  1. Man what a brutal day. Pacers and Huskers very promising seasons. oladipo and Copeland done. FML.
  2. they want the basketball far more than we do
  3. obvious missed travel on the big fella before the foul
  4. Ask yourself. Would Cassius Winston have been on the bench during an entire 15-0 run or whatever the hell it was, and would have izzo never called a time out?
  5. We need to play a simple 2-3 zone.
  6. Watson on the bench during this entire run. No time outs. What in the bloody hell could possibly be going through Miles mind?
  7. It is incredible how bad we are at developing shooting. I have seen enough. Still hope we go on a run, but will hope Miles is gone at the end of the year somehow irregardless.
  8. yep. cope should have stopped and so should have he
  9. Na, he landed awkwardly. That is contact.
  10. and it is exactly what we shouldn't be doing right now. This is ludicrous.
  11. Vegas has us losing about one out of every 3.5 times. We cannot have this be that one.
  12. I get this part of it for sure. Thinking we can overcome it, as we are equally desperate. If so, it is best Purdue won, but this is a concern for me as well.
  13. We led this game by 13. We made a couple substitutions, never called a time out and it disappeared in a blink of the eye. It was awful that Miles didn't call time out multiple times during this run, let alone zero times.
  14. How well we match up with them doesn't change the fact that we play them twice and Ohio St. once though as far as computers are concerned. We certainly need to get something going. We cannot lose again Saturday.
  15. Gotcha. I am looking at it from the standpoint that our computer stuff will benefit by the Purdue win since we play them twice and Ohio St. one time.
  16. Why did we need them to beat Purdue?
  17. I think you are underestimating our basketball facilities. It is cyclical though so we will migrate down over time.
  18. For me, it doesn’t change it. This is tough as deep down I know he is very unlikely to take us to great heights(oddly this unique blend could go on a run with variance running in our favor), especially on a consistent basis. I also want us to win so damn bad I root like hell for the guy. If we win a game, an extension will come. I don’t think that is likely to be a move that puts us in an optimal position. There is a decent chance a coaching move makes us worse as well, but I think it is a risk I am willing to take. If if there was a way to go on a tourney run and Miles wanting to take another job, that is perfect end game as I see it.
  19. I am not necessarily in the Camp of win a game I want a long extension. 32 coaches do it every year. Just because we have never done it before, doesn’t make it some incredible accomplishment. If he isn’t a guy that can consistently get us there, consistently show an ability to elevate us in close ones, consistently show an ability to develop players(which is critical here), etc. we ought to move on if there is a hire we are confident could to better and confident we can get. This is is a very tricky situation. While I wish I was in the position to make the decision, I don’t envy those that are.
  20. Perfect world would be running great on the variance of college basketball, making final 4, Tim becoming a hot commodity and moving on, and us getting a better coach since the job would be perceived well:)
  21. Lets keep it level headed fellas. Everyone is pissed. Rightfully so. Lets remember that we have the best message board around. Let's be thankful for that.
  22. One problem with Miles philosophy, (which I generally am on board with, knowing we need to do things a little different here to be great) is that he is very uncomfortable coaching a bigger team. At CSU when they were very good they has like a 6-7 post as their best rebounder. Extremely small team. That is a hard recipe to take on the road in the Big 10.
  23. Here is the deal. We have some good pieces. We are soft. We are not well coached. We can beat most teams in the nation on a given day. We are a tourney team. This is the ceiling under Miles. It is frustrating as he is the one that got these pieces. He just cannot coach them without Smith unfortunately. Lets stick with them and hopefully we can get in the dance and win a damn ballgame. At this point going to be hard to get away from the 8-9 line which will make things very tough to make any type of run.
  24. got up 12 or 13 got lazy didn't call time out and they erased it in 3 minutes. That was the game.
