[brfrad]

How can we not get a big guy like Payne to shave people around and play bully ball.

Just so we can wait five more years before realizing the next guy is also a bum that we have to pay $30 million to leave

Yes.

 

I would hope Trev would want a crack at hiring his own guy.

 

Atleast I would hope so. How many losing seasons does Hoiberg deserve?

We miss the screening ability of Sam G and Walker.  Just saying...

This and their toughness. They were dudes. These guys aren't. 

[HuskerBB]

Why do you call that now when you have not called it the entire game?

[RedEyedFanatic]

Jesus, finally a call for the pulling on kt

[TourneyBound]

Garcia with no points and we are losing. This is not a good sign fellas

[Faux Mike Peltz]

Brice…..

I loved what we did and how we looked at the beginning of the year.  This is a completely different team and look currently.  We could still win this one… but the way we’ve played this half is embarrassing, unacceptable, and ridiculous.

 

In a year Fred needs to win and, for me personally, dance… this isn’t it.

[cornfed24-7]

#1 just owned our team

[HuskerBB]

Our big guys are just getting dominated around the basket.  A real welcome to the Big 10 and Power 5 basketball for Mast and Allick.

I think the Creighton game broke us 

[huskerbill85]

Is it too early to question if this is Fred's last season barring another February run?

[Huskerpapa]

Sorry this is simply a horrible loss.  We were outhustled and outplayed in the second half.  No excuse.  Their best player was out and we simply didn't are advantage.   Sad.

This times one trillion. Allick hustles but has hands of stone. Mast looks great against two directional schools but then shrinks considerably against power conference teams 

[NeeandMe]

I'm afraid we know how this ends. This team does not look like it will fight for its coach. 

[brfrad]

Everyone om the floor needs to be benched.

Or we are what everyone said we were.  7-0 frauds who only were undefeated because of who we played.

It's too cold here and no tradition.   The Nee years were our glory years

This is a bad Minnesota team playing without their best player 

[northwillriseagain]

No real ball movement the last 2 games. Defense that makes the teams we play more confident than they should be. Ugh…

Minnesota is no good.

Oh we have a tradition. It just sucks.

No passion.

Soft.  

 

Good night

Everyone always says that Miles “flash in the pan” year that ended with a huge run and us making the dance was the exception and not the norm.  Even though we probably should have danced again under Miles he at least made the NIT multiple times.

 

What if last year was Fred’s “flash in the pan” year that ended up with a decent run, 1st round loss to this Gopher team, and no post season.

 

This reminds me of the year after Tim’s flash in the pan.  If I remember right, we came out of the gates hot, were ranked at one point, and folded after a loss to Rhode Island maybe?
