Big Ten Basketball

Yeah that was brutal. Hopefully Ayo is back by B10 tourney

Lost some respect for Izzo here. And I get he’s gonna get calls at home and their backs are up against the wall but dam how can you miss that call? These B1G refs are whistle happy practically everywhere else but Sparty? Cmon

find some dam middle ground
 
Pretty fucked up foul. It's one of the reasons I can't stand MSU in any sport.

Im with you now.. This will be good for Illinois in March. They need to learn how to play without their best player on the floor for a game or 2 hopefully. Ayo was ballin
 
Remember how fun Michigan vs OSU was?? Michigan vs Iowa is the opposite in 1 half.

Iowa D playing better though. Keeping them in the game in which Garza looks terrible(will probably wake up in the 2nd).
 
What have they said about Jack Nunge's injury? Heard he was on crutches.
 
I am watching this just thinking, "WHY NOT FOOTBALL!"
 
Classic Fran. Leads at 7. You've got a little momentum. Let's go to the bench for 4 minutes til you're down 16. Never fails

Garza finally is playing someone who is bigger than him.

Don't think it would have mattered. UM just isn't giving Iowa any room to shoot and UM has two big bodies they can use to bang with Garza
 
Michigan bigs made Garza their bitch.
 
It's so irritating. I don't hate Fran but man he has no sense of when to get your starters back in. Same thing happened vs Zags when it was a 1 pt game then they ripped off a 12-0 run vs the bench and vs OSU when we were up 11 and it went to down 2 vs the bench . There are some teams you just can't go 10 deep against

Maybe but it was still a 7 pt game with the ball when he did it. Its just stupid as hell
 
Illinois is ballin with no Ayo. Curbelo dam close to a tripDub
 
Northwestern is fucking terrible
 
Northwestern is fucking terrible

I dont think they even beat ISU.

Does Collins coach them?? Gophs have no Robbins and thus no height. Freeman and Johnson have 2 fouls each. NU makes 0 attempt to post up their clearly bigger players.

They just keep turning it over up top and launching bricks. Mental basketball team.
 
Garza was certainly contested all night, but he missed so many 2 foot jumpers it's not even funny. He regressed to his frosh/soph years tonight. I don't think he impressed any scouts at the next level.
 
The AD that hired him had a good track record at VCU of finding them next up and coming coach. He hired Anthony Grant and Shaka Smart before becoming AD at Minnesota in 2012. He couldn't wait to fire Tubby. Which in retrospect was probably the correct move, just given the staleness of it, but there was also the thought he could get Shaka to come with him. I don't remember what the coaching landscape looked like back then, but he was certainly a huge reach. He's been slightly worse than Tubby was, but everytime he's ready to get fired, he pulls a season out of his ass(2017 & 2019) or Covid saves him. If we don't make the tournament this year, he's gotta go.

Pitino was plan f

Smart, buzz, flip, hoiberg etc

Yeah pretty much.

Tonight's game is there to be lost. At this point it might be best for my mental health. Put me out of my misery.
