You cant win a national championship every year. This team has a lot of momentum heading in to next year with that second half effort. They could have given up, but fought hard until the very end.

Sometimes you just have to tip your cap to the other team, it’s not like they were some joke. Any tournament team can knock you out. That’s what makes March so great. I look forward to seeing us in the tournament again next year.

Damn you need to go follow another sport. No one is asking for a national title. Just show a breath of life. He’s boring, our program is now boring, we are at the bottom. Sorry to tell you.

Agree in part. Would have loved to seen this team with Cook playing full time and team player. Trae off the bench in limited minutes would have been ideal IMO.

At minimum 50% of the basketball minutes the last half of the year were nonchalant don’t give a frick effortless minutes.

We’re playing in the great value brand of March. Our basketball program is shite.

This team had plenty of moments like that. If you ignored them, that's your fault

Jesus…some of you will defend it until the bitter end. Give it up. We just lost to North Texas in the damn NIT. Sorry we can’t get excited for that or for next year of the same stuff.

We sucked against crap competition in our own gym. You don’t tip your cap to the kind of team we played tonight - you run them outta the gym.

Most common phrase used by McMen. We could be in the final 4 if moral victories counted for something.

In 2 different threads he keeps saying any tournament team and they aren’t in the tournament for nothing. The damn NIT, not THE tournament. Such a stretch.
