Budd admirable dishing day but lost the game with live ball turnovers and uncanny poor decisions
Clark with an awful game today. Bonehead plays all day and especially down the stretch.
The foul disparity in a physical game like this is eye opening.
Clark cost us this ganem. Yes the officials sucked but continually Clark seeks his shot instead of looking for the best one for the offense. If he does not work on this and stays with us next year, we won't improve
Refs call with 51 seconds a killer. Hall up by 1 and there was no foul.
With a big hand from the refs. And stay in Vegas by the way.NCAA home plate ump just called it “you’re out”.
Terrible officiating was the difference. You have to play a perfect game to overcome that on the road against a top program. We were close to perfect....but not 100%
Clark lucky he got clutch shot against the trash of Big east. I love the guy, but always felt he was up and down. We saw tonight how he does against the best. If Sha had the balls just bench this guy. We actually played better without him bro. And I'm tired of relying on this guy. Obviously probably good reason, but for me if Sha develops guys better we didn't need to rely on him or anyone. We literally played great cause almost everyone stepped up. SIGN HINES.Only priority. Bring back Rivera, Dar, Godswill, Simpkims. Clark has not delivered against the best. Thank you for getting us wins most of the time against teams we should beat, but no excuses anymore. And we should be able to find a point guard with better height and offense anyway. HE relies on the midrange only. It's tiring.
Lost an opportunity. But team showed up big. When I saw Potter out there i had a feeling of doom
Spread was 13.5, so probably not.
Plus the foul call against Clark was so egregious and sad it’s the decider in a game like this.
100% correct about focusing NIL $$$ on Hines. Big men in college with the skill set Hines has flashed do not grow on trees Clark is a nice player but his inability to hit the three will keep many other teams away. I don’t know if he will command the same money to retain that Hines will.
The fouls were unbalanced.
ASM did rake Ball across the arm on the replay with 1 second to go on the shot clock. Wasn’t his guy. No need to reach in there.
Every time they needed a boost their fans picked them up after any positive play. Having a home court advantage matters. And it does ultimately impact the human element of the refs making calls too.

UCONN had three fouls for 19+ minutes of the 2nd half. SHU had 14. Absolutely ridiculous.
You guys beat up on Clark, but most of the season he’s bailing our *** out. Just shut the hell up. Yes he had a bad game, but that’s because UConn has world class guards who get paid $$$$$. He’s maybe 5’8”. Against 6’5” is not always going to work. Point shaving? We were 13+ dogs. Give it up. They played a great game against the #6 team in the country. If the fouls wouldn’t have been thrown in there?????
And he has been terrible free throw shooter too. Like I said I never seen him play great against the best teams anyway. I don't want to be a hypocrite cause I like the guy and most important player as a playmaker and stepped up as arguably our best player, but he has shown he is not good enough to carry that load like tonight. He just isn't as consistent and Sha should've done better to not rely on an undersized guard like him.
I hate being hypocritical and lashing out, but this was a huge game again that we have had many times and he first of all plays bad again, which he has against the best tis season, but a game when your teammates were much better from Hines, Fisher, even Willaims, and he does an arrogant despicable foul bait down by three.
In general the guy was literally hogging the ball for the last shot. I appreciate his big shots this season and during the middle part of the season he has been the best player, but for me it's selfish to take the shots he did and it's been evident for me he hasn't been consistent enough in big games like this.
This guy isn't Powell or Whitehead to have excuses. He has to deliver more and I think he has been huge many times, and still our best player, but he has proven to be inconsistent and to be fair that's everyone, but today he needed to trust his teammates down the stretch.
Defensive liability? With all those steals and b
How pesky he is?
