Cognitive dissonance is a bitch.

So is being a richard

Cognitive dissonance is a bitch.

 

[Bad Gopher]

Rebounding is an important phase of the game.

 

[howeda7]

Just a pathetic sequence there. How can they have not taught basic fundamentals by now?

 

[big10guy]

15-1 offensive rebounds. Totally unacceptable. Fundamental rebounding.

 

[GophersInIowa]

15-1 offensive rebounds. Totally unacceptable. Fundamental rebounding.

They worked hard to force a throw up 3 pointer and then no effort to rebound.

 

[howeda7]

We're officially last in FT % now?

 

[skiumah1]

Really could use Garcia, Evans, Fox, Ihnen, Christie and a high level guard or two right now.

Too much to ask?

 

[Spaulding!No!]

Fire the staff!

 

[Bad Gopher]

This team is so messed up.

 

[UpAndUnder43]

Ramberg might need minutes. He’s a known bucket and works hard

 

[Bfan]

Whatever the reasons (that are valid), it's deflating to watch this. Look good and then, oh great...

 

[leib0039]

-13 ORB and -10 TO...Sign of youth, but also terrible coaching.

 

[MonikerSchmoniker45]

Or a player they might have been able to obtain had they used all their scholarships

 

[stocker08]

Yeah....plan B to Samuels would have been the difference!

 

[GophersInIowa]

Scored 3 points in the last 8 1/2 minutes.

 

[skiumah1]

I actually thought we squeezed about as much as we could out of this group today. Offense is hard when nobody can break anybody down.

Vastly overmatched talent wise will continue to be a theme.

 

[Gopherbbdude]

Legs gone

A known bucket?

Not happening KFAN

 

[howeda7]

You can't cry injuries and defend the piss poor roster management at the same time.

 

[skiumah1]

I forget about that. What the hell?

Though the scholarship before that went to Samuels. Not a good sign couldn’t get anybody to come in here.

I’d say skill, but talent?

 

[howeda7]

A game we never led and are losing by 10 to an unranked team is a moral victory. Gopher basketball in 2023 I guess.

 

[Bad Gopher]

Quite honestly, if I recruited a team that finished last in Division 1 in free throw shooting (or anything, really), I'd feel bad about that.

 

[howeda7]

@Michigan State next. Great.

 

[stocker08]

You can't cry injuries and defend the piss poor roster management at the same time.

My point is that Johnson couldn't have possibly seen four guys injured for an extended period of time. And that last scholarship would have likely gone to a player not much better than Ramberg.

I guess the work during the Holidays didn't help...

sure he’s more disappointed than anyone on here

 

[skiumah1]

Both. Our talent is not good compared to the rest of the big 10 with the guys that played today.
