How can you score 79 points against the same team a week ago and then not break 50 today???Comment

I'm still in shock, I cannot believe this. That guy litterally THREW that shot up and it went in. This is absolutely absurd. I can't believe after everything we've gone through this season that it ended like that. I am seriously ready to cry.
Is it even safe to say that we should start gearing up for a game in the NIT?
Very disappointed, but still love my team. I just hope for the sake of Brooks McKowen and Grant Stout that we get a chance to play at least in the NIT, I don't see any way we can get into the NCAA Tourney. I hope that doesn't make me a bad fan.The Original PURPLE Wig Guy........ GO PANTHERS

No your right GP: No Dance....
I think we need to be huge BU fans tomorrow because a win gets them in. The NIT is not going to shut out the Valley. We probably cost ourselves a home game, but I really think that we are still in...Comment

I couldn't believe that last shot .... completely killed me ... hopefully we get NIT ... wouldn't bet much on it though ...Comment

THey just showed the highlights from the game on ESPN and it's WORSE seeing it again. I still (probably about an hour after it happened) can't believe it happened we HAVE to make the NIT, our season can't end that way. I hope that one of thos things happns, 1. We make the NIT and get a home game or 2. We make the NIT and play someone from near by that us fans could possibly travel to to watch.
Anyone think that Drake could make the NIT? I heard the annaouncers talking about it today during their game with SIU.
UNI vs. Drake or Iowa at the McCleod Center 1st Round NIT? (Sounds good to me)The Original PURPLE Wig Guy........ GO PANTHERS

No, Drake is not going to get in. The Valley will get two. Us and WSU are in...Comment

On the NIT-ology website the schools that r not in our confrence who r on the bracket are ST.

The NIT is now fully seeded. Regionalization is no longer a part of the bracketing process. We could play anybody, anywhere...Comment

we played a crappy half of a season. why don't we adjust,switch to a zone,try pressing,same thing every game,thats why teams figured us out, most of that game we played out at the nba 3 point line,same inept offense....two stud post players...gah..frustration.Comment

I think this one falls squarely on the coaches' shoulders. They either A) called terrible plays or B) didn't get on the boys for not running "better" plays. I couldn't believe the crap that was going on out there. And why wouldn't I believe it? It's been the same for weeks.
Honestly though, I thought the effort was there. I don't fault this one on the players. That comeback was gutty. And having the ball up 2 and to call literally a "nothing" play where we stand around and wait for the clock to hit 5 and just throw it up? Disgusting.
I believe coach Jake will develop into a great coach but lets not kid ourselves, he made some mistakes this year. Eating Timeouts today was inexcusable. There were a number of times down the stretch where we looked so out of sync and I think a more experienced coach calls a TO and sets something up. Instead the guys scramble around and take off-balance shots.
And the last play call was frankly flat out pathetic. There were 2.7 seconds left, not .27 seconds. You don't need the "hail mary" pass to get the shot off. WTF was that play call? Honestly?? There was absolutely no need for it. I saw it coming out of the first timeout and said to my roommate, "if they try that again it will get intercepted and this game is over". It was so predictable. Coaches call the plays and players have to execute, yes... but it is also up to the coaches to put these boys in a better position to succeed. I felt a number of times this was lacking tonight.
Its too bad.
I'm hoping for an NIT bid. I think there is a shot at a 7 or 8 seed. We'll have to see how it plays out.Comment

That last pass was to get to half court to call another timeout and then run a play. I like the decision, but they didn't run a good pick to get anyone open...
I agree, Jake did not have his best day today, however, I can't wait to see what this team can do in the NIT with 10 days of rest...Comment
