BobSaccamanno Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 This is not to bash Trayce cuz I love the kid. But a player of his stature has to demand the ball and go get buckets or draw so much attention that someone else gets loose. I am pretty confident CMW would agree with that. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course people are going to be upset. Adrenaline can take over. The board is an outlet for that. It’s not new. I calibrate accordingly.

kyhoosier29 Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Last thing I’ll say, every person on that team should be beyond embarrassed by that 2nd half performance. And we don’t even get to see what they are made of after that debacle until Jan 2nd (no N Dame shouldn’t be a game). It’s embarrassing saying Jan 2nd is the next opportunity, but I don’t count on us being able to win at Penn St, so 🤷🏻♂️. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inequality Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Guys I’m going to bed. It’s a tough loss that should have been a win considering the first 35 minutes. People are going to vent because they care. That’s what boards are for. Let’s keep it civil please. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We missed way to many free throws, and X was trying to do too much. He was easily getting inside with his ball handling but was out of control too much, late in the game. We had way too many open shots and good looks and missed bunnies and free throws that just wouldn’t go down. Also, Wisconsin started hitting shots. All those things lead to the ultimate, perfect storm. Let this be a huge lesson to CMW and this team, to NEVER , EVER let your foot off the glass. What gets me though is how people come out of the woodwork with firey torches. This game was ours for the taking but we gave it away…totally unexceptable! But……I can’t stand when people come on here and act like someone p!$$ed in there Wheaties!!! Look, I’m furious too, but THIS TEAM IS NOT the “same old team”, CMW is the right guy for this job! Don’t forget to give Wisconsin little credit…You best believe a team with CMW, Dane Fife, Yasir Rosemond and Thad Matta as coaches for this team, … a game like this won’t happen again. I hope you’re right, but there’s no proof of that yet. Results are still the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I don't like is when those doing the criticism isn't around when we are playing well. Also the people saying they are done with this team, good because we don't need fans like this. I have been a fan for all of my life(51) and will never stop. I hate losing as much as anyone but the drama queens on social media is embarrassing. Also the ones that criticizing Johnson must have missed the first half when he had 8-5-6 Takes 40 minutes to win a game Scott. Not the first half. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bardo did have one cogent thought when he said XJ should look to finish and not just be looking for a foul to be called... While I am in a foul mood, I hate having Bardo call every one of our games too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quit acting like fans have to be a certain way and to your standards! If you don’t like the criticism and the way some of us express it then why even respond if you feel the way you do. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sea Turtle Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 27 minutes ago, 5fouls said: Mods. This guy obviously is not an IU fan. He comes in and trolls only at the point when the board is most agitated. Even if he is an IU fan (he's not), he brings nothing but garbage to the board. Can we once and for all drop the permanent ban on him? All I'm saying is that we get screwed whenever we play Wisconsin by the refs. Hence the french maid comment.

The first half is what we can be...the second, unfortunately, is what we are... At this point in his career X “is what he is”…ie a rollarcoaster. He is going to win some games for us, have stretches where he is clearly our best PG but then have times when he gets too emotional and/or go all out hero-ball on us. He was 4-16 and took 5 more shots than TJD. Not good. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev_AK Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 My last rant of the night- no more Race Thompson shooting 3’s. And I agree with whoever said the Durr “travel” went from an AND-1 to taking points off the board- truly a momentum killer. Game changer. Soul Crusher. I hate Wisconsin. But as the great Farmer Fran once said: “We live to play another day.” GO IU 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KL would not have seen the court against Syracuse if it wasn’t for X, Rob and Stewart all fouling out. He clearly is not in the rotation at this point.

Muddy River Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Two Wisconsin players ended the game with 4 fouls. That got me to thinking...do you think a Wisconsin player has ever fouled out at the Kohl Center? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I outgrew getting kicks out of visiting other team's fan boards to troll about 20 years ago. It truly is a juvenile thing to do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Here's where I'm at. Disappointed and angry. To piss away that lead vs that team? I'm going to sign off and say good luck to those trying to figure out our Madison problems. It's December but damn. Night all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muddy River Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Looking at the box score, we shot better than them from the field, we shot better than them from 3, we had more assists than they did, and we out rebounded them. Who knew you could lose a game on free throws and turnovers..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
