Certainly nothing to get excited about; I yearn for the days of relevance on the national stage.

I know its a win but how is it not an embarrassment to score ONE point in 10 minutes...smh!

[Clickclack]

are we still a D1 team?

I have one question.... WHAT HAPPENED TO LOGAN?????? This kid was money throughout the beginning of the OOC schedule. What the heck happened?

[Doc]

Bold strategy to take a knee at the ten minute mark. We'll see how this plays out for them...

I have this powerful belief that we are destined to mediocrity.

 

Realizing that it is part of the business structure, do I continue to root for Brown and the program, knowing that if he manages to turn things around that he will either leave for a better offer, or leverage us for more money? Or do I forget my allegiances and root for another poor season so a fresh mind and a fresh look can be introduced to the program?

 

Look at what Coach Abe has done in half a season without any of her own players...made the program relevant.

If you are Brown and have aspirations for a higher level coaching job, then after ten seasons you should be running the AE, especially after two titles. This mediocrity is unacceptable. I only wish I had the passion to write more.

I thought UA played great until the last quarter of the game, so I am going to pretend the last five minutes didn't happen and try to be encouraged by how well they played throughout most of it.

if there was such a thing as an embarrassing loss...this was it! Team is flat out not progressing, disappointing!

Funny how I forgot it was a 5pm start, turned on with 10 minutes left in the game, and

they score 1 point. I wish I had watched the first 3 quarters, and maybe I'd have some positives

to balance out that garbage I just witnessed.

 

Do we even have revelance on the local stage???

 

Doc, too funny about the 'take a knee at the 10 minute mark' remark!

 

I'm not sure how anyone played for the first 3 quarters, but I saw nothing out of Ambrose.

Maybe somebody needs to remind him this is his senior year, that the team needs a strong leader,

and it's his last chance to go to the dance.

Maybe it's time for a pretty pink panty check.

Any players or coaches found wearing pretty pink panties can go have a seat on the bench.

 

How many 10 minute meltdowns have we witnessed over the years?

 

IMO, it's a leadership issue. I see talent on this team.

[Clickclack]

It's a road win, take it and run, shocking your head. No such thing as a bad road w. But Damn...

Replay will be available on espn.com (ESPN3)...likely not until tomorrow though.

Do you mean an embarrassing win?

 

And I think Jacob Iati is progressing - no 3s, no TOs, and great D on Dougher

Think you needed to see the whole game since Ambrose had 15 points and 14 rebounds

Agreed on Ambrose, his energy on the glass for second chance bounce sparked the run that put us up early. No agreement on Iati though. He didn't do anything bad... but the problem with this game wasn't doing things bad, it was an inability to make progress- which is what Jake brought to the table. Watts played very well in limited time in first half (fouls) even though his shot wasn't dropping, against penetrating lane. Actually also some very nice looks inside to Puk from Ambrose. A couple Puk made nice cuts but just couldn't deal with the little people in traffic. Work in progress, but it'd be nice to see some more progress in the last ten minutes not just the first thirty.
