That's probably true but lacking cash is a big part of the problem.

PJ has been here for 7 FULL seasons (not counting the short 2020 one). He's had two losing seasons among those. Pitino had four outright losing seasons out of his eight. No, they weren't comparable. A losing season isn't excused if the team was doing reasonably well through the first two...

Seems pretty clear from what we've seen in the first three games that Asuma was envisioned to be the point guard off the bench, at least at the beginning of the season. I'm not sure you can lay all the blame for his underwhelming performance so far on the coach. He's averaging 26 minutes per...

Odukele is a defensive genius!

Odukele has offensive value! Two points!

No, he's slimmed down.

In fairness, Asuma hasn't been very good either. 0-4 with two turnovers.

3 of 21 on field goals in the first half. Hard to beat that for futility. We are 7-11 on free throws which probably is above our average.

You know, I think it was the worst half of CBB that I've seen in my life. And I'm pretty old!

The Gophers can't play any worse offensively than they played in that first half but credit NTSU for playing well defensively. Gophers haven't played too badly on the defensive end either. Question: Does Odukele have any value on the offensive end?

I don't know if anyone noticed the University of Portland v. Oregon game on Tuesday night but the final margin is a bit misleading. Oregon won by 10 points in overtime but Portland was ahead from about the 8:00 mark of the 1st half until the buzzer at the end of the second half. A poor...

That's a good way to get back in the game if you fall behind.

Saint Peter's, the Georgetown of Jersey City, is giving Rutgers a tight game midway through the first half. Rutgers has a starter from Waconia, PJ Hayes, who appears to be a stretch forward. He played three years at DII Black Hills State, transferred to U of San Diego last season, and...

Agreed. I think Brosmer threw too many long passes down the field (particularly to the sideline) and that's something he's not particularly good at doing. Max is an efficient quarterback but he's a chain mover on short and intermediate passes, not a long bomber. Also, as you mentioned, our...

I haven't seen them either. I'm just saying that because they did about as well as we did with a comparable opponent in their first game and they only beat Bethune-Cookman (who surely can't be that good) by 5 points at home in their second game. So, I'd say their two-game start is very similar...

Great post-week 1 feature! At this point, I think Nebraska should be added to the bottom-of-the-league watch list. They've looked pretty mediocre so far.

Yes, I was thinking about that when he did this one. If one is going to pull a face mask at least do it when it's a critical situation (like stopping a touchdown run). Why do that to an offensive lineman?

You know he won't look for Mitchell on open threes. How? From two games? I thought Patterson did a pretty good job looking for his teammates and distributing the ball today.

I didn't know he was injured. He came back in the game in the second half didn't he?

Yes. People should keep in mind that Northwestern lost to Chicago State, a perennially bad team, last season and they went to the tournament and won a game. The team didn't look good most of the time today but, to their credit, the remaining players managed to erase the deficit and go ahead...
