4 top 25 wins from a program that has never won an ncaa tournament game? You’re the reason we had Mike Riley. 

Nope. I still believe Solich should have been retained and would love to have seen Moe, or Danny, or Tim get more of a chance, but I can believe that 6 game losing streaks require more than 2 good games to prove Coach Hoiberg is doing the job.

If a duck fouls on a court painted like a forest does it count?

Nebraska hunted the Ducks tonight. I'm glad we withstood the gauntlet of 8 on 5.

I know analytics point to the merits of the 3pt barrage, but give me some mid-range and drives.

One fan, only one fan was mad at us.  Called my son and idiot, but not to his face.  He was good all night, until he knew they lost...oh well.

So their arena holds like 12,400 ish meaning there were over 4,500 seats open.  The attendance was bigger than I thought but I was watching the game and could hear individual fans cheering.  There was no environment there at all, was just kind of shocking to me for a top 25 team in a top league

I don’t remember their name on top attendance sheets either the past few years.

Agreed but 10 of those were between hoiberg and Berke with what seemed like all of them wide open looks so idk how you don’t take those….and I’m not for sure who else could be taking them for that matter

I want Andrew to just pull a three.  His stroke doesn't look bad

The fans I talked with are not very happy with the team or Dana.  It was an older crowd mixed with family.  Their were not a lot of students.  The facility itself was excellent and sight lines and leg room were awesome.  Yes, a lot of empty seats. Looked to me that it was 2/3 rds full.

Side note, my wife won their half-time bingo contest. Shared by one other winner.  Sooo, some coin will be coming her way.

Dana's never has been a particularly likable guy but he's won 20+ games every single season he's been there. Maybe another coach could do more with Oregon's resources but be careful what you wish for
