They had legs in the first half?They are gassed. Second game in a row the legs gave out in second half.
Boo and Chase still in. I’ll join you.Gonna go find a For Sale sign and stick it on Collins' lawn, Friday Night Lights style.
Legs or no legs, getting blown out at home by this Michigan team is really poor. You can count on NU hoops faltering when there are expectations almost every time.Get Boo and Chase out. Not our night. Team is gassed. Sunday is damn near must win. Save some legs while we have the chance.
Should’ve pulled them at the 10 minute mark
Listen. Chill pill.Gonna go find a For Sale sign and stick it on Collins' lawn, Friday Night Lights style.
He played them too many minutes in our blowout wins over neb/minn, paying for it nowBoo and Chase still in. I’ll join you.
The way he’s managed minutes the last 3 games has been beyond horrible. Minnesota chase and boo both played 37 minutes when that game was never in doubt, staters should’ve been pulled after the 4 pt play in IC and having the starters in now is idiotic.Listen. Chill pill.
I’m not saying Collins is above criticism, that this wasn’t a pathetic performance, that it wasn’t a very harmful loss, or that it’s impossible this is the start of the annual meltdown to the end. I AM saying they could go out and simply beat Wisconsin in a couple days and be back in just fine shape. It’s too early to declare them dead. Let’s at least try to enjoy them being in the mix for a couple more weeks here.The way he’s managed minutes the last 3 games has been beyond horrible.

It’s a total overreaction to be ready to fire Collins, I own that. I’m not real optimistic about Sunday though, especially after the past two second halves so I’m not real optimistic about the Tourney chances at this point.I’m not saying Collins is above criticism, that this wasn’t a pathetic performance, that it wasn’t a very harmful loss, or that it’s impossible this is the start of the annual meltdown to the end.

If they’ve blown this at the end of the year and had more games like today… I’ll be right there next to you calling for changes in our program, just like I was last year.
I agree that firing Collins tonight would be an overreaction.It’s a total overreaction to be ready to fire Collins, I own that. I’m not real optimistic about Sunday though, especially after the past two second halves so I’m not real optimistic about the Tourney chances at this point.
Being concerned about Sunday is also really fair. We sorta get a final chance to recover at Columbus after that, and then a final final miracle opportunity to recover by beating Purdue. That’s about the time I’m willing to go full panic rage mode.It’s a total overreaction to be ready to fire Collins, I own that.

Yeah I agree. I looked it up and Chase and Boo are 8th and 9th in total minutes played the last 2 weeks. Chase appeared to hit a wall yesterday and I think if Boo hits one Sunday we could be in deep doo doo.Being concerned about Sunday is also really fair.

Roper is not a starter. Make up your mind. You have to put five guys out there. Should Roper play? Or should the starters play? Do you want us to just go back to the locker room with 5 minutes left?Why is roper even in the game? Why is any of our starters in?
The why were starters there is a pretty irrelevant argument.Roper is not a starter. Make up your mind. You have to put five guys out there. Should Roper play? Or should the starters play? Do you want us to just go back to the locker room with 5 minutes left?
