubt if Boo will be here next season and should take a few guys with him Beran for one.
You don’t need 4 or 5 star talent to understand that you shouldn‘t throw the ball right to the other team when you are slowly bringing it up court.
This game would be an easy W if we valued the ball at all.
He can be a very dynamic scorer. Would be a valuable player if he can mature and make smarter decisions. Same for Audige
21 pts and 2 turnovers- been one of Boo’s best games. Taking the ball to the rim as well to get to the line.
Audige on the other hand has been not good this game.
Buie made up for many bonehead plays. But yeah, credit him with a strong second half.
Young had some great hustle plays and led by example. He and the rest of the team seemed to want this one more than the Gophers. Great to see after a flat effort vs. Wisconsin.
All of it was warranted and the majority was true, but still, reading this thread for the first time after the game is over was pretty funny.
