I don’t think I’ve ever hated a teams attitude and just overall play as much as I dislike this team right now. Wisconsin has no business winning tonight. We are awful on offense. I’m not going to call anyone out, so I won’t. JY is the only reason we’re even in these games
Hate this team
- Thread starter biazza38
- Start date
JY and Myles were the only ones tonight to bring anything. Maybe Caleb in the first half.
Agree JY is the only one that plays hard. The rest of them are straight up trash.
Play slightly better than dogshit and we win
That’s not true . Myles, cliff and Caleb had some solid spurts tonight
If this team could make a shot they win. 3 one and ones missed. Paul missed multiple very wide open 3s. Harper couldn’t hit a shot. Mathis was MIA. Geo missed some serious bunnies. Caleb airballs.
if they played below average on offense today instead of putrid, they probably win by 10 or more
cannot disagree. Wisconsin played like garbage much of the night. They really did nothing but stick with it and hit a couple basket. They defended RU just like the last 5 opponents did and it worked.
honestly this team right now is rivaling some bad Jordan teams in how I want to tune out
the bar is so low right now that they are giving credit for a few successful plays....newsflash, nothing was good tonight and no player was. All of them threw up terrible shots
Really? Do you even know why we lost today? Both teams played horribly. But of course we had some horrible turnovers. Harper passing on the open 3 and then throw it away gave Wisco the lead. Wisco just stuck to it. They made sure they weren’t gonna give it away. We did. Make no mistake, that Wisconsin team is nothing special. They had no business getting a win tonight. I HATE the quit and sloppiness I saw tonight. Please forgive me for disliking a team showing zero interest outside of JY and Myles tonight
That’s what our players say when it comes to making a free throw. Bye. Remarkably how pathetic we are in some aspects
Turned it off with about 5 minutes left when we went down 10
Only 2nd time I have EVER turned off an RU basketball game.
1st was when we got crushed at OSU this year.
I can’t take this **** any more.
Too painful to watch and waste my emotional energy.
I don’t make posts like this. But to go from tie game, to down 2, to total quit mode basically sealed it for me. Wisco was tougher mentally. We were pathetic
Don’t need to apologize for how you feel. You care. We all do. It’s extremely disappointing to watch
They really did not quit. We missed a few front ends of 1 and 1's and Trice hit a couple of shots, but we did not go in quit mode as you say. Did not play well. It is so deflating to miss the front end of foul shots. You can stay in games when you make them, but missing them are a killer.
You are right that Wisconsin was tougher mentally. When we were stuck on 40, we did play good defense, but in the end, not well enough
Harper and Geo really need to step up.
Best of Luck,

^^ This. These are supposed to be all-confernence type guys. Christ Harper is on the Wooden list. They simply can't play this poorly if we have any chance of turning this season around. I guess we don;t hve to worry about Harper leaving early.

Trash? Really? Would you say that to their face? COme on now.
Myles had a very good game other than his continued FT struggles (1-3 tonight).
Same for Jacob but missing the front end of two 1 and 1s is painful.
Cliff battled but I think he is less than 100%. Too many predetermined forced lons to him that were not open. Not his fault, but not good.
Caleb had a good first half and a bad 2nd one. Conditioning? Don't know.
The other four that played were bad tonight. Six assists for the whole team! None for Geo or Paul. The other four went 0 for 12 from deep.
Maybe Harper and Geo aren't 100%, or maybe their injuries threw off their game for now. Either way, PSU is a massive game for the rest of this season.

Harper quit on the turnover when it was tied and gave Wisconsin the lead. He pouted and looked at the ref. That play lost the game
You think I’m trolling? We’ve played like straight up trash since the last two minutes against Iowa. And I’m a troll because I have the nerve to call it out and talk about how frustrating this team is? Okay
You “hate this team”? Disappointed in? Yes. Frustrated by? Yes. Upset with? Yes.
But hate? Pretty sad commentary.
But hate? Pretty sad commentary.
Yes, I hate it when guys turn it over and then pout to the ref while the opposing team scores the go ahead basket and then basically watch the team quit and go down 10 with 4 minutes to go. As of now, I hate the attitude and the quit that I’ve seen
That was a big play and I agree with you on that. I thought you were talking about the whole team quitting, which they did not.
Best of Luck,

You're simply clueless. Teams that "quit" don't outrebound the other team by 50-35 and hold them to 35% shooting. The intensity and effort were there. We simply couldn't hit shots, which will happen on occasion. 2-19 from deep is probably a 3-sigma deviation and 2-7, including 3 missed front ends from the line, is horrid. Even just "bad" shooting would've given us 10+ more points and we lost by 6. Also, saying you "hate this team" is wrong, just wrong.
