6:30 start, snow in forecast for some, everyone's sick, crappy Iowa team, NIT bid on the line. Need I go on?

Less than half filled

Grant stop playing with yourself and go straight up when you get a great pass.

 

[zappaa]

Grant with two opportunities to go straight up and hesitates

Did you forget about the B1G tournament

 

[FrankZ]

That’s better Grant 👏

 

[FrankZ]

Nice take JW

 

[zappaa]

lol he ran

 

[koleszar]

Hayes awarded with a participation trophy. Other than that, have no idea why he's on the floor he brought nothing but making it a 5 on 4. Good sub Pike. SMH

 

[FrankZ]

Loathe airball 3s

 

[Rokodesh]

Iowa is the only team in the conference more sloppy than us

They should be trying to score inside on every basket. Iowa sucks, but we treat every possession like house money.

 

[RUinOhio]

undisciplined

 

[zebnatto]

Pike’s “Stand Still” offense

 

[bethlehemfan]

Hays is so bad defensively. He’s pretty much unplayable

 

[tm_nj]

when we get a lead we get sloppy with the ball and stop playing defense

Consistent theme all season

 

[ScarletDave]

Harper too unselfish. Take over against this crap team

Why is he out there as the 6th man, first guy off the bench? I literally busted out in laughter when I heard he was coming in…..10-2 before he entered, 10-7 now after he entered

 

[BillyC80]

Too many missed opportunities, sloppy, and fortunate to have the lead. Gotta get Ace and Dylan heated up.

 

[RUJMM78]

Bailey and Harper have taken only one shot in first five minutes of game.

Terrible on defense….

 

[FrankZ]

Nice reverse 2nd ref 👏

 

[FrankZ]

Say what PJ?!

 

[FrankZ]

 

[zappaa]

Walk Sanford

 

[koleszar]

Pike come on with Hayes now, how many minutes are you going to roll with slow a foot.

 

[RUJMM78]

No defense by either team.

 

[Rokodesh]

Horrible defense

 

[Joey Bags]

They counted the one Bailey apparent 3 as a 2

 

[FrankZ]

Walk Sanford

And then of course buries the tres

 

[zebnatto]

our offense is so disheartening.

 

[BillyC80]

Shooting well from three and only up 4, soon to be 2. We need tighter D and I would like to see us press them a little.

 

[FrankZ]

Give Davis some run

 

[Simce91]

Give Davis some run

Coming in after the break

 

[Rokodesh]

sandford is gonna score 60 on us
