milehiiu Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 In case you missed it. I watched as a number 7 Maryland team lost to an unranked Seton Hall team tonight (12/19/19). A Maryland team that looked very good most of this season. Was anything but, tonight. Reminded me of our game against Wisconsin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing is one thing but losing to unranked Seton Hall who didn't have their 2 best players is another. I know boards and social media are just one of several indicators but general consensus is that in year 9 the program shouldn't look this way. Sound familiar?

And also took a miracle rally and massive failure by Illinois for Maryland to win at home vs them. Maybe the folks rating teams this year should sit it out for a month or two.

Maryland fans have been calling for him to be fired since before we fired Crean. They’re similar in a lot of ways... Recruit enough talent to create high expectations, but never win enough to fulfill them. And Turgeon’s never even won a conference title. Cowan and Smith are one of the best duos in the conference, but I’d bet the farm they don’t win more than 2 games in the tournament this year.

Very good description of exactly what I'm reading this morning. At least Crean won a couple of titles. Saw one guy joke that the coach at Dematha would be better for this team right now.

Hoosier987 Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 I encourage anyone to go over to Maryland's message board and read the thread titled "Maryland vs Seton Hall." Some of the comments are hilarious. As a matter fact I'll post the link. See below if you want a couple good chuckles. Some of those fans actually sound a lot like some IU fans --- are some of you MD fans too? https://247sports.com/college/maryland/board/53/Contents/maryland-vs-seton-hall-game-thread-140834709/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet .The SOS is only going to help IU from here on out. And IU is sitting pretty on the NET as of today (12/20/19). Better than just a chance. Baring any disasters.

And IU isn't. Yup! They have Stevens and Watkins and then a bunch of athletic guards around them that can shoot (at least tonight, not sure what their percentages are on the season). Full disclosure on Central Connecticut, but their 0-11, so not great competition The rankings do seem weird. I know IU’s early schedule wasn’t tough, but we have no bad losses and wins over La Tech, FSU and UConn, while many teams ahead of IU have more than one loss and some bad losses. Weird the “bad schedule” perception is sticking to IU, but not some others. Win this weekend and I’d expect IU to be ranked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just took a bad 3 before the timeout, then came back and airballed a layup out of the timeout. Edit: Then he traveled on a fast break going in for a layup on the next possession. Man, he was way overrated by the recruiting services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
