Good effort

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

It was an entertaining game. They didn't win, but they played well and it was never frustrating to watch them...OK, maybe for 2 FT attempts!

I've tried real hard to stick up for Buzz much of the season, but it's been real difficult.

I was totally flummoxed when he brought back a limping Derrick in the closing minute with the team taking the court on offense!

Good effort, glad to see Buzz starting Burton.  Didn't get to hear why he did it, but glad he did it.

Take the NIT bid.

If offered can we turn it down? I thought there was a rule that a team has to accept the offer. None the less we should go. I think we found our go to guy (burton) for next season barring any surprises over the summer. I hope Buzz has his first team with 13 scholarship players next season... now that would be something.

There's a rule you can't turn down the NCAA bid, a result of Al turning it down.  I'm not sure about the NIT to be honest.

He was injured. Just got off phone with friend who was at game

No he wasn't. Buzz was unhappy with his defense. Read hunts blog, the quote is there.

You do not have to go to NIT. But I think it is dumb not go. Even Kentucky took the bid. Did it hurt them? NO

derrick takes the court after not being able to shoot the freethrows=understandably, but burton was hurt??  what did he do, hurt himself taking a wizz at halftime?  not faulting deonte at all, but ya think there would have been some news about it during the game as he had 1/2 our points up to the point he left the game.  where was erin andrews?  never mind...
