UW's Brooks gets airborne and loses the handle on the ball, and it's a called a foul.

Such a disappointing team

Another drought from three. This team could use a shooter.

If I'm tracking the booth commentary properly, KJ Simpson has had 12 freethrow attempts in the first 8 conference games.

Hammond...what are you doing? Not your place to be leading the charge.
Just not very good
Gotta make a run in Vegas now
I guess you can win a road game with 22 turnovers.
Well that one was frustrating. We were all around terrible in the first half. Defense didn’t make enough stops in the second half. Tristan was pretty good, LOB did a lot of good things, KJ wasn’t very good, Hammond at least made up for the scoring missing from KJ and no Ruffin, but he struggled at times too. Nique was awful. Keion Brooks murdered us. Would’ve been nice to have a TO with 12 seconds left.
Not me. I'm out.
This team is soft, not one dawg among them. LL and KJ could get there, but it won't be enough this season. I'm even pessimistic about next season--don't see anything great unless LL, Hurlburt, and/or Diop surprise.
Very Quick (and depressing notes) from last night:
- Fast becoming Tad's worst year here ever. From the recruiting that put this squad together, to the in-game management, to the seemingly significant lack of coaching this group seems to get, we're lucky we have 11 wins.
- Cue the continual drumbeat. Clifford and Wright are absolutely not fit to play at this level. Terrible on both ends. So frustrating to watch each try to shade the player they're guarding to one side only to watch that player switch their dribble and blow past them. Not mention the lazy rotations, the inability to fight through screens, and on and on and on...And don't get me started on the fact that each find it hard to even DRAW IRON on shots. WTAF is that?!
- LOB continues to prove his worth. Good on him.
- Maybe we should NOW formally work on FTs in practice? Obviously UW does.
- Each week you can sense the crowd seems to be losing more and more patience/excitement for this team.
- Need to recruit a pure shooter. Hell, I don't care if he's a 5'6 260lb leper with one leg from Holyoke. If he can catch and shoot from distance on the regular, give him a scholly.
- Again, having a 6'5 SG defending 7 footers each week is getting old. That too is on Tad.
- It's time to play Hurlburt and Allen. Tad needs to quit being so stubborn and see what he actually has in these two.
- Hurts to say, but this is a low seed NIT team at best.

Ethan Wright is a pure shooter, FYI.
Fun Fact: Cheerleaders on the baseline visibly flinch and duck when he puts up a shot.
No ruffin = L, simple math
(I love Ruffin)
(I love Ruffin)
Needs to be a pure benchwarmer
1-3, 0-1, 2 pts
Of course, so should Nique:
2-5, 0-3, 4 pts
Tad needs to start Ruffin when he gets back. I'd honestly start Luke over Nique at this point.
Dealing with family stuff so I missed the first half. When I saw that he was out I decided not to watch unless we won. I'm sorry Lawson
I didn't know Ruff was out until about 3 minutes into the game when I looked over at the bench and saw he was in street clothes. It's not good when the guy who has been your most consistent shooter the last month is out against the most zone focused team in the conference.
