Another double digit run before a timeout is called.  Unbelievable.  

 

Horse shit coaching.  

 

Can we share some blame on the players who haven't been able to shoot a basket in 3 weeks?

Hopeless!  Hate to say it, but we look hopeless and helpless!

 

Sad to say, but I think so, too. We're just a lost team. It's like they're defending themselves. Whatever they're doing in practice to deal with shooting confidence is entirely not working.

Just let it go all the way to media time out Tim, just like when Ohio St ended the game with Watson on the bench the whole time that night.  Mind boggling how stupid he is.  Just a very poor strategic coach.  

 

Nevermind.  He couldn't draw up a good set to get us a hoop anyway.

Not for timeout strategy being garbage.  That’s how you get players out of slumps and refocus them offensively.  

[Cazzie22]

Leaving plenty of points at the ft line.

No one should be safe from criticism at this point.

good lord. and watson passes on an open 3. again. I mean, we're just no threat to shoot at all. 

Get watson off the floor, his confidence is destroyed.

[tcp]

and free throws, too. because this isn't going to change, is it. 

[tcp]

yay! Palmer makes a basket thingee! And a layup, to boot!

[Cazzie22]

Our set offense does not provide scoring opportunities.  Why don’t we run?

[demone]

Welp...the 1st 4 minutes were pretty good. 

[tcp]

20 points in a half. lol watson. 

 

this is just......good god. it's Hoops-ageddon. 

[HuskerFever]

It's amazing that we're only down 8...

[Crush78]

When is the last time anybody caught & shot in rhythm? No confidence in any shot

We had a three on one  break earlier, failed to get to the hoop, turned down two open jumpers, forced a shot, missed the rebound and got nothing

Maryland's not playing well, either. They've been struggling the last couple of weeks. 

 

If that changes at all in the 2d half, this coul get really ugly.

During our five-game losing streak, our shooting percentages would have placed us, among 351 Division I teams:

• 351st in overall FG shooting
• 350th in 3-point shooting
• 350th in FT shooting

Tonight in the first half, we shot worse than that in every area.

 

So freaking awful at basketball.

I’m at the game and numerous, albeit a sparse number of people around me are vocally encouraging Glynn to pull his head out - guy has zero confidence.

Glynn with no confidence I’m at the game and numerous, albeit a sparse number of people around me are vocally encouraging Glynn to pull his head out - guy has zero confidence.

Look at some of these passes, though. they're frequently offline. Not crisp. 

And yeah, no one thinks their shot is going in. You have to have tools to deal with that as a staff.

Anyone else ever feel like there tv is replaying a previous game? 

Watson struggling

missing free throws 

running no offense 

[huskerbaseball13]

Everyone agrees this team has talent. Yet, our offense is putrid. 

 

Whats the issue? I’ll go with the guy who has produced mediocre to bad shooting teams his entire tenure.

I’d rather watch us play Amir for 20 minutes in the second half. Maybe he knows how to take it hard to the hoop atleast
