What a comeback... Great to see GRIT and defense generating offense!

That is the cuse we want back.

Anyone else glad game threads disappear right after the game?

A win is a win. They have a lot to work on. Good night.

There’s just so much to say. I’m just so happy for these guys. Gonna be wiiiild on the Hill tonight!

Feels really good to be on the right side of one of those. At the end of the day, regardless of everything, the team dug in and never quit. Hopefully this is a launching pad.

They always do. The game thread archive is on the top.

 

[DaCuse]

I knew Red could pull it off!

 

[IthacaMatt]

Well, I'm glad they won. The defense was terrible at timesm the rebounding was also bad at times. But they found a way to win. Progress.

Yikes

I honestly cannot believe it. They didn't show any signs of life, until they did. We will need to try that press more often. Plenty of guys on the bench to fill in for tired guys.

I'm not following the team that closely as of yet. Heck forgot to check the score in the Syracuse game as I was tied up in other things. At 9:08, I remembered there was a game and saw the score was 78-75 at the time, and thought the board might not be that happy. -- but didn't realize the spread on this one was actually only 5 - so it was just good to come back and win.

Hopefully I remember to tune in next game.

The boys flight to Hawaii was going to be about as pleasant as Tom Hanks' in Cast Away if we ended up losing that game by 20. But now it should be totally different. Hope that comeback brings the team together in a meaningful way.

All the Red haters can stuff it this team has to play transition ball to win, and the press is going to be the key. Hope we can find another shooter to go with Bell and Taylor.

So all of you Debbie Downers. My LGO!!! worked while you were all complaining your butts off so much that I had to leave the thread.
LGO!!!
LGO!!!
Have a little faith.

A win is a win but Red looked a bit in over his head tonight. He will get better I have no doubt about that but some defensive decisions and substitution patterns didn't make any sense whatsoever.

Thank freaking god we won that game. Was great to see the guys grow a set of nuts and do what they needed to do. Hopefully getting booed off the court was the wake up call they needed. I have no idea what the rest of the season looks like.

OUTSTANDING FINISH!
So happy this team rallied strong to beat Colgate.
We know the team has intensity and energy when it has to have it
and that’s a good sign.

game threads are fun and i don't understand people who want them to be calm and proper

Press defense should be the base defense...not a last resort, imo

No doubt. This was important for many reasons. It also helps their trust and confidence in Red.

Wow! Discuss.

I think we should have stormed the court! Exorcised some major demons tonight!!!

 

[FrancoPizza]

I’m going to pretend we just beat Tennessee and enjoy the win

Obviously it wasn't all good tonight but I think the team now has something of an identity and knows what their strengths are.

Nothing beats the drama of a game thread. They're hilarious.

 

[gmacfor3]

The team pulled together and played as a unit the last 15 mins or so. Hopefully they will learn from both the first half and the second half, continue to grow as a team and drop the individualism. Obviously it won’t happen overnight, but Autry may need to tighten the reins as far as what he’s allowing attitude wise. Let’s build off this!

 

[OrangeinBoston]

Clearly, this team needs Red to light a fire under their A$$es. Every night.
