the just released schedules were a flat-out statement that the B10 doesn't believe SOS will matter in playoff selection
MBB Open Thread vs Illinois
He is such a huge liability on the ball screen defense. He hard hedges too far and doesn't rotate back quick enough.
Don't leave Illinois THAT wide open for easy 3's.
Go Blue! Always!
Can we start a petition to ESPN to move dakich to the Big East. Don't know why he does a conferce where he has a clear bias.
But not sure I understand you reason. Of course he's going to do the conference where he's most familiar.
Also, it's a conference game...what does his bias towards the B1G have to do with anything?
He should be moved because he sucks. That's reason enough.
“True loyalty is that quality of service that grows under adversity and expands in defeat. Any street urchin can shout applause in victory, but it takes character to stand fast in defeat. One is noise — the other, loyalty.”
Stauskas missing some confidence right now. Passed up an open three. Gotta get that shooter's mentality going again.
CoE Class of 2007
Dakich is being brutally biased I'll admit it. It's funny because I know Dakich pretty well and he is actually a very nice person. I should ask him what his beef with Michigan is all about.
Is it just me or is Burke take about 5 steps leading up to that layup?
"Michigan Defense" is dominating everything, in every aspect of life. That's a rough definition.

Does anyone know if the players get to "wear in" these shoes to get comfortable with them? It seems to me bb players would have favorite shoes.
every day for conditioning or something? How is Mitch McGary so full of energy. It's amazing to see this 6'10" guy out-hustling EVERYBODY.
I love Greg Mattison

Mitch hedged too far on that screen and everything else opened up, risky decision that cost is 3 points :/
Blank.....Blank......You're not looking at the big picture here.
Not one.

How are we leaving them so wide open on threes?
It's been a lot. Its been a roller coaster that for some reason seemed like it would never get good. But you know what? We kept fighting. It's like that old saying goes, "Those Who Stay Will Be Champions." -David Molk
Chaney and Alford wouldn't make my top five of Big Ten players. Shit, they might be borderline on top five Hoosiers.
"I love him, he's a great coach, he's a great mentor, he's a great friend. He's every single thing you want a college coach to be, and he does it flawlessly." -David Molk
Agreed. Why is this fool always assigned to our games?
Was thinking the same thing! My friend that doesn't follow sports as close just asked me who he was even talking about.
Glenn Robinson was THE best B1G player I've seen
Schwing
Magic and Isiah, if not Jerry Lucas. Then you can really get into the debates of the Rice, Webber, Jimmy Jackson, Steve Smith, etc, etc.

It's always great to get crap calls all day at home.
All in for some manball.
Wow. Leaving them in this game way too long.
fuck! Stop leaving Richardson wide open for 3.
We SHOULD be pulling away now and its back to a 4 point game.
Go Blue! Always!
We really want to find a way to screw this up don't we
Schwing
Dakich is in love with the sound of his own voice. Someone should tell him that it's not necessarily to be talking every single moment the play-by-play guy isn't.
McGary and Horford are just not there defensively
We need the win. Tiime for Morgan again.
Morgan
Horford
LeVert
Hardaway, Jr.
Burke
...then remove Horford and add Robinson III. Sub Burke LeVert with Stauskas.

Illinois had the ball out of bounds, but I'll take that transition play.
HAIL.
...is playing his best game defensively of the season. Exactly what we needed.
“True loyalty is that quality of service that grows under adversity and expands in defeat. Any street urchin can shout applause in victory, but it takes character to stand fast in defeat. One is noise — the other, loyalty.”
Morgan back in lead goes back to nine. Coincidence?
YES'!!!!!!!!
Go Blue! Always!
When this team is on, they're really fucking on.


We've got 4 guards on the floor while they have 2 posts and a big wing. I love Stauskas, but he's not a PF.
