Grow Up

[Dienerfor3]

It's unbelievably frustrating, I know. And to devote 3 hours to that to have it end that way, and have many frustrating things happen along the way...along with the entire season, I know it is incredibly frustrating. But grow up. They're student-athletes representing the school as best as they can. They fought hard tonight and kept coming back every time they were knocked down

[jesmu84]

well said.

Correction. Certain players kept coming back.


Only to be pulled down by the worst back court in Division 3 history and most notably the PG.

I agree.  

All blame and frustration should be directed at Buzz and only Buzz.  And I'm sure he would tell you as much.

Comments like that why I made the post anyway^

Exactly. All we did was sit on a couch and complain.

[ronald dragon]

You hit the nail on the head.

Am I frustrated?  Of course.  But am I going to rip on kids who played their hearts out, even if didn't have a good game?  No I won't sink that low

[setyoursightsnorth]

If the school is blowing more than $300,000 on each of these players during the season, I would expect more out of them and to not be dumb.

It's one thing being an idiot in class, but that last minute...

Bingo!

Spot on.  Extremely frustrating, but without Jake hitting that huge 3 where would we have been.  Without D. Wilson's defense where would we be.  Extremely frustrating, but the entire year has been that way so pause before posting negative comments about specific players.  They certainly battled and clawed back each time they were down.

It was a hell of a game...guys played their hearts out.  Far and away the most entertaining game of the year.  Obviously, an extremely frustrating ending....but hard fought.

+1000

They played a great game and kept coming back. But for a little home cooking by the refs, they might have pulled it out.

Um... Cotton had 25 points, 7 rebounds, and 9 assists.

I'll tell you right now, we would be in no worse position that's forsure.

Now without Todd Or Davante. Were lucky to beat Navy.

[ChicosBailBonds]

Guys played hard, never gave up.....tremendous heart and guts.  Sucks to lose, always has and always will.


Go MU

[WellsstreetWanderer]

Our kids did their best. Just ran out of gas at the end and made some mistakes.  Most of us knew that free throws would beat us the second half

[Windyplayer]

Good post. That damn surge in emotion clouds the thinking part of the brain for a few minutes after a game like this. Most are best served staying away from their keyboard for 15-20 minutes after the game to regain some composure. I'm usually no exception.

Good teams find a way to win these.  Today was a microcosm of the season.  Jake should know better.  We are who we are... A team who 's starters scored <75% of our points..... Starters who don't put up even 50% of what our bench does. This one is on the coach again

The Warriors are who we thought they were!

We had such an advantage as far as depth, and what we should have had in the gas tank so to speak, as Providence is so thin..has such little depth...Cotton never comes out for a minute...unbelievable player.

Blame Buzz, not the kids.

[madtownwarrior]

laughable that people still defend the MU PG position -  held Cotton to 25 while scoring 1 - awesome....

Um... Cotton had 25 points, 7 rebounds, and 9 assists.

Here's the thing...everyone laughs at the grayheads in the stands...do you realize how much fucking money they pay for their seats?  They have earned the right to bitch about the play this year and the job their seven figure coach has done....
