MU/Butler Game Thread

Play defense, make 3s.

Won by 15, was never in doubt the last 12 minutes, and the game thread reads like we got smoked.

The game thread looks like that during good seasons.

Need some place to discuss the two headed hydra NORMILTON.

Some of you leave it to beaver     guys should start a "good vibes only " game thread.

I know. It's a me issue for letting the negativity annoy me.

We shouldn't have to see that again.  I'm still recovering.

It's definitely not just you.

After today I don't think a 8 or 9 seed is out of the question.

Pretty sure you have no idea how it works.

Better question is the NIT a possibility now?

Shaka wasn't wrong about Ben moving better.  10 boards plus he was the primary defender against Ajayi when both were in the game.  And Ajayi had a dismal game offensively.

This was my first MU game in attendance since the Wojo era. What a blast!!

The team still isn't where we want it to be, but it is so much better than it was a month or so ago. Glad the young guys continue to progress as at least there is a little something to build on if they stick around.

The Crean speech at halftime was fantastic. I can see why he was a really good recruiter. Terrific experience overall today.

Last I looked, Ajayi had 18 rebounds. We could use some guys that have stats like that in a dismal game.

Gold is a very solid interior defender and has become a good rebounder. When he goes out, it's a big drop off for interior D.

Agree. Talked to him Friday. He really enjoys being back and quite a few of his players were here. Nice reception from the crowd.

Watched the DVR -  nice shooting by Stevens, Bizjack with a bunch of Bizcrap going in from everywhere, the Hamilton 2 feet from the basket missing by 4 feet past the rim was special...

.

The Caedin 3 footer that went 3 feet over the rim is an indication of a psychological issue. Even with his limitations.

Yep. 

Special is one way to describe it. There are others.

I thought our ceiling was 4-16 in the league.  I was wrong.  I think besides Nova, the rest of our remaining road games are winnable, we should dispose of DePaul at home, and could hit lightning in a bottle vs St J. or UCONN.

Having Crean's name up there with Al's and Wade makes me want to throw up in my mouth....

Crean is, was, and will always be a prick...

I remember at the rally at the Hotel for a team/alumni/supporter event at the Final 4 and he showed his face for like 10 seconds.   And pretty much dissed the event....Total dick.....

Shorty before he lost by 50 and then subsequently ran off to Indiana.....

Some of us don't forget....

Were the Harbaugh brother-in-laws there?   That speaks volumes if they weren't.....

Crean probably had a 5 pm flight to San Fran....
