Just setting em up for the epic second half comeback. Only down 12 to Valpo. When he gets paid, do you think he feels the slightest bit guilty?
Honestly, I believe Muller is the kind of guy that does feel guilty. That’s what makes this all so difficult...he’s truly a good dude that wants ISU to be relevant. He’s just in over his head.

After Mahoric sets the high screen, why doesn’t he flash to the hoop for a give and go? He seems like once he sets the screen, he’s just in the way.

When did Fleming learn to shoot the 3? I like it . . . if he can keep it up. Horne needs to take this game over.

How many times have they blocked a layup. Does Dusan know he is playing against a lefty

when Krikee gets the ball on the block, they have to double him and then cover the wings, he’s not passing back to the point through the bodies in the lane

Really, what was the plan down by 3, with 4 seconds left and try and draw 2 free throws. Basketball IQ is so bad. I don't know why I wasted my time watching. We are the 10th seed, is there a way to not be invited to the Lou?

Once again allowed too any offensive rebounds, especially on missed 3s and at critical times. We are definitely a Thursday play-in team.

Can we go in as the 11th seed? We just got swept at home by Valpo and getting swept at home last weekend by Indy St. Just when you think we can’t sink any lower, we do. #candan. #firemuller

Rebounding, whatever it takes to lose a game we find. I know others are tired of the get rid of Dan stuff on every thread. But what else is there to discuss? We’re a half step above Chicago state. 7 in a row to Valpo?!!

Seruouls gave up 2 offensive rebounds
Abdou was able to tip it, but there was no one where he was tipping it. Stallings spent time in practice on where to be for an offensive tip. We were masters back then at getting offensive rebounds off tips from missed free throws.

The positive is that I don't think there are many teams afraid to schedule us now.

Bright side...Reeves quit taking the ball soft to the basket and didn't dribble the ball too high into double team. Horne played a hell of a second half with no rest. He could get that mid range shot against Valpo and Bradley. Boyd needs to get healthy and Strong needs to find his stroke. We need a sub to be a threat in the paint. Last 2 Valpo shots were bad but resulted in long rebounds for them. 5 games in 9 days is a lot of basketball for a young team.

I just think it might be time for a new voice. I don't base my opinion on Tournament Appearances. I base it on the in ability to recruit smart basketball players over the last 3/4 years. Once that team didn't get into the tourney, fine, it's ok, you got screwed, what ever. But you should have had some decent basketball players knocking on the door to get into RBA. Instead we kind of have been a revolving door of 'Ok' athletes, not basketball players. And now it will take 3/4 years to change the image and mold, no matter when that process starts. The inability to get the 'high' side out of multiple recruits is on the coach and the staff he brings in. I know financially we won't be able to do it, so no reason to complain. But look at what the girls coach has done, maybe she should run the guys program for the rest of the year and her staff. Or maybe force Dan to hire her cousin/brother, how ever he is related to her, to be on his staff too. They need something, because what ever Dan is doing, it's not working.

Exactly. At least Chicago St had the wherewithal to call it a season. We will keep on playing. We will keep on losing. We will go to St Louis and get shit kicked on Thursday night and muller will return next year for year 10 and continue to suck. Thank you f’ing Larry Lyons.
