This season has been so fun to watch. Team fights and is getting moral victories. (Need to beat the teams they should and not allow those to be letdowns) In year one and having these many guys out for the season is such a punch to the guy.

Teams plays such good team ball and defense.
Team has a nice blend of skill set to play different ways and adjust.
Grove has a ton of potential.
Asuma has ability to be a stud in his final two years.
These two along with Tomes and Anderson can be the MN kids that get this going the right way with a solid portal group this off-season.

Ni(k)o is such a breath of fresh air. No nonsense, no excuses, has great fire and has the "power coach" feeling we've needed. He is pissed at a 6-game losing streak but you can tell how proud he is of this group.

There are going to be some big decisions on guys coming back from injuries. We can't afford to have guys on the roster that can't stay healthy.
 



That might be the most pointed about the flailing a leg I’ve ever seen a college coach. I’d guess it would be much more explicit had jcj gotten hurt as he came real hard

He just seemed pissed off overall about losing twice to wisconsin. I like it. It means something to him.

Coaches probably also realize that these men are professionals now. Don’t have to hold back as much.
 

I noticed he really didn't complain about the officiating, and he was right down there on the floor seeing it close up. Yet it seemed like 50% of the in-game comments made it seem like we were getting screwed really bad... As I watched the game, I saw the other guys turn up the defense and play in the way Nico would have liked his team to play defense in the 2nd half.

I saw somebody comment that we needed to run screens to get Durkin open in the second half.
We must have run 35 screens for Durkin in the second half ( certainly at least one on every half-court possession) and Wisconsin stayed with him for all but the 1 late in the game. Never saw Nico complain much about it because he was probably thinking "That's how I teach my guys to fight through and around screens".
