just can’t have a let down. I don’t think they will but last night was a huge win.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Anybody can beat you. Stay focused and win your home games. We have chance for some breathing room right so stay focused.

[WVUALLEN]

Our good shooters are passing up wide open shots instead of pulling the trigger.

Ugly start. This will be a set back if they don’t start showing a little effort.

And you’re right. Awful shot selection in this game. Just awful.

 

[WVUALLEN]

In serious trouble. Small playing horrible. Entire team on hangover from Saturday.

You can't afford to continue losing to teams that you should beat at home.

Also can’t continue to rely on Harris shooting the ball on every offensive possession

 

[WVUALLEN]

Losing by 13 to a bad team.

It’s either because we are ranked or because I can actually watch the game this evening g since it’s not in espn+. Maybe I’ll turn it off and see what happens…

9 pm start on a week night. Who thought that up.

 

[WVUALLEN]

4 of 22 from 3. Call it a night.

Flu bug making its rounds through the team.

When you play only 8, you will lose your legs.

 

[locustwv]

I wasn’t able to watch or listen. Looks like it was a bad night.

Is this true?

Is this true?

Yes. Small played with the flu last night as did Tenner.

 

[locustwv]

Yes. Small played with the flu last night as did Tenner.

Well that explains a lot.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Well that explains a lot.

Also Yesufu

Basketball losses happen. This is an unfortunate one but you aren't hearing anyone from the team talking about the flu. Devries mantra is "No Excuses". Just move on and prepare for Saturday.

Iowa State didn't seem to have any issues against their bottom feeder at home.

There is a pattern forming or already. Giving 110% to beat top teams in the country on the road and at home. With a short bench and 2 days rest they seem to not have the legs left for a bad team. Flu didn't help.

This is a bad loss and not a good look if the tournament is your goal. You can call it an excuse all you want but that's what is showing.

This is the kinda games I was expecting this year and we haven’t seen hardly any. Devries is a great coach. Definitely exceeded my expectations already. I think in the years to come we will be a force to be reckoned with.
