Yeah, not even I can find a lot good to say about this other than we will get better, and the long term outlook is good.
Yes, thanks to guys like Niang, Monte, Naz, Thomas. Our offense involves too much one on one -- not what this team is made of.
Show me one set play we've run this year that resulted in a lay-up or easy bucket. Heck, we are struggling to even get the ball inbounded this year. Remember Fred's inbound plays? We used to get layups every other time!
His butt will be on the burner. We have not improved. If anything we are getting worse. Body language is horrible.
So can we talk about bringing Hoiberg back yet? Or is it to early?
Imagine that. Coaches look better with good players. When you refuse to recruit the high school ranks that eventually catches up. We're at the point of eventually.
If you're going for the 'wow' factor, kerosene, rags and bottles are pretty inexpensive.
Does anyone else see that we have zero 4 year seniors & zero 3 year juniors on the team? Translation: Hoiberg couldn't recruit without TJ. Resulting in current **** show.
This season just went from being long and painful to basically unwatchable.
This team just got throttled by Milwaukee at home. There is nothing positive at all, as far I am concerned

Hoiberg was the architect of this. Prohm was set up for two great years (they were) and then a major dropoff barring a miracle. You can't graduate Niang, McKay, Nader, Burton, Thomas, Morris, and Long (all of which are being paid to play hoops now) and not have a drop-off with the number of scholarships you're allowed.
Exactly my point. We've been in dire need of ONE BUCKET at some time in both of these games. Most coaches run a set play for an easy bucket to break the ice, stop momentum, stop the bleeding, etc.
I think we all hope the long-term outlook is good. But at this point I don't think we can definitively say that.
No shooters = pack it in and don't worry about guys running free around the perimeter because they can't hurt you.
lol there it is! "Sorry Prohm, no need to coach and run plays. If they pack it in, you can't run a play."
