I hate to be negative about a kid who works hard and represents the program well but Heldt was very bad today.  As stated in this thread, he's more suited to play 10-12 minutes per game.

Nothing more to add about Rowsey.

The third foul on Markus was huge and that is entirely on him.  You have to have the awareness not to commit a stupid reaching foul with under a minute left in the half when you already have two.  That obviously hurt us a lot in the 2nd half with him sitting.   

The prayer of a 3 point shot at the end of the first half after we played great defense for the entire possession hurt as well. 

Really liked what I saw from Cain today.  His upside is off the charts.

Disappointing effort.

Agree with all of this except the last line.

"Effort" is not a synonym for "performance." We tried plenty hard today. Just didn't perform well enough.

That's fair.  Wrong choice of words - I had no issues with the effort put forth and didn't mean it that way.

There were some bright spots today. The stretch with 4/5 consecutive turnovers was the difference.  Matt had some close ones roll out, Rowsey started off cold, and the foul trouble reduced out options.

Georgia was so much bigger and they hit a few circus shots, too.  This isn't a great team, but i think they'll surprise us all.

The kid can ball and isn’t a one trick pony. Granted his D is non-existent. Maybe it’s more disenchantment with the present corp of guards. BTW, Rowsey is just a punk. Either Wojo lacks the ability to evaluate talent and/or can’t develop it.

For MU to be any good all three of AR, M2N and SH have to play well. None of them were good enough for enough of the game today for us to get the win.

If Rowsey was any other team than MU, I would hate him like Kelly Tripucka or David Rivers.

We just need a pure PG and a post scoring threat. A lot to ask but thats what is needed around all the shooters we have.

When does the heat begin to rise under Wojo's ass? All his players, including Heldt and Rowsey. Maybe Wojo should be making power point presentations to the team, since he is good at that.

Bummer of a performance and result, but the truth is that we had a chance to win before the drought of the last few minutes.

My feelings about Rowsey this year remind me of how I felt about Carlino. If he’s on, then it’s incredible. If not, he’s just a chucker and turnover machine. And, Rowsey seems to often be in competition with Howard. If Howard seems hot, Rowsey doesn’t feed him, but tries to match him.

I’m sensing that Hauser is having a sophomore slump. Yes, he has his moments (especially his 30 point game), but mostly he’s been inconsistent and it feels like he’s not the reliable 3rd option that this team begs for. I agree he needs better spacing, and hope that Froling will bring that.

Gosh, QG would’ve been a great addition going into next year.

Today's finish was was disappointing for sure. However, I remain confident we are going to have a very strong season .  Our best player got in early foul trouble and we still hung in there against a quality team. Big 3 had 52 which is a short of the 60 mark that they are capable of and we need them to be at.  Our coaching staff will work with Heldt to teach him the the necessary adjustments on his bunnies going forward, the good news is he actually had quite a few decent looks. I am more and more bullish on Greg Elliott each game. Today was a great learning experience for him. and it is clear he and Cain have great chemistry. When the guys watch the film of this game they will recognize the need to improve shot selection and ball rotation.

KPom is not so optimistic.  Now projected to be 15-15 and 7-11.

I have had more joy with MU ball to last me a lifetime. I love talking about the old days and hope everyone younger than me can have some lifelong memories.

Whine? I don’t care enough to whine. That said, you are a nut.
