gosh Ousmane Barro bled for Marquette, feel so bad for him, to watch him grow as a player, from his freshman days of just being poor to now, he really stepped up his game, whether people don't want to admit about it, that picture really hurts to see.

[Thomas' Danish Delight]

It's absolutely heart-wrenching.

But he should most definitely be proud of what he's accomplished, cuz I for damn sure am proud of him. 

MU would not be nearly the team it is without OUUUUUUUUUUUSmane Barro.  Much love for him, the resta the seniors, and the whole team.

Ooze seems like a great kid and i'm sure he'll have a great future and represent MU well.  Hopefully the three amigos and Burke see this picture and realize that they don't want to go out like this next year.  I really think this loss hurts for them and they'll carry a chip on their shoulder into next year.  Good things ahead for MU!

Ousmane Barro....it's been a pleasure watching you develop over the last 4 years....you've made the entire Marquette community proud.  Best of luck to you!

another one...

You definitely had to feel for those guys.  After the final play, both Fitz and McNeal were on the floor in a heap of disappointment when James picked them both up off the floor.  Nice to see.

I forced myself to watch the first half of the UCLA game before returning to the team's hotel.  I arrived to see a few players with their families.  One was still being consoled outside.  James was also out there supporting his teammate and taking some pictures with some fans.  

When Crean arrived, he was greeted by his kids, then made a bee line for the elevator.  He was drained.

Great game.  Great effort.  Damn Lopez.

Oh God, I literally want to cry. Just heart-breaking photos.

Thank you Ouse, you make Marquette proud!

The loss was rough, and I managed to keep my mind off of it for a couple of hours until I saw that picture in an article online about 20 minutes ago. I truly hope Ouse realizes that he's meant a lot to this school over the past 4 years!

[timinatorx3]

these pics are tough to look at. i really appreciate the effort all of our guys gave this year. they should be proud.

[MDMU04]

Oh man.  Looking at that picture feels like a kick right to the gut.  That is horrible.  I wasn't feeling all that bad about this game until I saw that.

What a piece of photography though.  That pic of Ousmane sitting on the bench staring off to nowhere really tells you all you ever need to see about the kind of effort and heart that TC can get his guys to pour into their time at MU.

Man, I really feel for Ouse.  Wow.

[drewm88]

Ugh. TC should keep that photo and break it out anytime the team is lagging next year. Nobody wants to see a career end with a photo like that. I wish all the best to Ousmane. It's not going to be the same without him on the team/around campus.

[Mayor McCheese]

you leave a picture like that in the locker room... I'm guessing Ouse meant a lot to this team, a picture like that lights a fire under the players for next year.

[77ncaachamps]

This also says a lot: If you want to foul someone, DON'T LET THEM GET THE BASKET! (Too bad Fitz won't be able to practice that next year.)

[Daniel]

Oooze - we love ya!  We loved watching you play, and we loved chanting OoooooOOOOze!!!!

We wish you nothing but the best in your life - you were first class all the way at Marquette!

GO OOOze!  Do good!

[Big Papi]

Looking at the pic of the winning shot, makes you wonder how that shot went in.

[mosarsour]

God bless you Ooze. I hope you find success in whatever you choose. You're all class in my book.

[Mayor McCheese]

Looking at the pic of the winning shot, makes you wonder how that shot went in.

the one on here isn't the winning shot, but yes Ive seen that picture, a very awkward shot by Brook Lopez, however he lived on that side of the paint, so I'm not surprised he made it...

Stanford... most boring offense that was effective?  Lopez brother on the block, guards around the three line, pass till you get a look to pass to the Lopez brothers, pass to them, they shoot.  There it was, and it beat us 

[Buzz Williams' Spillproof Chiclets Cup]

Heart-wrenching stuff. Especially when as it's been said before, where Ooze was coming from, where he was four years ago talent-wise, and knowing that an NBA ticket is probably not in his future.

Knowing that was your last game, probably ever. Man, I'm depressed now.
