Northwestern shot 32% and won by 10+.  That's all you need to know.

They made 32-40 free throws and shot 7-18 from three.

If Curbelo were here; cinimod would be ripping on him.

Ace puppy is still a spot up shooter.

Is it too early to start worrying about qualifying for the NCAA Tournament? If PAMan can start worrying about FTs after 1 game, I think I can start worrying about the NCAAs after 14.

Where does “Ace puppy” come from? I’ve heard it referenced, but don’t understand it.

Iirc, Adam Miller's social media handle is Ace Wolf. LK Dog, who actually knows some ball, calls him ace puppy.

Miller transferred, ostensibly because he did not like being a catch and shoot off the ball guard. He wanted more lead guard opportunities. I am hearing he is even more of a spot up shooter for LSU.

One thing. Unlike Cinimod, I am not an insider. I did once have breakfast at a Holiday Inn Jr.

You and him don't know jack shit.  I've embarrassed both of you. Now run along back to Illinois Loyalty where you can "rah rah rah go team".

I put my name on the line. Made assessments off all the guys and team literally 9 months ago.  Flat out exactly what I said would happen,. is happening.

A season like this is where you were fucked having Adam Miller and Curbelo transfer out.  Those 2 would be your veteran backcourt on this team.

But Underwood isn't just a poor coach, he's a poor GM.  Bringing in a bunch of mercernaries isn't a way to build a team.
We can agree he's a mediocre GM because this isn't the 1st year where we've wound up with a team of confusing spare parts but Curbelo is going to lead a Big East team to a 9th place finish and Miller is a step up from RJM but is not any better of a shooter than Shannon, Mayer, or Epps, and can't play point.

You may want to watch the game before commenting. It is worse than you can imagine. Like Underachiever's losses the first weekend of the Tournament.
It did have Loyola vibes but like the junior high version.

Horrible game. Horrible team. Horrible officials.

Coleman Hawkins should get the Ralph Malph treatment. Just hold the ball and wait for someone else to come and take it.

Dainja clearly is STILL practicing how to throw an outlet pass from a defensive rebound. Again, Ralph Malph treatment.

Hate to agree with Dominic, but Clark does suck. He does appear to be injured, and it would have been good if Harris had not picked up two fouls in the blink of an eye.

Again, this team sucks. Looks like we're Temp0-4 and on the way to 0-4!

I am a former 5-star general. Or maybe it was 4-star.
Nichi claims a guard with a 1.3 assist-to-TO ratio is a good passer.

Had such high hopes for this season....almost even travelled to Vegas ( i hate Vegas)....glad I didn't. This team is a collective soul of nothing. Empty trips, 3'3'3' and again 1 more, we missed 4 let's shoot some more.

BU doesn't seem to have brought this team together at all...

Epps/Harris are our bright spots along with Mayer, (at times), TSJ could play half as well always as his scowl seems to be, we might be better.

Dain has alot of talent, doesn't seem the IQ is always there though, Hawkins should be balling out by now, he is not. Skyy will be back strong, but not for long I think. Melendez is a quiet kid, but busts his ass and still somehow looks disinterested all the time?

Transfer Portal next year prediction: Skyy, Hawkins, Melendez I would think for sure based on so far this season.
