    After Nebraska loss, Will Pitino be Immediately Fired?

    I agree ... I'm thinking more about the players. Doesn't seem like they'll fight for Pitino and Pitino knows it.

    What is the benefit to allowing Pitino to finish the season?

    Does anyone have the a link to information regarding his buyout ... after my last post, I diid some searching and all I could find is that it is $1.75 with no drop to $1M on April 1.

    What is the benefit to allowing Pitino to finish the season?

    I wasn't aware of the buyout dropping by $750K on April 1 ... from my perspective, you don't fire him until then and pay the $1M.

    After Nebraska loss, Will Pitino be Immediately Fired?

    It would be great to see Conroy get a few games. It's obvious the guys are not going to play hard for Pitino. He's lost the team. It would be a positive for all involved.

    I like Jamal, but after rewatching the 2nd half, he gave up 19 on defense. I don’t think it’s effort ... it’s he’s just not big enough. He needs to be better at the point of attack because he doesn’t the physical size to redirect. Switching also hurts, because he has to be better getting over...

    I like Ryan James as well. Probably because I find him to have better game coverage than Marcus at the Star Trip.

    Carr- Foot Injury

    I heard thru a friend of a friend that Marcus practiced today so it isn’t too serious which is good considering we need to win some games.

    All Things Chet Holmgren Recruitment Thread (Class of 2021, Gophers Have Offered)

    I've bee trying to watch a few of Suggs' games and that snippet does a pretty good job of summarizing this game. From my perspective, he does a great job of getting the offense started and being aggressive (shooting from deep or going to the basket) at the right times. He's really good at...

    Good shots...small ask of the next coach.

    Team 1: 47% FG ... 30% 3-Pt ... 64% FT Team 2: 41% FG ... 50% 3-Pt ... 73% FT Team 1 wins by 9 while Team 2 looses by 31. Shot selection is important, but only a part of what can get a win ...Maryland is Team 1 with today’s win at Rutgers where they held Rutgers to 59. We all know Team 2.

    Last game wasn’t so great - Tre with 2, Marcus with 3, and Jamal had 5 which is a pretty big number. Combine that with the trio not looking very good on D and you can see how the IL guards had the numbers they got.

    I agree ... inconsistency is a sign of weak/bad coaching. This team is not held accountable and it doesn’t appear to have clear expectations, especially on the defensive end of the court.

    ***OFFICIAL ILLINOIS AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    I listened as well ... both JG and Spencer kind brushed it off. I actually rewatched the game this morning. In the first half, we gave up transition baskets after makes! That can only happen when their is no pride or effort on defense. One was an easy 3 ... the other one, ball was inbounded and...

    Please be specific ... how did you describe him? He had a great patient move to score and a couple of nice defensive stops. What exactly do you expect?

    You started with “best player is awful at defense” .... I’ll help you out “HE’S NOT TOUR BEST PLAYER” if he’s awful at defense. if your “Best” player scores 18 and gives up 22, what’s the point?

    Bad take... he looked good today in limited minutes

    Here’s your challenge... if you’re looking at best defensive players, are ok with not playing without Marcus and Jamal because they were awful today?

    So what does a good defensive team look like? Is it based on recruiting rankings?

    Our guards were terrible on defense today. Didn’t matter what we did on offense. This was an utter defensive mess that left many of our Bigs essentially helpless trying to recover or stop a dunk. Total lack of energy, effort, and discipline on the perimeter.
