New Mehico game thread

If I were D. Burt, JJJ and Dawson I would transfer.  None of them can start over JT and Derrick Wilson. Are u kidding me????!!! I bet my life at least one of them will transfer. Buzz is pathetic

If none of them do, will you just off yourself?

[Nevada233]

When you have to run screen plays for Jake...
And you have a PG who can't score...
Jamil who is a reluctant leader...
It puts stress on the team.

Stress this team cannot handle until it gets consistent scoring and defense from its perimeter players.

I'm greatly disappointed in Buzz's decision to stress the team with Jake and Derrick.
He needs to start the freshmen as early and as often, or risk losing them.

Creighton recruited Dawson. . . I know hes second guessing this decision. . . Another DNP behind a non shooter.

no need. Everything I been saying has come to fruition

[Afroman]

Having one player transfer isn't that big of a stretch. Doesn't it usually happen every year?

+1000

thats all I been saying and been getting rediculed for saying so..

When you cheer against your team and proclaim they will lose 5 minutes into the game, you probably are going to get ridiculed

I don't think he cheered against us to be honest, but he certainly felt we weren't going to hang on to that 7 point half time lead.  Unfortunately he was correct.

[chapman]

Hey DePaul has a better record than us.....

Need to schedule some more SWAC teams next year.

This team us rutterless.  No one wanted the ball at the end.  I'm at the game and I'm pissed

The possession just under a minute that took 20-some seconds to get a shot off was just pathetic.  Jake did want the ball, but nothing doing when he had four teammates crowding him on the perimeter, two of which weren't a threat to shoot from there to begin with (and one of them who took the shot anyway).

The starting sr and jr back court....
Just isnt gonna deliver the groceries...
If we 7-5 before BE Play. Sheeesh
Whats the ceiling for this team. Honestly.
Freshmen Cullen Neal goes for a career high
against our upper classmen while our frosh watch..
Sheesh

[Eldon]

Start the freshmen.

Sit Derrick and Jake.

Think of the future, not a back-up PG who can't score nor a SG who can't create his own shot.

MU has to position guys JUST TO OPEN UP SHOTS for them. sad.

I'm afraid this is the type of season, Buzz may just say, "Hello, Texas."

And with this type of season, Texas may say "no thanks."

Plus, if one bad season makes buzz want to leave, then adios homie.

Proclaiming over and over again that the other team will win and telling everyone "you'll see" is essentially cheering for the other team.  He was hoping he was correct and therefore hoping the other team would win

I bet Fr. Kelly is already at Crazy Horse getting a table dance.

Buzz has done a terrible job with JJJ this year. He's a double digit scorer just sitting on the bench. Not bad defensively either. He might transfer unless his role increases in upcoming games. It would be completely justified too. Feel bad for the kid.

Perhaps, or maybe if we won he would have said he was wrong.  Maybe he just isn't sunshine pumper, which can be just as bad when people are in denial about reality.  I don't know, just guessing.

absolutely true. except. he would never have said he was wrong. look through his posts. not his MO.

Can you blame him? Of course he's rooting against the team; Buzz is the reason he got fired and now has to move back to Scranton, the armpit of Pennsylvania.

Creighton recruited Dawson. . . I know hes second guessing this decision. . . Another DNP behind a non shooter.

And didn't I hear he was from N. Mexico and had a bunch of family & friends at the game.  Why not put him in - could hardly be worse than what was in there.

[Norm]

would you like to bet on this? put your money where your mouth is

Sure. What do you want to stake? The way we are playing right now we will not finish above Villanova, Georgetown, Xavier, Creighton, or Butler. Heck, even DePaul has a better record than MU right now.

[AirPunches]

And didn't I hear he was from N. Mexico and had a bunch of family & friends at the game.  Why not put him in - could hardly be worse than what was in there.

A valid argument can be made that MU's pg is subpar but I don't think an argument can be made for Dawson. He is not any better offensively than Derrick.

[rocky_warrior]

In honor of your optimism, I just cracked open a Sierra Nevada Celebration ale.  I've got some more of these, and some Deschutes Jubelale queued up.

And now I've switched to Bridgeport Ebenezer Ale.  The best tasting of the three, but I was hoping to not break it out tonight.

[jesmu84]

2 12 packs of local brew? Terms being MU finishes in top half of BE by regular season record, including tie-breakers, I win. Bottom half, you win.

I'd challenge that.

Especially when Derrick goes for 1-2 on the night.

Wait didn't we just celebrate Buzz for being pissed at Homer for asking the same question?
This team is full of hairy wet cats that need to run the table in conference or they are done-zo

[Nevada233]

Yea his family was there from New Mexico and never even took off his warm up tonite.

I feel bad for the kid.... Hope he does whats best for him hes glued to the bench at MU.

[madtownwarrior]

Both CU and OSU beat Marq.   Not sure MU in top 68 teams at the moment.  At least the Buzz to UT talk dies down.
