Pike did a terrible job today in his substitutions especially where Cam and Andre were not out there in a he last 7 minutes. Bad move by Pike.

Cam wasn’t doing anything all game and was 1-5. What game were you watching?

Hyatt played okay but we had other 7-8 guys who couldn’t make a bucket for how
many minutes?

I watched the entire game pal. Just because Can is 1-5 you don’t take it it our best shooter. So it’s okay to give Caleb four more misses from three point stripe? If you’re going to criticize me know what the hell you’re talking about.

Cam was awful today. Watch better.

Cam is not a scorer — he’s a shooter. He doesn’t get to rim or the foul line. If he’s not banging down the jumper there’s no reason to have him out there especially against a team like Illinois who is so long

Aundre basically our for the entire scoring drought which was 10:39 without a basket and he hit the last 3 baskets before the drought
Also agreed on Cam not being in there you has no one who could make a shot
Why did Aundre take the T Paul is a much better foul shooter

Definitely too much Reiber today but at that time Pike was already down to 2 timeouts. Still not his best day, but not a single player stepped up.

During the Last 13 minutes of the game no one was hitting. You don’t take out your best pure shooter for the entire game with 9 minutes left

You do if you don’t have confidence in him. Looking for other options. There were none unfortunately

Can't believe Pike didn't go ballistic on the elbow to Hyatt's face. Soft, there was nothing to lose at that point. He should have also made an issue of the palm call and make it know he wants one back later, there was one obvious on Maier or whatever his name is when he momentarily lost the handle. Sitting Cliff too long was a mistake too, which was obvious during the game, but I guess he accomplished his goal of not having Cliff foul out. Bad day of coaching and playing, worst ten minutes I can ever remember.

Ken agree. But that’s just it we didn’t have options and we needed Cam and Aundre in there to keep shooting. When you’re a pure shooter like Cam is he needs more shots not less shots to get out of his slump. Now we have a kid who appears to have lost his confidence. We need him down the stretch.

Terrible coaching job Hyatt is your only guy making a shot and he’s not on the court for the whole scoring drought just horrendous
Hyatt was 1-7 in the first half and couldn’t guard the perimeter in the second. Just saying . . . .

Coaching a team that consists of mediocre shooters limits substitution options.The loss of Baker and Harper can't be under stated because there are no go to scorers on this team.Cam making the winning shots against Purdue and Northwestern had me hopeful but opponents are limiting his 3 point shots.Scoring even 60 points is becoming very difficult.

How about nobody was good today (mainly in the second half), so throwing in Miller-Simpson-Palmquist-Reiber-Woolfolk when we bench every starter wouldn’t have worked?

We need someone to step up, simple as that

We run zero plays to get Cam open we have no clue what an off the ball or back screen is we have to do this

Simpson hurt us offensively big time. I think he could be a great one but growing pains are haunting us and shouldn’t be slamming passes against backboard in February. Missed wide open shots. Hope he is working on shooting with a 1,000 shots a day.

Reiber actually rebounded well if he couldn’t guard.

If I was Pike right before half I go ballistic on that Paul palming call. Have to protect players. Paul wasn’t same player in 2nd half. That’s on Pike. Illinois coach smirking. Should never ever happen.

None of this anything to do with Mag.
