That was great.

iMac’s favorite moment was Jake Groves scoring 30 on Kansas at Eastern Washington

Reece fave moment was UVA’s NC run

Lots of love and respect for Minor. iMac’s roommate on the road. Says he’s a great guy and teammate.

I’d be nervous as hell too based on that last 10mins of nc state and having to sweat bricks about even making tourney. They’re gonna have to loosen up fast in the first few minutes of the game for us to stand a chance

I don’t know what happens after Tuesday but if one thing comes out of Dayton, I want it to be at least one NCAAT win since 2019.

Tony says he thinks he made a mistake not using the fouls at the end of the NC State game. Was gonna call timeout but didn’t want to ice Isaac.

Question was about TB being excited for iMac to have another chance after maybe feeling like he was the guy who let every one down.

ā€œHe didn’t. He played great that game and so did Reece. I believe I made a mistake at the end of the game. We had 2 I think fouls to give but we had decided not to foul.ā€

Good on TB. It was definitely a mistake given the situation. Glad to hear him acknowledge it.

TB talking about the disappointment his senior year at WGB. Team was at a sports bar with 200 people expecting to see their name and it was devastating to be left out.

ā€œIf the committee did selections like they do now we’d have been a lock no doubt.ā€

Tony seems shook with their cutting actions says he told Boeheim (who is doing radio for the game) ā€œI wish I had your zone defenseā€ to deal with all their off ball movement… so screwed

Tony is so good at these. Warm and friendly, generous when talking about others, spins little folksy tales about the old days. Master class.

Makes me think we’ll see less Minor than I thought and maybe less Blake too, maybe run the Reece-Isaac-Rohde-Ryan-Jake lineup as they’re the most sound when it comes to defensive positioning.

Yup CTB is like a coach from a time forgotten the way he holds court with these scrums. Tell a story flash a smile or a grin tell a tale about growing up or being the under dog.

Pure masterclass

I love that H&T is reading into visual and verbal cues that aren’t there. But maybe that clairvoyance will help us land a Candyland recruit.

The small, fast, cutting teams have shredded us up. And we don’t have Kihei here to defend the little guys :confused:

Probably an obvious point, but in looking at their schedule, nearly every loss came in rock-fight games where they scored in the 50s or low 60s. SDSU (good D, obviously) beat them in a low-scoring affair by holding them to 55.

I have no idea whether we will do that, but if any team CAN it is us. That’s at least a little encouraging.

If we had Reece against UMBC, they wouldn’t have either.

One remark from that press conference that stood out for me: Isaac saying that if his missed FT had cost the seniors a trip to the NCAA tournament, that would have hung with him for a long time. Sports can be so cruel like that (unless you’re the type who everything just washes right off you, which you should try to be lol). Relieved it worked out.
