Kelly is horrible tonight… I have never seen the team with so many whiners in my life.

Great job by Hadaway getting his 4th foul early in the 2nd half and continues to complain... Typical

Kelly spends more time in the air, jumping at guys, than on the court.

5 guys over 40%.....that's kind of insane. Holy crap....I love me some 3 ball shooters but that is some serious gym time those dudes are putting in.

Well we kept it pretty close for awhile. Got a good feeling this one is about to be a 30 point blowout soon.

Let’s face it guys, the game is turning into just about what we thought it would be. They are just so much better than we are. It’s ridiculous. Then, as usual, our antics show up.
Borna, let’s face it… Like I have said all year. The college game has turned into a three-point game. You have to be able to make them and you have to be able to defend them. We can’t do either.

As much heat as Sheldon takes on this board, Hadaway is challenging him for that not-so-coveted spot. He's the king of doing stupid shit when the team needs him most.
We are a better team next year without both of them.

Boals deserves to be fired for 3 reasons:
1. He wasted Pavs and Kelly
2. He stuck with Sheldon
3. He allowed Hadaway to be the most overrated jerk in OUr history this side of Bean Willis.

Kind of what Groce preached when he got here. He focused on running teams off the 3 line and recruited shooters in guys lik Kellogg and Dartis. I have not looked at what his Akron teams are doing but I would suspect they are still defending the 3. He has had some pretty good shooting teams since getting back to the MAC.

We’re playing different sports. We’re playing 1995 basketball against a modern offense with shooters.

That’s funny, wasn’t it just a week or so ago we were talking about the bobcats needed to slow the game down against the good guys. They can score 90 against crap teams, but they can’t beat good teams playing like that

Kelly misses the back cut again

Simmons is great if we can keep him. Kelly and Kuany have shown a lot of flashes. If Elliot can stay healthy, we just need a PG next year.

I'm embarrassed for Ohio basketball. I know it's unlikely but I really believe they need to fire Boals at the end of the season unless they make an improbable MAC Tournament run.

Every player not named Kelly and Simmons needs to go.

Giving credit where credit is due, Miami is one solid, solid bball team. Sharpshooters galore, and back door cuts by the bushel full. The talent deficit is undeniable

Those are two different things. Once you’ve recruited a roster that can’t shoot, you have to play the hand you’ve dealt yourself.

Hadaway and Kuany on the floor at the same time. First time this year? Something I've been calling for since early in the season.

Hadaway with as many turnovers as points halfway thru 2nd half. Good solid senior leadership on display.

Correction: Those guys are and were both saints on the court compared to Denny Rusch. I actually had this confirmed recently talking to a guy who had played against Denny. Said he still had the scars to prove it.

This is frigging embarassing. At least we both will have new coaches next year. There is NO WAY Steele doesn't turn this into another major job. And we have a dude who was hot 8 years ago and because he dances and knows Gary Trent he gets free press. F that. In that case let's hire Curtis Simmons.

Miami is a very good team BUT Ohio is awful.

We have fallen FAR behind the top of the MAC!
