    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT MICHIGAN STATE IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Being proud of their effort and calling it a win are two different things. The only thing pathetic here is you. Did you watch the game? Judging from your post my guess is no. Pathetic.

    Jack’s a legend. He also gave up a 5 point play that changed the game. I get it. He is so easy to root for. But his fouls were senseless. And costly. He is not worthy of consistent high major minutes. But damn it was fun, I guess.

    Fairly certain almost everyone on this board would have taken the score w four minutes left in the game. Short handed , these kids gave it their all. Be realistic.

    What would RockRaven say?

    Hate to lose but with backs against the wall, they played hard. Really surprised by the efforts of JOJ, Payne, and Christie. At times, it was 2(Mitchell and Garcia) vs 8 ( msu and refs) and they were still in it after 37 minutes. Tonight should put to rest a lot. Shorten the rotation and...

    That’s a bit harsh. Dawson is an extremely talented big who is asked to play out of position. While I don’t like seeing him on the three point line he is basically unstoppable on the block. With a proper offense, Dawson is first for second team all big ten.

    I am seriously starting to doubt your reading comprehension. No one is saying Mitchell has been great. He is struggling. The entire team is. Once you have time to actually review what’s different and try analyze why we are struggling it’s as clear as day. Some on here refuse to recognize that...

    I don’t know Mike. You can act all cool and all but truth is I am nothing but a fan. Believe what you want. All I know is go back and rewatch when they were playing well to now. What changed? You don’t think just handing a kid valuable minutes after leaving then team for weeks has a contagion...

    Just a frustrated fan. How can a team go from looking so cohesive and fluid to this in ten days. There aren’t many variables. I will allow you to name them.

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

    Wrong guy. I never once mentioned Garcia. I think Garcia is a stud. He is really a stretch four playing out of position, but still a stud. Hmmm, I must have stuck a nerve. The numbers actually do almost tell everything. There is no logical explanation for Carrington to be playing any sort of...

    Sure, if you want to ignore all metrics. Numbers don’t lie.

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

    This is spot on. To me, it feels like Big Ten coaches took notice after the recent win streak. They have made adjustments and have actively taken Mitchell out of the game. What people don’t realize is how Mitchell during that run opened things up for so many on the floor. It’s why I think Elijah...

    What exactly does Carringron do well?

    Joj needs to play defense. He is often times out of position. He had 2 rebounds! Maybe that’s why he doesn’t play more. And I am a huge fan of his.

    Mitchell is better than Carrington and does far more for this team on both ends of the floor. Truth is, this has gone south the moment Ben thrusted Careington into more meaningful minutes. How has that gone? Look at the +/- and it shows what a disaster it really is. Ben probably feels he has to...

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    It’s really not that difficult. The problem the last few games is twofold. Ben’s sub patterns feel random and senseless. More alarming, his over usage of Carrington has disrupted everything. Just look at the+/-. The team would be better suited playing the starters extended minutes and have...

    Some thoughts

    Ben’s handling of Mitchell in particular and the backcourt in general is head scratching. The last two games the offense has been stagnant and as a result, no one has been getting open shots. Mitchell moves incredibly well off the ball. Time for Ben to make adjustments to free Mitchell up. We...

    Interesting. To be honest, I felt CBJ’s sub patterns were odd all night. Hard to criticize w the result but I do think this lack of a clear rotation will hurt in long run.

    I was at the game last night. Mitchell was incredible on both ends of the floor. I really think he will earn all defensive honors. He is that disruptive. Awesome performance! Can’t wait for Sunday!
