Ben Johnson and the boys are kicking ass- who would have thunk it??

[daveozark]

The kicking ass phraseology was admittedly over the top, but at least it created a reaction, juvenile sparring comments aside, I believe that the majority of us would love to see the basketball program become relevant. Based on their 6-2 record over the last 8 games I know the players are all in. Coach has done a heck of a job keeping this team together.

@TonyLiebert with one of the saddest statements ever: "The Gophers' win on Tuesday was one of the most impressive victories of Ben Johnson's career."

UCLA, with a losing record in the B1G

UCLA was 10-5 in the B1G at the time. Nice try Finny boy

Isn't UCLA 10-6 in conference, and 19-8 overall? It's ok to be a jerk on this board (in fact, I think it's required), but let's try to be somewhat accurate.

Gueessing he was mixing up the USC game (they have a losing record) with the UCLA game (the one Liebert referenced as impressive).

In fact- they are two separate schools, both based in Los Angeles, one of them private, one public.

Being an internet asshole is a tough enough look, being a stupid internet asshole is even worse. This board is populated with both unfortunately.

I'll ger carried if I want to get fucking carried away. You can not dictate to me

You do realize that one of the only time one gets carried away is the last time one gets carried away!

“Oh what a tangled web we weave/When first we practice to deceive,” Sir Walter Scott, not Billy Shakes, as I always thunk.

This would be a great Jeopardy question.

'Oh What A Tangled Web We Weave' Saying Origin & Meaning

'Oh what a tangled web we weave/When first we practice to deceive,' is a very ‘Shakespearean’ phrase, however, it is not from Shakespeare. It comes from an

They still call carrying?

The thing I love about The Hole is the forest is often lost because of the trees.

Coach has done a heck of a job keeping this team together.

And just think... when the season is over he has to find 8-10 new players, put together a paper thin non conference schedule so the team can gel and next February we can do this all over again.

 

[SplitDecision]

Before the West Coast games at USC/UCLA I was thinking the odds of winning both were about 10%.
Losing both-30%
Win one, lose one-60%

Be happy people!
