This is a fun tweet. We should all call, fire Gard!

You're thinking of their home win against Western Kentucky. Davison drew a questionable "charge" with a second left to get free throws to win.

I am indeed. Very much so.

I'd give Gard an extension and a raise!

Careful, you don’t want to make powerful enemies like the future US ambassador to Australia.

Bucky is up by 11 at home to a semi-decent Nebraska team.

This is nearly a perfect outcome.  If Bucky wins this game they are 11-12 (4-6) and going to no post-season tournament (unless they want to pay to play Vegas). 

But a win like this increases the chance that Barry keeps Gard one more season.  Please, please Barry, show some patience with your coach.  After all, you need five years to judge!

Best part ... the Big Ten wanted Madison Square Garden so bad they moved up their tournament a week.  It starts February 28.

This means Bucky gets no bye and is a severe dog in their first game.  So ... their season could be done February 28 meaning they are the first power 5 team to end their season in 2018!!!

29 days until this miserable Bucky season is over.  Then Barry can give Gard a vote of confidence and a week later Happ announces he is Grad transferring.

As you noted, Bucky was outscored by 22 points in the last 10 minutes at home.  I will never again underestimate how much Bucky can suck.

This is getting to the point where I'd actually like them to win 2-3 more games

Nebraska is putting together a very odd high major resume. They could finish 14-4 in the Big 10 with one win over a tournament team. Will a 45 RPI be good enough with a 103 SOS and very little substance on the resume?

Maryland is in a similar boat. The numbers will look good but there's not much behind them. It'll be really interesting to see what happens with the Big 10 bubble teams.

Your detailed knowledge of autonomous cars impressed me. This is wasted intellectual energy. Wisconsin Badger basketball is heretofore irrelevant.

In all the Badgers talk i find it funny that with how bad they are they only have 5 more losses than we do. Does that say something about the state of our program?

No.

82-63 at the Kohl Hole says something about the state of our respective programs.

Our trend UP, their trend DOWN says something about the state of our respective programs.

Top Wisconsin recruits consistently choosing MU over UW says something about the state of our respective programs.

Five more losses is 63% more than we have.

And I can't believe you said "only 5 more losses"  on a board where many treat a single defeat, even against a top 10 team, as the death of the program.
Have some patience, FFS.

I understand all of it im just tired of everyone settling for mediocrity. Everyone always expects us to lose to Xavier, Villanova, Butler, Seton Hall. When the hell do we finally turn the corner. I remember when we have james, Mcneal and matthews. We would go in anywhere and expect to win. Uconn, Louiville, Syracuse all top 15 teams it never mattered we would come out with a win. I just want the program to get back to where its expected we make the tournament and at least the 2nd round.

My point about the losses is that we have 8 already to wisconsins 13. 8 losses is alot to have at this point of the season doesn't matter if we played xavier x 2 or villanova x 2 the fact is we ALWAYS lose the big games. And to say that Wisconsin is so much worse is quite a stretch.

See January 24 of last year.  Or the fact that we went 3-1 against X and Nova last year.  You can't always beat good teams, that's why they're called good teams

We literally beat the #1 team in the country just over a year ago.

Anyway, if you can't see how the future is bright, I don't know what to tell you.

You are remembering selectively. We had poor records against Syracuse and Louisville when they were in the Big East.

I know the future is bright but its been a few years and im ready for a tourny run. I still belive this team can get to the second weekend of the tournament IF we stay off the 8/9 seed line. The way we shoot the 3 we can beat anyone. Our D is always the reason we lose. I fully understand that next years team is going to be the best team we have had since out elite 8 run. I am looking forward to the future its just been a painful journey.
