What about the 20 or so turnovers? I love rationalization.

Time outs are valuable - that's why you only get so many - why not use them? Never understand why we have 2 left at the end of every game.

George Washington is very good, played and shot well. We didn't. Our guys played hard. But we can't beat an equal or better team when we don't make shots and Chaz is turning it over like that.

It's all good. We are in next week. Like I said they got smoked tonight. Good to get humbled. Nothing promised. You have to earn it

In a perfect world Maxie would be our 6'10" C

Why are you rolling your eyes... besides Maxie, do you see anyone putting a good effort out there?

Yes I do.

It's so funny that I'm getting criticized for not caring. I think that's preferable to saying stupid shit like they quit after the FSU loss. I mean, c'mon.
I do care. I don't want them to lose. But THIS loss is not the end of the world. The NEXT loss is the end of the world.
And honestly, this tournament was lost for UMass when Jordair Jett drove the lane for a game-winning layup. Let's face facts.

I just checked the team stats and UMass is behind in every single one! That's hard to accomplish and certainly tells you something about heart and desire.

The only good from this game is that I'm starting to think the team might be better next year than they are right now. Based only on the last two games, not having Carter, Putney and Chaz will be a net positive.

Just want it to be Sunday at 6pm. Regardless of how bad this game has been, Sunday is going be very very sweet.

No, if there's one thing UMass did right tonight, it was play hard.

Would like to have Chaz back, but it think this will be a better team next year.

Who played hard? Are you serious?

One thing I like. DK is definitely sending Cady a message the last two nights. Think we end up a 7 or 8 seed.
