I never have any problem rooting against the angry little troll.

That’s brutal though - Izzo vs IU is rough - good for us

We are still gonna win the conference - IU is about to win and Michigan and Michigan State still play twice.

I’m more concerned playing IU than any game left on the schedule

Probably already been said but Heide and Colvin falling off a cliff wasn’t something we considered happening. I was hoping Colvin’s performance against USC was what got him rolling again.

Cam just looks lost out there.

Good news - this team has shown the ability to come back pissed off after loses. Pray for Wisconsin.

For sure. Myles started off with good energy with 3 boards but on the offensive side he’d get the ball and not even look at the basket. He then would take two dribbles AWAY from the basket and stare down smith to give the ball back to him. I’m not sure if this by design or he has no confidence or has been told not to try and drive, but the offense needs more out of him than that. He also missed some big box out opportunities on weak side after we double the post and the rebound went to the weak side.

Heide was decent in wolf, especially giving up 5-6 inches in height. But offensively, it’d be great to have him see his shot go down.

Cam and him are now 12/60 from 3 in 2025.

Hopefully, they catch fire (and Harris plays up to where we know he can), but if not, it’s going to be a bit harder to get to the second weekend.

This happens all too often. It's like he doesn't know what to do unless he gets a wide-open look from 3, or gets on the fast break for a lob. You see him in the middle of the court in the half-court and it's like a deer in the headlights.

Remember the game early this season, can't remember against who, but Myles got the ball against a full court press and immediately had to get it back to Braden who was double-teamed and we turned it over. I can't believe that that's coaching.
