I haven’t followed the team closely other than to see their record and knowing they are really struggling. I looked at the box score today and noticed that Daley, Morris and Hartman did not play. Are they out because of injury or coach’s decision?
Character win against another bottom feeder in the Big Ten. Speaks well for the team and coach but this team just doesn't have the Sally's and Suzie's, or whatever. A lot of recruiting misses.

There just isn't any athletic physicality to their play. It is kind of just chuck it and hope. Almost timid. I don't blame that on coaching and scheme. Every team needs a couple of players that physically set a tone. That's what I see when I watch but others may have more insight. I know it is not a good time to be critical after a win that showed so much character but character and scrambling defense can carry them only so far. Coach Joe has been good but in recent years they are just getting out recruited badly or at least inconsistently from what I can tell relative to their peers.
