After that 1-20 from 3 game a while back, I figured this was going to be another horrible perimeter shooting team. Since that game, we've been so much better.

Slow scoring start but not for lack of good shots or effort to find them.

Fun watching the shots fall after cranking up the D.

I've always loved how this gif seems like Ejim is just confused by Scotty geeking out.

We are the type of team that other teams will hate having to play against, especially the good teams. They may beat us, but they know they're gonna have to bust their ass to do so. We're gonna be a really tough out.

OK, I think we can officially say the sky is the limit for this team. This was the perfect night to expect them to play down and they just aren’t. The energy and effort is constant in every game and they have such toughness. We’re going to compete in the B12, THIS YEAR. I know the top of the league is amazing but this group of guys is ready for the challenge.

What a job by TJ and the staff to assemble and prepare this team for success. I’m honestly emotional with how quickly this has turned around. Cyclone basketball means so much to so many and this team is playing with such pride. Now I want to drive to Omaha Saturday…

Hot take prediction is they get Baylor or KU in Hilton.

Curious if he tried to bring this under Fred and Prohm or if it developed after seeing the lack of that focus/defensive intensity under those.

Is it me or are the house lights brighter today? I feel like I can see more of the crowd than usual, even some of the balcony.
