Wait, you mean he didn't learn from his mentor Tom Izzo to hug the coach after a loss?
Minnesota leads 69-62 with just a minute to play. Mbakwe is a beast on both ends. Not that we would have wanted his person but what would we have been with Mbakwe the player?
50 seconds left. I predict a court storming.

Of course! How could I forget? Excellent catch. I feel a court storming as well.
Lots of clapping by TC!
Brother. Will Sheehey fakes an elbow to the face with 25 seconds left. The Bronzed Beast is going nuts demanding a Flagrant 2. Brother...
Go Gophers!
2 weeks in a row IU players try to get flagrant fouls called in their favor. Zeller pulling Nix's hand into his own nuts last week. And this week Sheehey with a terrible acting job trying to sell an elbow.
And yes, I know Ox tends to act, but that's in the run of the game and not trying to draw flagrant fouls.
Update: Lots of pressure 3s by IU
Man... IU faking a hit to the face with an elbow to get the flagrant foul. Good coaching.

That constitutes Tanned Tommy's most innovative yet equally ineffective in-game adjustment.
It was a quality in-game adjustment. Crean was actually coaching the flop in the TO prior to that in-bound. Minnesota needed that game way more than IU did. And finally, it is damned tough to win a road game against an opponent fighting for their tourney life.
To his credit, TC's handshake was fine - handshake, short convo, hug - even as the court was being stormed.
Tommy goes down and future C7 brethren Xavier beats Memphis tonight.

I saw that. Memphis is a curious program. Memphis has more churches per capita of any larger city but it is also Sodom and Gomorrah for the Mid-South. They've lost half a step since Calipari departed but Pastner is trying to do it the right way. I think. That place gave us Gene Bartow, Dana Kirk, Larry Finch, and Coach Cal...even Bartow had his problems with the NCAA. I relly think they need to ditch their half-baked football and focus on hoops.
Tommy pulled Zellers hands into his nuts at the end of the game?
I'm in the media room... still waiting on Crean.

Worked last night for Seton Hall. Their player grabbed pinkston by the arm and tried to pull him down. They call a T on pinkston (his 5th). After reviewing the play they end up calling a double T, but still cost Pinkston the end of the game on a BS acting job.
They should institute an automatic T for flopping.

This sparks my curiosity. If a team were to drop their struggling football team in the near future, who would we be interested in? And by this I mean teams that are actually struggling to even support their football program and might realistically benefit from dropping it, not dream scenarios.

How many D1 schools have dropped football in the last five years? I don't know but I'll guess the answer is zero. At the worst they dropped down to 1-AA
Can anyone answer?

They can't do that! Bo would never have any players available in the second half.

There no longer is any 1-AA. It was replaced by FCS. Dropping a team to FCS I'm sure would qualify a school for the new league since Villanova, Georgetown, and Butler have such teams.
Six years ago who could have possible thought that Mbakwe would knock a Tom Crean team out of The no.1 ranking and neither would be part of MU?
Ya never know!

Ok, how many D1 football teams have dropped to FCS in the last few years? Any of them worthy of C7 inclusion?
And what happens if Georgetown, Nova or Butler want to upgrade to D1 football? What do they do? Or, are they "stuck" in FCS?
Elite teams don't lose on the road!
If only The Tan One had done the Norm Dale routine and shown his team that the hoops in Minnesota are the same height as the ones back in their gym in Bloomington.

Idaho is considering it.
Apparently, someone has video of Tom Crean coaching his players to take an elbow right before it happened.
ESPN cut to the IU huddle right before that in-bounds play. It shows Crean gesturing with his elbow, grabbing it, pulling it, and emphasizing something. They come out and Sheehey goes for the Oscar. It may be a coincidence and completely un-related. ::)

DeadSpin actually hired a lip reader to interpret:

The best part of this article was one of the reader comments:
"How can anybody read Tom Crean's lips when he's got Dwyane Wade's d*ck in his mouth?"
Wish I could take credit for that one, but it wasn't me.
