Team had a winning season even if they lose out the rest of the way. Hopefully a win over Minny to finish 10-10 in league:

At least two or three times a game, McConnell correctly identifies that the team needs a basket ... and he decides to take the game over by himself. The only problem is he is a terrible offensive basketball player and probably the least equipped player on the team to play 1 on 5 while kamikazeing to the basket. Is it too much to ask for Pike to tell him to stop doing that?

The upper classmen on this team have been a huge let down the last 5 games. Paul, Cliff, and Caleb are giving us next to nothing on offense.


Michigan has one upperclassmen that outplayed our 3. And their young kids were ready and ours weren’t. And this is more of a me thing cause I’m superstitious but when was the last blackout announced game we’ve won hahah. Illini last year I think? Anyway, I know I know jerseys don’t matter.

michigan playing much harder than we are. contesting every pass on offense ; flying to offensive rebounds and beating is to lose balls

Pathetic, uninspired effort by everyone. Such lofty expectations on the heap now. Team lacks leadership. Caleb regressed, Paul whines constantly and Cam ridiculously streaky. Season torched. Very depressed.

Pikell needs to get laced into this was beyond a horrible coaching job no offense his substitution pattern just fckn suck clueless
How does Palmquist play almost the whole second half and how do you take Paul out and leave Palm in
Yes if only he hadn’t taken the starters out for a couple minutes in the first half we wouldn’t have FORTY TWO ******* POINTS FOR THE WHOLE GAME

Recruiting. It's coming. We play hard, but we are limited from a talent perspective.

Just looking at random guys from Michigan's team, they have a bunch of four and five star talent. You see it on the court.

Hard to run an offense without any offensive talent but you know that
you can still run action and sets. We just have either 4 guys standing around the perimeter ball watching or 3 guys standing around the perimeter watching and then just a simple pick and roll.

I understand we're a defensive program but you can be a defensive program but still run some offense

Great. Going to fall to 9-8, same as Illinois and Iowa, the two teams we cannot end up in a tie with.
We are heading for 9th seed, not 3rd or 4th.
