Re: Post Game
Seriously was Garrett that bad tonight? When he was in and playing things clicked.
Thompson- Never should see the court
Jiri- talk about getting worse
C.Johnson- too bad he doesn't get more time
Boozer- not ready
Haluska- 1-18 on the season
Seriously with all this I think Wesley would be the key.

Re: Post Game
It fell already. :tongue:
Our front line really concerns me, save Brackins. That, and our backcourt, our scoring, our decision making, and our rebounding.
Other than that, pretty pleased.

I came into this season expecting 15-16 wins and excited to see the young fellas grow up and make the first step towards being something great. I am satisfied with this so far. I'd love to see wins, but we have to remember we are outmanned in many areas this season.
Re: Post Game
We get very little penetration, and when we do, it seems like our bigs have hands of stone. At least ISU cut down on the turnovers tonight. Guards need to work on feeding the post. Jiri needs to work on not getting stripped. Brackins needs to rebound better.
I will give MN a lot of credit. McKenzie hit some huge shots and Coleman/Tollackson also played great. Plus they made around 12-14 free throws in a row to finish us off. It will be interesting to see how they do under Tubby.

We've got nice talent but it's young. If there's a Big 12 team with worse guard play I'd love to see it. The sky isn't falling but people had too much expectation on this team. I still like our core for the future with Diante, Wesley, Brackins, and a few solid role players.
I thought the point guard play was much better tonight. Peterson had a couple of bad TOs, but Thompson and Clark each had a TO's that a 6th grader shouldn't make. Rebounds and poor shooting are the things hurt tonight. With a health Juri and Wes some of the rebounding will change.
We need three things, two of them are on the bench right now, and the other is likely 1-3 years away (Big 12 caliber PG)
With a healthy Wes, we win this game easy though.

No doubt about it Tubby is going to turn the Minnesota program around but that still doesn't help with the pain of ISU playing so badly tonight.
Re: Post Game
No chicken little here, just tired of losing. This is a game we have to win @ Hilton, no excuses.

Unless Wes returns healthy and Lucca is OKed by the NCAA this is going to be a long year. With the exception of Brackins, Clark, and Diante I wasn't pleased with the performance tonight. I am still hopeful that Jiri will again step up like last year and Wes will return to form to provide a decent starting 5.
I think having Wes tonight would have made this a W with his rebounding ability alone. Trying to maintain some excitement about this year.......
