Thanks Jay Bee
We should be watching at Alary's!
House/dog sitting at someone's place and they have DirecTV. Just as the game started they blacked out SNY. Does anybody have DirecTV in Milwaukee and know if the game is on another channel/what channel it is on? Thanks in advance.

Junior....nice
Other than the 2 back door cuts, nice start. Seems like they really spread things out and way back, and look for cutters when MU plays the man. Chili, keep it going... I'll be checking in on the time outs, as I'm watching on the iPad...
Junior going to the floor. Nice effort.
Too many open 3s. Like Juan's offensive activity. Junior just took the 3 instead of passing to a wide open Jake. Telling.
I have no feel for this team. There are times it looks like a 10th to 12th place Big East team. Other times I think they might get as high as 5th or 6th.
This game is closer than it needs to be.
Too many turnovers and poor defensive effort.
Not sure what jr. Was doing w 12 seconds left. Not a good last look w plenty of time

Not all that much difference between 10-8, 9-9 and 8-10.
What the Hell is going on, we should be thrashing these guys. 11th place in Big East. Embarrasing!!!!!!!!!!!
I see Jamil is putting on his usual perfoirmance. Is dad helping him.
Jamil can be the difference between 11th place and 5th place. Unfortunately he hasn't done much today.
MU up 43-31 with two minutes to go in half. MU has 3 turnovers and scores nothing, NC Central closes with six points. Very sloppy closing. This should be a 25 point blowout game, maybe it still will, but.....
If announcers say Lockett due for break-out again, jeeez. The guy just hasn't done much.
J. Wilson has 0 points, one rebound and two turnovers. What has happened to him?
MU has 10 turnovers.
Blue and Junior are so much faster than NCC players. Mayo looked good and his minutes go up, Lockett's go down.
Buzz makes some adjustments, turnovers go down and MU should cruise in second half.
Don't ya love the Devante shooting the technical fouls and of course, nothing but net.
Or how about the nifty no look pass down low to the cutting Blue.
He is unique and its good that the big man plays big today especially for St. Jerome.
Other than a six-minute stretch in Green Bay, Jamil has looked disinterested pretty much all season. Nice block in final minute of half, though.
Anyone know how many ft's in a row Ox had till his miss?
Wow, Junior with two quick turnovers in first few minutes. Thought that would end. Buzz yanks him.
Krause and MacIlvaine just spent 2 minutes talking about NCC players have names *like* NBA players....but aren't actually related to them.
They sound bored too.
Dang, some of Blue's shots are equivalent to turnovers.
And I was wrong about Davante after watching him in the summer league. Kid has stepped up big time!
I wish Wilson had the same fire as Gardner.
Not likin' the start to the second half. Lazy feeling. N
Sounds like we are playing our "Lets see how close we can let these nobodys hang with us without getting beat" Game.
God this team is so frustrating. This team has no motivation for these games.
last three possessions. J. Wilson with charge, J. Wilson with foul, J. Wilson with turnover pass. What is going on with this guy?
I need to start drinking.

Kid does not have chip on shoulder like our JUCO guys have had
How is this team going to beat UConn and Georgetown next week?
A different team shows up for those games for some reason. We get the worst team when we play the bad teams.
I remember when these Crean Teams would pound the cupcakes, The buzz teams just dont

They won't beat South Florida and the likes if this play continues.

I've never thought he is as good a basketball player as most people here think. Very inconsistent and does not like contact.
All depends on who decides to show up next week.
Don't know whether team is sleepwalking or really this bad. We cannot defend the three nor shoot it. Gonna be a very, very long BE season.
It seems like like Lockett has hardly played since he hit that three early in the game.
Way to go Mayo!

Because Mayo is a better player. Period.

Fair enough, but I'd rather have them on the court together than this clusterfuck.
DWilson, Cadougan, Lockett, Anderson and JWilson.
Rather have Lockett on the floor than Jamil right now. Five turnovers.
Wilson just made another offensive foul. NCC can now tie it.
Buzz is sure subbing today at a pace I have not seen in awhile. He just had Junior and D. Wilson in at same time. How can they play consistent with all the constant changes?

Wilson is absolutely worthless ...

He is today. It is like he needs to be steaming mad to play well.

who scores with this linwup on the floor? Most of them are either afraid or don't know how.
Wilson has 0 points, 6 turnovers, 3 rebounds and 3 fouls.
Get this, he has not taken a shot the whole game. No fg attempts.
Taylor's in for Wilson. Speaks volumes
Fortunately Providence lost to Brown yesterday and there are a few others that have been big eye openers. We just seem to walk through the motions in too many games. I've been concerned since the SELA game and to this day I'm not sure we have looked like a NCAA team against anyone. Wisconsin played one of their worst games of the year against us and they aren't particularly good to begin with. LSU, jury is out. I don't know, maybe one of those years.
The Butler game may actually be the best game of the season so far.
SOTG: Mayo. Kept his head, including at end when he didn't force it with minute left. Leading rebounder and one of the leading scorers.

Not sure i would put him above Vander or JC, but Mayo looked pretty good, i'll give you that.

Agree. Outside of Jamil ( that's becoming a familiar refrain) we played very well against Butler. Took a lucky shot to beat us.
Junior's early turnovers in the second half alone should disqualify him from SOTG. I say Mayo.
Glad to get the win, but sure worried about the BE season.
Yeah, the Butler game looks the best, though I thought Butler played pretty average that game by their standards. I don't know if we played well, they played average, or a combination of all the above.
So MU shoots 60% from the field, 45.5% from 3pt, and 81.5% from the line and they still have a tough time winning? I guess all of that gets negated pretty easily with 20 TO's.
Feel okay with this game. Mayo may be the smartest basketball player we have.
There are two conclusions I drew from this game: 1.) Thank God Todd Mayo is back 2.) I can't wait to get the JUCO edge back next season
Really surprised with this level of struggle from Wilson. Needs to at least board and defend average at BE level.
Hopefully Steve Taylor can elevate his game on a fast track.
Also does Otule suck or is he injured, why no pt?

Maybe Jerry Palm is right about this year's team.
Jamil Wilson's play has been nothing but dumbfounding to me. I have no explanations for games like this from him.

Otule actually played the first six minutes of the game, then sporadic minutes after for a total of 13. He is just not the player he once was, which was just more than a defensive big.
When you saw Taylor in for Wilson at the end of the game, it might have been a sign of things to come.
Loved that strong move to the bucket that Taylor made in 2nd half.
I'm utterly shocked with Wilson's play so far. I thought he was the most likely to break out this year. Especially playing these 2-3 zones, you would think he'd be great at sitting right on the free throw line and either taking the shot or putting the ball on the floor.
Marquette plays down to the level of competition. It happens every year. This year its more noticeable because this team has no alpha-dog scorer like we have had in the past. Vander and Junior really score based off of the team. The fact that we were able to grind out the win is more of a positive then a negative. Not always a bad thing to get some heat from a poor team before facing a better team (UConn)
Not really anyone for Chris to guard in a game like this. NCC played 5 perimeter guys the whole game.
