***OFFICIAL wisconsin AT MINNESOTA SENIOR NIGHT IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[upnorthkid]

What great fundamentals this team has

 

[skyman31]

1. I think it’s super disrespectful by Ben to not play Taurus Samuels on senior night at all. In a game that doesn’t really matter, he deserves a shot to play when giving his final season to us.
2. If you’re not gonna play him, don’t put him in with 17 seconds left and expect him to perform.

 

[BTChamp]

Um if your watching the game how do you not know he fouled out.

Umm, go fuck yourself. I have other things going on. Why you need to be a dink? Just let it go. I missed something. You are allowed to not reply to something.

 

[howeda7]

Shouldn't have missed that on purpose.

 

[scools12]

The coaching decision to not give help defensively down low completely puzzling.

The number of dumb plays by the Gophers during the last 4 minutes was the difference.

 

[GopherJack]

I have no idea, but did our players shoot their FT's this bad in high school?

 

[leib0039]

Battle...snatching defeat from the jaws of victory yet again.

 

[From the Parkinglot]

Whoever is the color commentator is should be sent back to the junior college he graduated from cause he sucks.

Same to you jackass

 

[Gophers_4life]

Thought when Battle stole it and got fouled they were gonna tie it. Bummer!

 

[kg21]

Playing Wisconsin in basketball is like playing Iowa in football.

Every fu-----g game is there for the taking, and they just can't ever do it. Game after game after game.

It's like watching a continual replay. It's just unreal.

 

[From the Parkinglot]

Battle 1-8 with 5 points and 2 turnovers. Don’t let the door hit you on your way out.

 

[skiumah1]

We’re so poorly coached it’s dumb. This isn’t a 2 win roster.

 

[Drake University Gopher]

Couldn’t imagine a more appropriate way for our season to end. Free throws.

 

[jblass]

Take care of the ball and make free throws and you can win games. If you don’t you won’t!

That and the typically miserable free throw shooting.

 

[mplarson7]

At least we were in a position to choke the game away rather than get blown off the court, I guess?

 

[Bad Gopher]

Very winnable and poorly coached game. Outscored by 11 in the second half. Failure to adjust defensively.

 

[Spaulding!No!]

Umm, go fuck yourself. I have other things going on. Why you need to be a dink? Just let it go. I missed something. You are allowed to not reply to something.

Let’s aim the rage back toward Ben and Coyle

I've often heard Stanford is the Anoka CC of the West. Get a clue

What did juco grads do to deserve that insult?

 

[BTChamp]

Same to you jackass

Hey, There was something I didn't know. Nobody needs ass comments. I was told by another poster he fouled out, and I corrected myself. Respectfuly. Let's just settle down. We all want the same thing.

 

[cjbfbp]

I guess that's progress of sorts.

He literally said Battle was not going to intentionally miss the free throw. Even though the guys at the 3 point line were lined up to storm the lane. He then said he knew battle was going to miss the free throw cause of the arch of the ball. He was a joke and needed to get a clue.

 

[UpAndUnder43]

My biggest concern with this group of freshman and all incoming freshman is that the coaching staff will need to bring in players greater than our conference competitors because there is no reason to believe they’ll be coached as well as the kids at Purdue, Illinois, Rutgers, Ohio St, wisconsin, Iowa, etc

 

[60's Guy]

I have no idea, but did our players shoot their FT's this bad in high school?

If they did, why did we recruit them? For defense?

 

[forever a gopher]

All I wanted out of this garbage season was to beat a sub-mediocre Wisconsin team at home.

Just burn this shit down. What a steaming pile of shit season preceded by a steaming pile of crap season. Just fire everybody and don’t look back.

 

[cncmin]

And Samuels can't make FT's. Fitting ending.

ask yourself why he was bringing the ball upthe court. Carrington had just knocked down two the previous time down…

 

[kg21]

We’re so poorly coached it’s dumb. This isn’t a 2 win roster.

no big inside

can't get by people on the perimeter

not much for physicality

and a hideous free throw shooting team

Yes, it's a 2 win team

 

[howeda7]

I have no idea. Either Carrington or Henley are better FT shooters than Cooper or Samuels. Especially Carrington.
