^ ^ ^ What he said,Uhhhh yes
There was little to no effort in this gonzaga game. It was winnable, idc.The effort the 2 games there was light years over the first 3 games we played.. Whether we ever figure out how to make shots will decide the future.
This ^^^^ And I'm really starting to get p'd off. We hung with 2 top teams for a good part of each game, or made several comeback type of runs. To me this is a positive and something to build on. Remember most of our Final Four teams started out with early loses. New coach, new system, new everything after many years, and I will take it.You guys are nuts.
We just played 2 top 15 teams in our first 5 games with a new coach. We’re not as bad as we looked. We got figuring out to do and notes to take from Maui.
We are what we looked like. That wasn’t an optical illusion.You guys are nuts.

I felt this way after the Tennessee game, but I don't think we hung with Gonzaga today whatsoever. A couple times in the second half we made it look interesting, and as soon as Gonzaga noticed that we thought we had a chance, they mashed the gas and left us in the dust as we resumed making the same mistakes and poor decisions that we had avoided for a few minutes of play.This ^^^^ And I'm really starting to get p'd off.

As you know, I try to be as fair and optimistic as anyone. Many things concern me more today than after yesterday's game: the Benny stuff, rebounding, playmaking, and bad inbounds plays are concerning. Hopefully, it was just a bad game. This tournament was always going to be a problem.This ^^^^ And I'm really starting to get p'd off. We hung with 2 top teams for a good part of each game, or made several comeback type of runs.

Beating the power 3 of UNH, Canisus and Colgate by a combined 27 was a sign.You guys are nuts.

Gonzaga’s not a powerhouse? Ok.We are what we looked like. That wasn’t an optical illusion.
Your own characterization was “bad.”
The hope is that we don’t remain as bad as we looked for very long.
It’s not like we were playing powerhouse teams. They’re ranked there because the state of the game is weak. There’s a way to lose, even to lose by 15-20, and not look inept in so many ways.
