So that is it for the season

Too bad for us fans but I have to admit if it were not for the injuries that got the young guys on the court, I wouldn't be very excited about next year. Seeing the young guys hold their own and Mart continue to excel even without Barney or Leach on the floor is really encouraging. When you consider most players, if healthy, improve year over year sometimes dramatically, next years team could be way better than I was thinking at the beginning of this season.

KJ flashed a ton early at least from an attacking the ball basket perspective. 2nd best at breaking down a defender off the dribble I’ve seen as a freshman at NU. Upside was clear from the jump.

Gelo needed a little bit to flash his athleticism and jump shot. Still needs to get more comfortable to really show his ceiling.

Fran has cussed out his last referee

Seems to be a good coach with a solid (but not elite program). Chris Collins with similar outcomes is being idolized and extended while Fran is out. That in itself is a perk of being and staying at northwestern. It would be very difficult for Chris to ever get fired from NU.

I will miss Fran. Defintley an entertaining guy to watch because you never knew what you were gonna get. I’d rather have a fiery villain rival than a boring guy.

I can see where they are coming from. Yes, he got them to the dance 7 times (and would've been 8 if not for COVID), but he never got them past the 2nd round, was upset in back to back seasons (2021 with sr. year Garza as a #2 in the 2nd round and 2022 with Keegan Murray as a #5 in the 1st round), and has been trending in the wrong direction the past four seasons. The offense isn't elite anymore, and the defense has gone from mediocre to terrible. I think it's the right move, there are definitely a number of midwestern up-and-comer coaches in lower leagues who would jump at the opportunity.

Hmm. Well, worst of luck to them going forward.
