While the call was bullshit why the heck are we even slapping at the ball on a shot from there.
True, but on my replay I didn't even see any contact. No need to blow your whistle 75' from the basket with less than a second left in the half.
I was watching and listening to Neal and Kenny and we all three saw a foul. Best thing is just let him shoot. He's 80 feet from the basket and we had momentum going in.

Yeh, you convinced me. It was a great call. Go Bulldogs!

Looks like Drake adjusted and we just reverted back to our same old selves.

Yep since obviously only your opinion is correct I'll call off my dogs.

I would love for us to move the ball like Drake next season... makes the game look easier

Not an ideal time for a patented Prohm scoring drought.

Nothing left in the tank - you can't just play 7 all season coach.

runner67 · March 03, 2023, 07:57:40 PM

That's okay. We'll be back!

at least it wasn't a blowout but you can tell our guys were tired.

Coach has to develop a bench.

Why didn't we see any Sam or Justin to give our guys a bit of a break?

bjhracer · March 03, 2023, 08:07:21 PM

Really a tough draw with the seed. Drake is the best team in this tourney.

That question won't get answered. It's been asked all season.

Evv you're like EF Hutton buddy, people should be listening to you. I notice you're spot on a lot.

Anyway, I thought both teams were who they are tonight down the stretch. That's a great defensive team. Ready for a new look next season.

Even their coach just said we ran out of gas just now

Why do all the other coaches comment on our team's flaws and how they beat us but our staff no listen?

I predicted 17-13 record and 1 win in the MVC tournament. Just can't replace 12 and expect it be a smooth transition.

If you figure out the answer to that question, please let me know.

You called it. They hung in for a while in H2, but ran out of gas. We got some bad calls and some non-calls that they would give the MVP on the other side, but we started losing a step late.

Sam Murray and Morgan and one or two others for FIVE minutes would have been great for the starters. I do not get his reasoning on this. The entire league knows he's only gonna throw 7 at you, even if those 5 played the night before. That's not coaching, that's cruising.

Proud of the turnaround in effort in this tournament. Looking forward to next season.
