It didn't help that the guy we played Hack-a-Shaque on shot 80% last night. In fact any opponent who has not hit a 3 point shot all year will make at least half a dozen when he plays us. Coaches should begin to start their least confident players against the Huskers this year. 

Cockburn 4-of-8 from the line in the first half against Wisconsin. Of course, the Illini still up by 11 at the break. 

 

On edit: Here's what I'd love to see, with the probability we're the No. 14 seed in the tournament. We beat either Minnesota or PSU in the first-round game, then get matched up with No. 6 Wisconsin and beat them in the second-round game. That would be a tasty little pickle on what otherwise has been a shit sandwich of a season.

Lat tied for most minutes tonight, and he took 3 shots, and was 0-1 from 3.  It's not like we aren't running actions for him, I see us trying to set him up, but teams know he's a shooter so they play tight coverage on him in part because they know he's not much of a threat to drive.  

 

Some shooters need only a tiny window to get a shot off, but not Lat I'm afraid.  For his shot to have a chance he needs space to set up, step into it and release.  Whenever he tries a quick pull of the trigger it misses badly.  

 

I love Lat and will always root for him, but I'm just not seeing him as Big Ten level talent.    :(
