I understand your point.  Chase may have been one of the best options there.  Unfortunately just not a good one on a poorly constructed team.  Need more offensive versatility and they just don't have it. 

It was a fun game though.  Nobody has quit.

Lots of people thought Bernie Madoff was a visionary too.

He wasn't taking a swipe at Catholics. He was taking a swipe at Marquette students by claiming they aren't Catholic on Ash Wednesday.

You know...from that renowned pious Catholic Rick Pitino.

Quote from: Johnny B on Today at 08:03:27 AMWhat was being chanted at Hopkins ?

Pretty sure it was "Duncan Powell".  Which is certainly a choice.

Quote from: wadesworld on Today at 05:03:50 AMSo what you're saying is that in the time after all of our quality wins happened we still had just one less Q1 win and equally as many wins over Tourney teams as Villanova has on the entire year this year?

Yeah, like I said, mid. Thanks for pointing that out.


No one, absolutely no one, is claiming that Villanova is better than last year's Marquette team. This was a comparison YOU started. It's a complete strawman.

Quote from: Shooter McGavin on Today at 07:44:25 AMIt was all second half as well. He did well anyway.  Give it to him to dribble and drive and kick to an open man if he doesn't have anything.  Way better option. As soon as Chase had the ball after the in bounds it was a lost possession.  Game over.  Water is wet. 

But when you're down by 4 points with 20 seconds left and have to go full court there isn't time to weave your way downcourt, drive into the lane, and kick out if you can't get to the basket.

Giving Ross the ball got the ball downcourt quickly, but he missed the good look he got. James would not have been able to get there as quickly because he would have been double teamed or trapped.

I was actually hoping that MU would go for a quick 3 as a Hail Mary because getting a quick two and fouling right away still requires a missed FT to make any progress.
