Was really embarrassing. Some people should maybe try to find a different outlet for their frustrations.

Hard to call those people fans, honestly. Things were grim, no doubt. But be a damn fan. They’ll all be in he bandwagon when MU goes 3-1 in the next 4. Even though they shouldn’t be allowed to.

Even though I could not watch the game because I don't get FS Wis, I never even considered going onto the game thread.

I did jump on at the end to give support to Wojo and the guys, but I won't go back and read what our resident arsewipes were saying.

Fans can be critical, of course. But personal attacks and general douchebaggery ... that's the opposite of being fans.

Why should anyone be?? I would hope, they expect wins..if you expect them, no reason to comment on them, right??

I didn't post in that thread, but MU looked so horrendous through ~25 minutes of play, enough to very much doubt not just the next ~5 games, but the next 35.   

The final 15 minutes was miraculous.

On my part, frustration that it felt like Wojo was over matched in one of the bigger moments of the year. Seeing Howard go down (for potentially an extended period of time) added to that. Howard is one of the only players in basketball capable of carrying a team and coaches alike.

Still not convinced Wojo is a tremendous Xs and Os coach, and one half won't change that. But that was a hell of a second half, and fight I didn't see coming heading into half. This felt like Butler 2.0 before half. Kudos to Wojo for making adjustments to get them off balance. Hope he can carry the progress forward

As I've recommended before, get laid, even if you have to pay $500 for it. You desperately need a life.

I never give up on their games, but this was satisfying for a lot of us.  Wojo's in-game adjustments were brilliant this game.  It also shows how sometimes the team over-relies on Howard and Rowsey. 

A lot needed to go right to turn this game around.  But for many of us clamoring for zone, it was satisfying.  Marquette not only was successful, but it allowed them to have more energy on offense.  The rebounding disparity was huge.

Some of you guys are totally consumed by what you view as other’s “negativity”. I’ve read more posts calling out “trolls” than I’ve read about the actual game! Kinda funny

We were down in the game chat too but FC kept us up...and Newsie's drink reports.  Wojo seems his best when he throws out the game plan. Strong performance by the lads.

soooo the only time to post is when they lose? Sounds like you're a very solid MU supporter.

What’s sadder is you posting about how other people were posting in a posting after a win.

How are you so constantly baffled that fans on a message board can be frustrated and vent anger after/during losses?

I have one thank you...so, you have the mindset that they will/should lose every game?? If so, perhaps this isn't the right hobby for you. I expect W's, because ummm, you know that's why they play the games isn't it??

I don’t mind negative posts. I mind the mindless insults. It really is embarrassing.

Yeah. I mean I could care less. No idea why that would affect you at all. Particularly to the degree that you would post more about that than you would enjoy this win

So why can’t you comment on wins?  Do you think this board exists only to complain?

Had to watch online (thanks for the youtube link, whoever put it up!) and things looked grim when Markus went down. Big win for Wojo, the team and the program - they had every reason to mail it in down 13 in the second half with Markus out of action but refused to quit. McDermott nailed it in his huddle with about 7 minutes remaining when he told his team "Those guys in blue aren't 'supposed to' win but they want it more than you do!" The boys were warriors tonight!
