Bad job by the media, imo.

Not one question for either player?

Mostly negative questions, about Dylan, Manny, turnovers, missing threes.

Tariq has been up and down this year, but he clearly saved our *** in this Penn game. Not one guy could ask him a softball question, like, “Tariq, it looked like you were really feeling it tonight. Can you describe your mindset coming into this game and then coming off the bench?”

This presser was a depresser.

The team has checked out and gave poor effort most games. Because they decide to come to life at the end of a game v a mid ivy team missing their leading scorer they don’t deserve hero treatment. Most who follow this team have already stopped caring this early in the season, media included.

Pike is (a) denying reality; (b) trying to keep his team confident; or, (c) doesn't know what he's looking at.

agreed...

I know we're all super frustrated about the state of the program. but one of our guys just had an insane performance and a buzzer beater win. i'd like to think we can still at least celebrate that and be happy for him/the team we all root for. instead the vibe on here and in the media was basically...."who cares...we stink...fire pike"

i'm not sure what it was like around here pre-pike but was it just "fire everybodys a$$" the moment it became clear we weren't dancing for the 15th year in a row?
