Imagine if we had closed out Houston

Program vibe does a 180.

This is why the “hell yeah” thread pissed me off. I felt like we let a huge opportunity slip. Would be on the verge of a ranking

If we went 2-2 in these 4 games without freeman we’d be in really good shape. I think we’re still behind the 8 ball, but this was a monster win for the resume.

Idk. Losing by a million to allegedly good Iowa State woulda limited it to 90deg. Maybe 60

Yeah, we certainly have given ourselves a shot

I’m just happy we have a competitive team that I think can win on any given night.

We have athletes everywhere that are good players. The question will be how often can we overcome our weaknesses (questionable IQ on the court, still think Red isnt a great coach, and foul shooting).

So glad we came out with a W after the Vegas run. Our guys are tested and I’m excited to see how we improve as a team.

Absolutely

If we can win the next 5 games and go into the ACC at 10-3, who wouldn’t have signed up for that?

Mine and several others' Iggy OOC prediction.

We would be ranked, no doubt.

Close out Houston, maybe we get a different matchup.

Or play differently on Tuesday and Wednesday. That game mentally depleted us.

Good point

1 FT!!!

Yep. 10-3 was my Iggy prediction in the non conference. Most people felt we needed to go 11-2 to be in a position for a ncaa tourney bid. My feeling was that 10-3 would be enough because I predicted that we’d go 12-6 in the ACC (bullish, I know). I’m not sure how I feel about that if Donnie doesn’t return. We really need to get him back and healthy. And we need to beat all the mid majors we play this month. St Joseph’s, Hofstra and Northeastern are all decent, higher rated in KenPom than the first four that we played in November.
