Bobcat Love's Sense of Shame
1/6/2026 7:31 PM
Simmons had 16 points on 8 shots in the first half.

So of course he has two shots in the second half so Hadaway can go 0-6 and turn the ball over 4 times.

That last series exemplifies Hadaway. Takes a 3 and weak shiz. Drives to hoop and weak shiz. Tied up and acts like he is a beast. Captain Chaos is dead everyone. He is now AJC Lite. Or Diet Clayton.

Stuck on 62 forever, followed by 4 or play by conners. Now, stuck on 66 forever.

Jeeeeezus can someone please tell Sheldon to stop shooting logo threes that are just straight up bricks???

But don't worry, he got a steal earlier so it's fine.

Hadaway and Sheldon repeatedly get beat off the dribble for easy buckets. Matador defense.

Is Burris hurt? We need a shooter and fresh legs.

Clayton Lite with an 0-Fer when we needed it the most. Dude needs some humble pie. He SHOULD be benched for a half. Instead Boals will lengthen the leash. He punishes guys like Kuany and Burris and lets Diet AJC repeatedly embarass us.

I wish ESPN did +/- for college games. I’d love to know Hadaway’s tonight. Gritty win but Chaos was awful most of the night.

Um, hey, we won.

I'll admit that second half was ugly. But credit to the boys for getting better on D in that half and gutting it out when it counted. Loved seeing Pavs get fouled twice late, where he won the game for us.

All the issues have been noted on this thread, but I will take a 3-1 MAC start and run with it.

Incredible to win this game with Captain Chaos playing one of the worst games I have ever seen a division-one guy play. He was on another planet tonight.

Heck of a win.

The UMASS boards will be hopping tonight.

I will say it again: Pav is the most clutch player in the league.

Hit a huge three when we were stuck on a number, then went 4-4 from the line in the last minute. 10 points, 10 assists, 0 TO. Such a luxury to have him with ball in crunch time.

Another good win where Ohio just never makes it easy on themselves. But I'll take it.

I must have missed the part where they were better on D.

I love you dude but can we retire "Captain Chaos?" He is now "Rear Admiral Afterthought." The Chaos part is what made him great. He is still a good dude but sometime, somewhere he decided he was going to be "Private Press Clippings" and strut and flaunt while not backing it up.

Trust me...nobody hurts more than me when "Captain Chaos" struggles and continues to fire up 3's. Before we consider a nickname change, let's see how Chaos bounces back against Buffalo. I have faith that Chaos will find his inner Chaos again.

Hadaway almost had the ever elusive 7-7-7 game.

7 points, 6 boards, 7 turnovers.


Great win. Pavs. Simmons stepping up. Burris proving he can play.

Almost no Kuany tonight. Odd with Hadaway playing like balls.

IMO its not a bad call. He's been looking lost out there on defense and is very limited on the other end.

Imagine if Pav had consistent production around him too....

He hasn't been given the time to make mistakes and get comfortable. Would he have 7 turnovers?

😃😃😃 I will refrain from a nickname change out of respect for you FearLeon but if he poops the bed against Beefalo can we have the name change dialogue? Or do I need to draft the Chaos Doctrine to make the change? 😃😃

UMass made just 4 of 15 shots in the last 10 minutes.
