Meeee too. Just wish I could’ve gotten a thumbs down gif. Oh well…the guy is a mystery wrapped in a puzzle and then wrapped in an enigma….

I forgot I responded to that thread. I was in a pretty hopeless mode. Just reminds me how truly awful our shooting was during that stretch of games. We couldn't hit layups, threes or FTs for a few games. It felt like we might shoot 50% from the line for awhile there.

They really showed heart down the stretch, because the 3 pt shooting never got a whole lot better.

Today was a good example of games we have had where we couldn't do anything right, couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with the bass fiddle, and turned the ball over constantly. But despite that, this bunch has kept on. but fighting and fighting and coming out a winner again. Every time it looked really bad, we returned to our defense to put us back in the game. You have to admire that.

The thing to remember about that stretch of games is the schedule was absolutely brutal. I looked at the schedule in late December and figured 2-6 wouldn’t be a bad result & 3-5 would mean we had a hell of a team. So I managed to not get too down on them. Really, I think we were reasonably competitive in all but 1 or 2 of those games. The loss to Georgia & the blowout vs Tennessee (or was it Bama) were the only 2 bad games.

The best username & schtick I've ever suggested for this board & certainly the best username since SPS moved to On3:

Cue the New User named Thumbs Down who makes like ClintoninHelen & comments Thumbs Down on everyone just to get Likes.

That said, it doesn't mean that I don't like my other suggestions either (MagnificentBastard -- still waiting on you to bring back the Rommel icon & Mr. Cook -- yeah, I'm responsible for the name).
