I'm going to be brutally honest....I hope Ball St. hangs on and wins this. Lose the game. Miss the MAC Tournament. If that makes me not a UMass fan, so be it. This isn’t the UMass I fell in love with anyway.

Going 0-12 in football and missing the MAC Basketball Tournament is huge ammunition against Bamford. If anything could finally get him fired, that might be it.

Frank can go screw but NOT UNTIL BAMFORD GOES. All anger should be directed at Bamford, Reyes, and Meehan.

Why didn’t Placide play against Buffalo? I am dumbfounded.

Wotta an amazing let down. Brutal to watch, yet the slide almost seemed inevitable.

Frank should resign. He won't because he'd be leaving $6 mil on the table to coach his son, but this is a disaster.

Between this and football... I mean, what more can be said..?

Martin and Bamford need to go tomorrow. He shouldn't even coach the last two games. Thorr can be interim AD.
Give WBB more money.

Oh man I was thinking the same thing. When I hear people talk about losing to shit teams in close games as entertaining as if it was a positive thing is wild.

Crazy that Parker, one of our best offensive players with 0 fouls wasn’t in at all in OT. Can’t figure that out after he’s had some pretty clutch plays this season.
