The teams playing for the SEC and acc championships. When healthy, we were as good as anyone.
A lot of people on here must have forgotten that or think that was a 5 game fluke or something.The teams playing for the SEC and acc championships. When healthy, we were as good as anyone.
Wasnt butler out for the Gonzaga game? I’m not buying the injuries are why we regressed argument. It contributes but first last night butler wasn’t injured. He just didn’t play. Pope said his scans were perfect and he was planning to play him in the second half. I also think Robinson wasn’t going to play pg hell or high water so with butlers uncertainty he went ahead and had the procedure. This seems like a chaotic cal season with players and agents dictating things at least with Robinson and the well known pact he had with pope.Also beat the WCC champs, Gonzaga.
We had a good team this season, it just fell apart due to injuries.
That UK team was at best a top 15-20 team with Noel. This Duke team is top 5. If they play without Flagg they are still top 25 team.The year nerlens noel got hurt comes to mind. Watch Duke fail without flagg.
Then you don’t understand sports. We won that Gonzaga game because for 1 half the team rallied and JR stepped up when KK went down. That is common to happen for a half or a game. But doesn’t last for extended periods.Wasnt butler out for the Gonzaga game? I’m not buying the injuries are why we regressed argument. It contributes but first last night butler wasn’t injured.

I saw this and had flash backs to the past seasons.

But damn, if we’d have hired Golden or Pearl we’d really be killing it.It blows my mind how little critical thinking some people have. We started the year off hot, looked great until the injuries started pouring in, then we still looked pretty good (even better at times) and are in line for a top three seed in the NCAAT. This team proved they can compete with and beat title contenders. At some point in time you’re missing too many starters. This season should go down as a frustrating success in isolation, and a sign that really good things are in our future in context.
Yeah people get mad because we question Butler toughness when I heard the statement last night he would play if it was the championship game I laughed and said my goodbyes to him. Tired of the if Butler was healthy arguments. Dude missed more games then half the fans and couldn't even give us 10 minutes yesterday. That's not the toughness I remember or wanna see.Wasnt butler out for the Gonzaga game? I’m not buying the injuries are why we regressed argument.

Duke has notified the committee Flagg will play in the tourney to keep their seed. We need to do the same with Butler even though we're not in tight with the committee like Duke.The year nerlens noel got hurt comes to mind. Watch Duke fail without flagg.
If we had a dislike button I would use it. Since we don't I just say TERRIBLE TAKE.Wasnt butler out for the Gonzaga game? I’m not buying the injuries are why we regressed argument.

Jaxon tooThats funny, duke can keep their seed but we can't? Of course we should tell the committee we are going to play butler.
Here's the story. Notice Gavitt says they're keeping an eye on other injuries but he wouldn't clarify who. You can be sure that's aimed directly at us.Thats funny, duke can keep their seed but we can't? Of course we should tell the committee we are going to play butler.
I hope you’re buzzed up or drunk. If you’re making a post like this completely sober you need to quit watching sports. SMH…wowWasnt butler out for the Gonzaga game?

Alabama loses Nelson and gets blown out by 20. Injuries matter.It blows my mind how little critical thinking some people have. We started the year off hot, looked great until the injuries started pouring in, then we still looked pretty good (even better at times) and are in line for a top three seed in the NCAAT. This team proved they can compete with and beat title contenders. At some point in time you’re missing too many starters.
