Where do the points come from with that lineup?

[geagles10]

What do you guys think mayo is thinking on the bench?

[warriorstrack]

NCAA party ain't over until the fat lady sings, but I hear her warming up

[muhoops1]

MU is bringing me back to reality.  Just not that talented and strangely not a hustle team anymore.  How can Buzz repeatedly defend this team's collective IQ and effort?  This swoon will last at least one more year until the light switch goes on for some of these guys

[Nevada233]

Let's get the best freaking guys on the court...

Gardner
Mayo
Jake
Burton
Dawson

Its time to blow this thing up and put a new lineup out there.


THIS IS GETTING UGLY

Let's get the best freaking guys on the court...

Gardner
Mayo
Jake
Burton
Dawson

Ummm...never mind.

[MattyWarrior]

This is Buzzs worst team as far as fundamentals go,embarassing to watch!

[NersEllenson]

Our two leading scorers for the game..

Gardner and Mayo with 8 and 7, don't play the first 4 minutes of 2nd half in a game we trail by 11. Wow...and deficit has swollen to 18...with the amazing defensive team.

[Boozemon Barro]

In arguably the most important game of the year, we were down by 14 in the second half and had an offensive possession with Derrick Wilson, Jake Thomas, Juan Anderson, Steve Taylor, and Chris O'Tule on the floor. That gives us a 2% chance of scoring on that possession.

[warriorstrack]

Could be a match-up problem for a NIT opponent, Gardner could own most teams we would prob see in that tourney

[mugrack]

Nice crash and burn on big boy CBS

[NersEllenson]

Ummm...never mind.

LOL - just can't acknowledge how awful this team is with Derrick running the point and being zero threat to shoot a jump shot.

Burton is upgrade over Jamil at  this point...

[BenCat12]

I would like to thank whoever that was that has the gif of Jake Thomas as Jake The Snake Roberts.  Every time I see him now, I see him with flowing hair, shirtless, and a snake around his shoulders!

[mattyv1908]

Our 'defensive' line up can't make a lay up and is allowing wide open looks at 3.

When does Williams admit they're not just bad offensive players, they're bad basketball players in general?

[muhoops1]

Derrick Wilson allowing STJr to break the press.  Very smart move by our floor general.  Greg Anthony is reinforcing VU's high BB IQ while implying he feels MU plays stupid.  I have to agree...we love the timeline, sideline or any part of the court that acts as another defender.  Dribble to the corner, get doubled and then turn it over.  Brilliant coaching.

This team would be lucky to win a game in the NIT

[MUrugger]

This team looks "one and done" for whatever post-season action they might stumble into, BET, NIT...

[Galway Eagle]

This is not the Jake Thomas that we need in the game right now

[GooooMarquette]

LOL - just can't acknowledge how awful this team is with Derrick running the point and being zero threat to shoot a jump shot.

Not disagreeing about Burton.

As for your suggested PG, I won't comment.

[madtownwarrior]

Well George Washington did beat George Mason that has to help our NIT chances right?

I am not sure this Marquette team that is showing today wins again this season

[GoldenWarrior11]

Well, at least Burton looks good.

[marquette09]

Maybe burton should play more?

[BM1090]

Well - it's win the BET or out.

Nope.

[Nevada233]

Just leave burton out there. Jamil is playing lost.

[NersEllenson]

Burton...because the guy is the first guy to get an opportunity to get into a flow besides Gardner and Mayo....well said Greg Anthony - Buzz kept him on the floor for 5 straight possessions.
