Quote from: wadesworld on Today at 08:37:05 AMI bet if Shaka cared more about the rivalry he'd be at least 4-1 against Wisconsin.

 

Or if he had a UW alum brother in law who made fun of him on Christmas Eve.

Quote from: Jay Bee on Today at 07:24:21 AMHis %shots has risen almost 4% compared to last year, and the teams DR has improved markedly — its the best we've seen since before covid hit

What a load of crap for a player shooting the worst he's shot since freshman year.  But increased usage explains that, right? Or just maybe, he simply isn't good enough for increased usage. 

His EFG is always going to look better because he makes quite a bit more 3's than two point FG. 

Even advanced stats can't tell nearly the whole story. If they did, why would we need to bother to watch the games to provide commentary. 

Enjoy being probably last person here defending his performance.  #Skol

I bet if Shaka cared more about the rivalry he'd be at least 4-1 against Wisconsin.

Shaka is from not just WI but near Madison. He should understand the rivalry. Does he not, or does he not care?

Yep. I am educating people on what is important. If you were smart you would heed my wise words. But...

Quote from: onepost on December 06, 2025, 10:24:28 PMWe've spent all afternoon focusing on stuff that's important. Look at the title of the thread you're in: presser comments are literally what we're talking about.

Back to hammering the point home that Shaka has no grasp on roster construction I go.

...its Sultan. Just sayin'

Quote from: rocky_warrior on December 06, 2025, 09:02:57 PMWell, unless that coach is Rick Pitino.

was thinking the same...or maybe Bobby Knight back in the day.

Quote from: HutchwasClutch on December 06, 2025, 06:55:15 PMI don't know what the hell you're watching.  If this were true, we wouldn't be 5-5 without a high major win. As you say, #Fake News #Lies

Wow. There are so many reasons beyond BG why this team is a mess. How about if the players made a few more layups we would have several more wins. Never seen so many missed bunnies in my life by this group. This is not a one player fail, this is a whole team fail.

This season is shaping up to be the worst season since 1987-88 which was Dukiets last season. That team finished with 10 wins. When comparing the rosters, that team had Tony Smith, Mark Anglavar, and Trevor Powell. Advantage '87-88. Genuinely awful MU teams don't happen very often, and when it happens, it results in changes. Likely not the case here, but we're making history in '25-26!
