After the game T.J. McConnell did win the Mark Barwig award, however.

Can someone explain for those of us who (thankfully) didn't watch?

Re: Classless Thugs - chicard - 03-07-2015

Agreed.  Very annoying watching them celebrate after every basket when they're already up twenty.  And we'll see how they react when Pac 12 refs aren't there to bail them out with phantom calls.  Hope they get knocked out early.

Build a team to beat them.  What pieces are in place and what pieces are not in place to achieve that?  Could the current team ever consistently beat the strong programs in the Pac12?

Didn't watch the game. Judging from chicard's description, I can see what some would consider it classless. But what makes them thugs?

Did they gain the confidence of travellers, before strangling them and robbing them of their valuables?

I watched good chunks of the game.  it was very chippy, and it went both ways. 

without question, McConnell is the guy you always wanted to cheap shot, but I also wish we had someone who could distribute the ball the way he did Saturday.

the 5th foul he drew on Chasson looked like the final straw of chippiness.  basically a 1 man press up about 20.  Chasson definitely pushed off and fouled McConnell.

some of the FR showed some moxie late in the blow-out.  Humphrey will be a big key going-forward for the team.

Start with a new head coach and build from there

It could have finished third behind Utah & Arizona with better coaching, but it would take a deeper roster to compete for the crown

I'm with Winflop - Dawkins must go.  It's sad we will have to watch another year of mediocre play with very good and coachable talent. 

As for Chasson's 5th fowl, it was out of frustration.  As our top playmaker and a senior leader, he should not have lost him composure there so his mistake.

The guy that bothered me was the seven footer -Terw...(sp).  He showed very little class and was being very pushy around Nastic.  I would like to think that Lute would not have allowed that kind of BS, especially when they are up by 20.  I hope it put a little bit of controlled anger into our team.  The only way they are dancing is to win the tourney.  It's now or never time and this team could still make some magic....or they could just fold like a house of cards. 

Hat's off to the women!  Maybe they can get back on track and make a run.

What about the first four birds, are they still fully stocked?
