I was nervous about playing Toledo even before the tourney started. They remind of a poor man's OU-2010. FOY point guard, dynamic 2 guard, moments of brilliance but no depth and on the verge of collapsing but on a hot streak. let's go Bobcats. 


Thanks for making me even more nervous than I already am.   I'd rather be wearing these at the moment:

Doesn't matter what happens defensively, if this team can't score any points they won't win. Tons of standing around and ISO on offense.

These offensive dry spells just kill me. Painful to follow.

3 points in 8+ minutes is pathetic.

Just wondering, what is the record for the lowest shooting percentage in a college ball game?

The offense makes me think of sad things like when I forever lost my true love.
It just hurts a lot.

This offense is pathetic. I'm honestly torn whether to be upset at dj for his shots because no one on the team can hit water from a fricking boat

With the bad comes the good and we are clearly dialed in on d. how we're only up 3 with 12 offensive boards is beyond me

Based on what I've seen, I can't help but think that John Wooden passed at the right time. If he witnessed this display of basketball we are seeing tonight while he were alive, it probably would have killed him. . .

...sheesh!  Can no one see that the glass may be half-full for a change?? Yes it was an ugly half, but we are absolutely dominating the boards and our defense has been amazing.  Those are two phases of the game that require focus and effort.  So if we're bringing that to the table, you've just got to think the shots will start to fall.  Toledo is really soft inside...we have to look to drive more/make strong post moves. Enjoy the 2nd half... Go Cats!

You suppose Dustin Ford ever points out to Ivo that the fall-away jumper is a loser for him?

We have shown little/no ability to make strong post moves. Hell, we can't catch the ball down there.

This could go down to the wire based on the pretty poor play of both teams.  Not going to be able to separate ourselves with the poor shooting, turnovers , and poor free throw shooting.

I could throw a team of 6th graders out on the court and get a more organized offense than we run.

Two words this team has NEVER HEARD.

Shot. Selection.

Good God man we don't have a lot of "shooters" on this team as it is, but it doesn't help when your shot selection is this bad.

That being said defense and effort look good. Here's to hoping we squeak one out tonight.

STO color guy and I am on the same page, "shooting fade aways and passing out of the post, I wouldn't pass it to Ivo if I were his teammate."

You're absolutely right.  But that is the point of making halftime adjustments after all.  Great start to the 2nd half!....you people are too quick to say "wow we're a terrible team...this is ugly, etc."   I'll take a one point win i don't care how we get it. It's all about moving on.

DID SOMEONE JUST SAY DEFENSE DOESNT MATTER. ANYONE THAT HAS PLAYED ANY SPORT KNOWS THAT DEFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS. DO YOU WANT TO RETRACT YOUR PRIOR STATEMENT.
