TL; DR.
J/k.

Here are the relevant parts:

1) They knew Kofi can't shoot beyond 2 feet so took that away before it could develop.
2) They knew we didn't have an actual PG except for Curbelo who could actually read different ball screen defenses quickly enough so they switched them up.
3) They knew Curbelo will not shoot and score from 3 or even midrange for that matter.
4) They have a post who can actually shoot from 15 if has to, passes out of doubles, or score 1 on 1 (you know... your basic stuff a modern post does) so created really awful unsolvable problems for us.
5) He stated we did not bother to guard this said post beyond 3 feet for some unknown reason using a strategy of forcing him to take really difficult uncontested 8 footers.
6) They were better coached and prepared for months implying we fucked the dog since last summer.
7) Our staff did not prepare at all and fucked the dog especially this past week.
8) He says we should be happy and applaud our players for competing so well considering our staff were deer in the headlights and did fuck the dog in question.
9) He also somehow equates being down 9-13 pts the whole game is only 3 possessions.
10) And finally, he reminds everyone he gets an audience with the President and Chancellor of Illinois and you don't.

In summary - This rich expatriate guy says we should try and enjoy this loss. Coach Hulka will be like fine wine aging to perfection from this experience of learning about such complexities in life and basketball.

The shorter version is:
Jobu had it right all along.
Our staff got buttfucked.

I like Underwood

.....but he had a really really bad day. Moser handed him his lunch

Yeah. It is like getting a job interview for the position you have wanted your whole life, it was pretty much guaranteed you would get it if you just didn't do anything really stupid or showed up drunk, you would then be set for life, but you then started crying in the interview and couldn't answer any questions.

Yeah, I skipped thru all the sugarcoated bullchit.

Bottom line is their best win is still Drake, so I don’t give a damn what their metrics are and that’s that.

Good team? Maybe, but they were seeded #8 for a reason and it’s because they beat goddamn nobody. The excuse parade from most is enough. Underwood got outcoached and outclassed, the end...

While I do agree with most of this, Loyola can only play who is on Loyola’s schedule. They might’ve beaten an Illinois or anybody else in the B1G if they played them. Same can be said about Gonzaga. I understand they played a tougher non-con than Loyola, but there’s always teams that are better than what you think at a lower level. Hence the upsets in the tourney every year.
I didn’t know that. Thanks!

🤣🤣🤣 Come on now. I analyzed their schedule. If they were so great they would have went out and played a Gonzaga type Non Conf schedule.

They played at Wisconsin and that was it and got rolled and also lost to Richmond and yes I know what the excuse will be it was December. So I guess they got a ton better beating up the MVC and beating Bradley by 7. Effing BRADLEY. The excuses are getting stale at this point.

Scouting report was simple. Guard the 3 point line and handle Krutwig and what happened was Krutwig killed us and they didn’t need the 3 as they killed us from the mid range on in to Krutwig. Underwood got smoked...The end

This here sure is a lot better than making excuses for Underwood. I’ll take it.

I don’t see anyone making excuses for him. You’re the only one still on here trying to beat the dead horse.

Well, there’s two sides of the coin.

Those of us that know Underwood crapped the bed in epic fashion.

Then you’ve got everyone else doing the following. “Ball screens” “something and recover” “Loyola’s metrics” “Loyola should’ve been a 3 or 4 seed” and the list goes on and on and on.

Game starting time, they had more seniors, they had more NCAA experience, we had much tougher Conference tourney, a certain ref punks us, etc.

Almost none of you here are interesting enough to write more than two small paragraphs. Knock it off.

Spelling and grammar is hard.

Hey, fellas. Guess what? Jobu has never made a grammatical error. He’s fucking special, isn’t he?
