VC Who

[tower912]

1.   Breathe everybody
2.   Great to see the freshmen get run and contribute.    Going to need even more tomorrow.    Theo John = Grimm Reaper
3.   The defense wasn't bad, even giving up that many points.   MU was generally in the right spot, doing the correct rotations, and contesting consistently. 
4.   The big 3 do it again.   
5.  Really need Cal to push Wichita.    The worst thing that can happen for MU is for Wichita to be able to rest their starters the last 10 minutes. 
6.  Hauser is quite the stat sheet stuffer.   
7.  Haanif looked pretty good.   Much more comfortable at today's pace.   
8.  VCU pressure forced a few turnovers, but it didn't really disrupt MU. 
9.   Take it.   Go rest.   Do it all again tomorrow.

Good win.  We weren't perfect.  But we played darn good ball in a very important game.  Take it.  Hit the beach.

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Very happy to see all of the freshman make positive contributions.  Elliott really has some impressive length - I think he can be a nice defensive stopper as he gains more experience next season and beyond.

Love this Non-Con SOS now

Regarding #8, outside of the first five or so minutes, I thought the pressure didn't have hardly any impact on the game.  Maybe it made them play faster than they should have but MU handled it well.

The freshmen were good!  Theo is going to be a beast.  Elliott may not end up much of a scorer but he really can defend.  Cain had flashes as well.

By the one, after that one possession of zone, I don't need to see it again.

Fun game.  Wichita will be tough but whatever.

[tower912]

No, MU isn't perfect.    At one point in the second half, there was a RS Sophomore, Sophomore, and 3 frosh on the floor.   It is going to get sloppy.   But MU survived and everybody got run.   

 For the life of me, I cannot understand the Haanif hate during today's game.   His play was solid 90% of the time.    Yeah, he made a couple of dumb plays.    His dumb plays are no better or worse than everybody else's dumb plays.    It seems every fanbase needs a player to scapegoat.    HC was just fine today.

I don’t know who I’m happier for.....Brew or the team!

One could argue that the worst thing could happen is to play Cal. Im sure Brew would agree. It would definitely help our chances to play ND the the finals but I would rather play Wichita and then at worst play Michigan

The hate was during 1 BRUTAL stretch. Like bad for a 5th grader type brutal.

I don't think the hate continued for him.

Woo is slowly, slowly integrating the freshmen to playing time and today they contributed in many ways.  This should help during the course of Big East play.

I started watching when he had two dumb plays in a row - a 3 and getting stuffed. But outside of that, he played a solid game. Credit where credit is due.

Also,

Our 2 pt offense was great.

[MomofMUltiples]

I don’t know, I just think there are a lot of scoopers who just can’t enjoy watching basketball. The bar keeps moving - we’re losing, to we can’t shake this close score, to WHY AREN’T WE BLOWING THEM OUT?

Everybody enjoy this W. It was what we needed after last week.

[Herman Cain]

The big 3 with 64 and the rest of the team stepped up and gave quality effort.

I continue to believe we will be 3rd in the Big East and make it to second weekend of tournament.

For his sake, I hope Cal doesn't pull off an upset.

It's like they are expecting basketball perfection from these guys.  Just enjoy it.

I love our team, but this is suppose to be in teal right?

I predicted 4th...but depends if some other BE team steps up...11-7 sounds like us (4th)....12-6/13-5 sounds like 3rd.  Could be?

I think the biggest win of the day was getting Jay Bilas on the broadcast instead of Dan Dakich.

Preach!

[Goose]

I did not see any of the game, but nice win by the team. I would like to add, I heard Wojo on with Homer and thought it was A+ interview by Wojo. He sounded great and broke things down very well. Best I have heard in a post game interview.

[muwarrior69]

Sacar can really take it to the hoop. I still think we'll struggle with some teams, but today sure looks promising. Can't wait for Frohling to join the team.

[avid1010]

Howard killed it with his floaters...makes him so do hard to guard.  Thought Hauser continued to look good and his game has developed way beyond just a shooter.  Enjoy watching him on D, rebound, and move off the ball.  HC was just fine.  Sacar did some good things...as did the freshmen...who also reminded us they are freshmen.  Theo is a man down low....will be fun to see if he can develop more of an offensive game as his years progress and they look to him more.  Fun game.

... and the ESPN guys giving the game end report were choking on every word as Marquette didn't win this game as much as VCU lost it.
