2nd place in the Big East
« on: February 09, 2020, 12:58:22 PM »
So many fun posts in Dec and January that look so dumb right now.


Nice job by Wojo, staff and team.  I liked when Markus took that horrible corner shot he grabbed him and sat him a bit later....great defense.

There were no boos today. A nice crowd and great win. Wojo really has the program trending upwards on the court and in recruiting these last few weeks.

Unless I read it wrong, I believe Ryan Conway was at game.

Free throws and defense lead to going deep into the tourny.

Wojo made sure to thank the crowd when Homer was ready to end the post game interview. Said they were awesome and said it was an honor to play in such a great atmosphere( or something like that) today.

We started off 1-3.  That warrants some serious concern.

We’ve won 6 of 7.  That warrants some serious props. 

I like where we’re headed.  Biggest concern at 1-3 was would it all fall apart.  Coaching staff turned it around and it didn’t.   Kudos to them.  They deserve every bit of praise.  This has been a lot of fun to watch.

The Providence loss caused a collective loss of minds.   It was proof of all the bad anyone thought about Wojo.

And yet here we are.   This team doesn't suck.   It isn't soft.   Wojo can coach.

Yep.....it was never soft.....and they never sucked.....they just didn’t play well and lost a game when a bad shooter made a contested 3 to force ot.

Disagree...the 1-3 was as much who and where we played.  Some people just piss their pants too easily at the slightest hint of adversity.

Anyone know how long it’s been since MU last win at the Pavillion? I remember they came back down 18 at the other place in the buzz years but can’t really remember many other wins at Nova. Expecting a good one Wednesday.

Yes, they do.   Instead of seeing Providence as one of those things, it was viewed as a harbinger of doom.

Not an ideal time to be playing Nova...Have lost 2 of their last 3 at home. That almost never happens. They are going to be loaded for bear Wednesday.

Satan Hall hadn't won at Nova in like 25 years...until yesterday.  Let's take Nova down while they're down.
