Oso planning to go pro
Yes. It's dumb. Very dumb. It's hardly even debatable.How does extending the game help when you're down two possessions the entire time? It doesn't.Feel free to argue otherwise. It's says all we need to know about you.
Wojo only gets in the easy Top 20s.
Wow, aggressive. What makes you so angry all the time?
We weren’t a legit Top 20 team last year.
Dumb, icomplaints made only for the sake of complaining, bro.
25 games ranked19 in top 2012 in top 156 in top 10But that’s not legit Top 20. Got it.
You are what your record says you are. We finished 33 in KenPom. I’d rather win in February/March than November/December. Thanks for getting the numbers though. Wager for next year on if we finish season in Top 20?
Just leave the board if discussions are too hard for you. All you do is rip on posters you disagree with. Dissenting opinions will always come up. Learn to disagree with someone without having to insult them. It's really not that hard.
Hard to say if we will be in the Top 20 next year with all of the incoming freshman. I’d probably put us right at the fringe of being ranked next year but I’d like our odds of being top 20 in 2021-22. Assuming Wojo is still here.
Nah. There's lots of times I disagree with people here and don't rip them. It's mostly just the people who make nonsensical arguments I rip on.Sorry if it offends you, but arguing that it's better to be down two possessions than one with under 30 left because it "extends the game" is nonsensical.
I’d be quite happy if we are fringe Top 20 next year. I suspect we will be in the 40-55 range.
??Fouling down 3 with 40 seconds left in the game is dumb and hardly even debatable? I think extending the game and increasing the variables is preferable to hoping to hit the trifecta - a Nova miss without a foul, a defensive rebound and a team dumb enough to let us shoot (and of course make) a last second game tying 3.But no matter one’s opinion, calling either choice dumb and not even debatable is both.
Actually after 10 games in Year 1. Realize 10 games/end of Year 2 is a very short leash, but in my view he didn’t have “it.”
Lenny ... the alternate strategy would have required one of the nation's best FT shooting teams to miss multiple free throws over and over again, while MU on the other end would have to start making shots that they'd been missing most of the night. Two things that were far more improbable than Nova missing a shot and MU getting a defensive rebound.I'll say this and leave it be ... the strategy MU used put them in an excellent position to be down one point with 5+ seconds to play and, at worse after that, the ball in their hands with 4-5 to play, a timeout available to set up a play, and chance to hit a shot for a win or tie. What more can you ask for exactly? The strategy gave MU a chance. The alternative only gave MU a chance if a Nova suddenly forgot how to shoot free throws, at home.
Except Nova was missing FTs AND if Nova made the basket with 10 seconds left we are down either 5 or 6 - and it is absolutely game over at that point.
We weren’t a legit Top 20 team last year. Big East blew, and we got blasted by a mid-major...not to mention Big East as a whole blew on NCAA last year. Care to wager on if we are a Top 20 team next year, in Year 7? I’m glad we are in Top 20 right now, yet it is also concerning that this seems to be high water mark with a generational talent at MU in Markus.
unnatural carnal knowledge off you god damn piece of unnatural carnal knowledgeing crap...who wishes anything bad on someone?? Go to hell you pretty boy. What kind of a douchebag human being are you??

OK, so if things play out your way, we make our FTs with 5 seconds left and we're down 1. Then Nova inbounds, and we foul right away, so they're at the line with 3-4 seconds left. Based on your assumption that Nova won't miss any FTs, we get the ball back, 90 feet away, down 3 with 3-4 seconds on the clock. And then all Nova has to do is foul us before we get a shot off, and then the game is over. Fouling earlier has risks associated with it too, but trying to start trading 3 for 2 isn't a crazy idea considering how well we shoot from 3. And since we had some momentum moving our way, I think giving our guys a few more offensive possessions could have be worth the risk.
Im looking for the post where u admit Ur a sh!t fan. U suck and im sure ur life sucks or u wouldnt make those comments. Im glad ur life sucks. Go root for another team
