It only gets worse for Bucky

[Black Swan]

Lay off 2323. He is clearly either 10 years old or slow. I am a very proud UW grad and I  really like Davison but he is a role player on a good team. He has to quit with the fake hustle, start moving his feet and stop with the constant flops. For every charge he takes he costs his team multiple points. Any team would like to have him but at this stage of his career, if he is a top 2 player the team will stink as UW's record indicates.

What was the Badgers record the last 10?

5-5 the last 10

5-8 the last 13


Congrats.

Exactly ... when they "played well" they were a .500 B1G.  7th place.  That is not going to get it done.

As a badger hater, I think the last 5 games was the perfect outcome.  Gard stays.  He cannot recruit and he cannot develop talent like Bo.  Herro decommitting is like Wolf choosing UNC.  Stick a fork in them.  The next question is how much mediocrity do they want to put up with before they start over with someone else?

Andy Katz is an idiot and also a badger alumn. Kobe king played like 5 games and averaged 10 points or less. Trice is complete garbage. Probably the worst 3 pt shooter I have seen.

Because they're black?

[GooooMarquette]

Because they're black?

No. Because they don’t have heart.

[Stretchdeltsig]

Come on, man. Everybody knows that Kobe King would be the best player in Marquette history.

Just trying to figure out who among Wade, Lucas, Lee, Thompson, Meminger, Lackey, etc, would be second.

You are a complete idiot.  King cannot cut it at MU.  He should be playing at Green Bay.

All I know is that a 19 year pain in my ass ended on Friday and I hope the relief lasts for years.

What was the Badgers record the last 10?

To be fair, I said 8 to 10.

Last 10 was 5-5.  Last 8 was was 5-3.

The losses, twice to Michigan State by a total of 8 points (5 and 3 point losses).  A loss to red hot Michigan.   In that stretch they beat top 10 Purdue

Who gives a f***k.  Enjoy the moral victories

I think they aren't as bad as people are making them out to be and will be back next year.  I have enjoyed their down season.

They hit Purdue and Michigan State at he right time welhen both were struggling. Spartan went down 27 against northwestern before pulling off an epic comeback and they proved Bucky’s moral victory was not as the crapped the bed against Michigan the next day.

But hey, keep making excuses.  Thrilled Gard is returning.  Next year is year 4 and all he has left is Happ ... his last Bo player.

As I wrote before, I hope the excuses continue and Grad is allowed years to turn them into Rutgers.

King should be playing for Green Bay ... and his coach should be Gard.

[Tugg Speedman]

Who is the best player Gard recruited as HC?  Wojo has Ellenson, Rowsey , Katin, Sam and Markus.  Eliott, Cain and Theo might make this list. more coming.

Gard cannot recruit

Since Purdue lost to Wisconsin they have won 5 straight and play for the Big Ten Tournament title today against a very game Michigan team.  Michigan State is 24-3, I agree they have not looked quite as good, but 24-3 indicates how good of a team they are.

Wisconsin will be better next year and we shouldn't think this is the new norm, not yet anyway.  Way too early to tell.

I mean, I don't think Black Swan has been anything but reasonable any time he/she has posted. So I'm not going to insult or discourage him/her from posting in the future.

Only lost to MSU by 8 points, but fails to mention the the 4 point win over Purdue, had to take Minnesota in OT, NW by 6 and Maryland by 5. They really blew those teams out of the water.

Davison and King.

I did mention the win over Purdue.  Any win over a top 10 team is a good win, by 4 or 8 or 20 or 1 point.

Yes, it took OT for a road win against Minnesota.  A road win at Northwestern, any road win is good.  Remember we just lost on the road to DePaul, the road is tough.  Maryland win was a higher seeded team in their tournament and won on a neutral court.

Wisconsin was horrible this year. We’ll see if they’re significantly better next year, but they were an awful team this year.

This is three most accurate post I've seen so far

I would say they were decent out of the gate.  Xavier game was tied with a few minutes to go.  Lost to UCLA in final seconds.  Baylor game was a bucket difference with a few minutes to play. Then they had about a 10 to 15 game stretch of very poor basketball, but finished respectable in the last eight when they learned to play with their remaining parts.

So a lot of...losses?

Yeah, I’ll stick with them being a bad team this year. 9th out of 14 teams in a bad league. Under .500 record on the season.

They weren’t good this year. At all.

Yeah, I'm leaning that way too.  He registered in 2008 and I don't think he is a sleeping cell Troller for all those years.

To me his comments on the Heart issue was more emotional rather than rational, similar to ones we find in the  our  "In  game thread."  Then it just got lines drawn in the sand.

Wouldn't be Scoop without Chicos fluffing the Badgers.
