I kind of bailed after the Kent State game, so I appreciate those who are still dedicated and post on a Tuesday night road game..and have lived/died with these close games. The thing is...I don't really like this team. I don't like ... how we are now back to turning it over so often (this is a call-back to the RW era) that it often seems guys are playing for themselves out there guys chuck up ill-advised 3s at an alarming rate that we aren't running the same incredibly up-tempo offense we ran for the last several years that guys...AFTER A LOSS...post about their stats with various emojis on social media that no player has really stepped up to be a leader how the coach admitted that his team didn't take other teams (e.g. Army) seriously which is why they lost I know last year's team was legendary, but the turnaround has been so drastic. The team this year just isn't fun to watch at most times. And I am not very optimistic for the future with this coach and the players on this team. I am sad about this because I BLEED BLUE.

I don’t understand why we haven’t changed our approach yet. Clearly what we’ve been doing for the first 25% of the game hasn’t worked, try something new, ADJUST

Lol @ thinking Lance wouldn't leave if MSU came calling (which they won't)...

As frustrating as this season as a whole...and particularly last night...has been, the conference as a whole has shown no consistency. Just about any team has a shot in Cleveland as it stands. Not an excuse by any means for the stinkers the team has played at times this season but the season will be judged on what we do in Cleveland. If we somehow put together a run and win it again, all or most will be forgotten and forgiven...if not then most questions asked of this team will be valid.

We don't have a closer to physically make the shot. The real problem is we don't even seem to have somebody that WANTS to make the shot. CJ, Harris and Caruthers all wanted to win so bad that you could see it in their eyes. They locked in at the end of games (whether it be late in the half or in the final minutes). This team doesn't seem to have another gear. They just play. Mballa has been a bright spot but he absolutely waved at EMU's player on that go-ahead layup to end the game. A lot of this is on the players themselves but man do I feel like we have completely lost the mental edge which would probably be enough in the MAC this year. I'm at a loss with this team and worried about the future.

In 14-15, UB was 6-6 in league, rattled off 6 straight to close the season, followed by a MAC championship (only had to win 2 games due to the triple bye of the time). Prior to the 6-6, the team had lost 3 straight in league. Without going back to the old posts of the time, I'd wager that they look a lot like tonight's thoughts. While not disagreeing with most of what's been said about tonight's game, I'm still far from ready to throw in the towel on the season. This team has been in every league game right to the final buzzer (with the exception of one blowout win and one blowout loss) and just gets a bounce here or there and bingo, it's another big run. Are the rosters the same? Not exactly, but there isn't a reason to write this team completely off. As much as we probably should've won this game (and several others this season), we just need it to click down the stretch. As some people were saying earlier in the season "only 3-4 games in March matter" and while I dismissed it at the time, it's got some merit. This team still has a 6-12% or so chance to win the league (figure a 50-50 shot to win a single game x 3 or 4 games). Unlike last year, where the team was probably 50% or so to win (around 80% x 3). Would you give any team more than a 15-20% chance to win? I surely wouldn't bet any team in this league at 4-1 or worse odds and I'd gladly take UB at 10 or 12-1.

At least we have the Sabres to keep our sanity, oh wait...

After looking at the poor outside shooting tonight will they be looking to the transfer portal for a guard who can shoot the three don't know what we are getting in Skogman and it is likely too much to expect a lot from Chanse and Josiah as freshman. Not only did this game make me less optimistic for this year...I am starting to be a little concerned about next.

This team can’t shoot. We’re at rock bottom. Lost 3 of the last 4. The huge amount of turnovers, lack of energy on defense, and no purpose on offense is a red flag on coaching. I hated the hire and this is going downhill quick. Our supposed leaders in Jordan and Graves have both been awful for at least the last 6-7 games. Both are turn over machines lately. Might have been Jordan’s worst game of his career tonight. And I blame JW for not recognizing that he just needs to be benched, it’s like he was hungover out there.

Same... Always gonna be a big fan, but I’ve just got better things to do than watch this twice a week

Our starting PG had 0 assists and 7 turnovers tonight.

Let’s see....Williams, Johnson, Jordan, Bertram, Mballa, Segu, and Grant. All trash in the 1st half. Jordan is king trash Graves. Barely not trash. Not good though. Hardnett. Decent 1st half even though he got 4 minutes.

He’s been our best player, but ok

Omg this cameraman
