For quite possibly the last time, I have to ask: why is Sheldon on the floor for more minutes of all players not named Paveletzke? Yes, a nice hustle block on KSU breakaway, but I counted no less than 5 times where his man beat him off the dribble, putting Sheldon in position where he had to trail the dribble penetration. Not to mention our "shooting" guard missing his only 2 looks from 3.
And his first shot of the 2nd half is a step back, off the dribble, fadeaway three that bricked off the rim. He has probably never made that shot in serious competition. You've got to be kidding me.
LOL. The shot clock was at 1. Do you want him to pass to someone?
You're thinking of a different 3-pt attempt by Sheldon.

Unless there's a miracle, the last thing Hadaway did in an Ohio uniform is foul out on a tech.
He had a fantastic first half and could have left us with a positive memory. Instead he acts like the entitled clown he is. What a whack punk. Good riddance.
Did he steal your girlfriend or something? Bang your mom?

It took until the last 4 minutes (potentially) of the season, but we finally get to see a Simmons-Breath lineup LOL

Was trying to think of a sarcastic retort to this, but that's not even close to the shot I'm talking about. His first shot happened several possessions and minutes earlier.
Dude. You're wrong. He's taken 4 shots. Missed 2 in 1st half at 16 minute mark and 14 minutes. The desperation shot and the 3 he hit are all that's left until the one he just missed.

Biggest minutes of the season, try a brand new lineup. Boals ball.

Kent is more talented, more athletic, and bigger.

But we make up for it by also being less disciplined.

Both the stats and play by play say otherwise. 2 shots in 1st half. 2nd half was near shot clock violation, the 3 he hit and the one he missed at 3 minutes remaining.

Maybe watch the actual game my guy. He took a 3 early in the 2nd half that was a complete brick. But nice try. Keep defending him.

Giacomo, can you provide reasons why you disagree? Or should Ohio fans blindly back our coaches?

Edit: based on past queries, I'm sure it's another hit-and-run from Giacomo. Doesn't like when a Bobcat fan criticizes Boals or the team but provides no defense for his thinking.

We never have to watch Aidan Hadaway play basketball for Ohio again. And for that, I am thankful.

Was Elliott on the bench? Sat where I couldn't see at all. I don't think he was there when we were warming up pre-game.

Was anyone truly surprised with the outcome of tonites game? This was an ugly season from start to finish and nothing that transpired tonite was one bit surprising.

This game was a fitting end to a tough season.

Sparks of hope, but in the end we weren't good enough. 23% 3PT shooting. Hadaway was hot early, but then started taking ill advised 3s and fouled out in incredible fashion.

Sheldon had a nice block but otherwise was an absolute ghost. Pavs lays everything out there, but ultimately came up short when we needed him to have a huge day. Simmons was efficient and steady, the leader of this team.

Kelly was not a factor at all offensively, especially in the 1st. It's hard for us to win if everyone is not involved offensively because we don't hit many threes.

Weird substitutions with Burris coming in for the first time halfway through the 2nd half.

Giacomo message board rules - Never criticize any players or coaches, that is mean. Also do not make any predictions, that is silly. Lastly, do not share any of your thoughts on anything, because you are an idiot.

Other than that, have fun guys!

And, to summarize it further: "Que Sera, Sera" And, if you disagree because you are not a fatalist, you are a clown. You can take my word for it, as I'm a self-identified clown!

Evidently his mom said he was better and it left a bad taste

And to think, if they just interviewed you, we’d have 7 MAC titles in the past seven years.
