It’s just unfortunate, we’ve shot well all season but can’t seem to find the range here when it counts. Currently 33% overall and 30% from deep. Still a lot of game to play but we need to start pecking away at that lead soon.

Popoola being guarded last series by Giles. Despite his 7” height advantage, he didn’t attempt to shoot over him. We need someone to get hot.

When you’re not used to expending effort on defense and all of a sudden you have to

Not sure why we turn down open 3s to drive. We lose ball in traffic or Berg blocks it.

Total garbage. I wish I were not watching but stuck in this effing bar.

Pretty much puts the whole season in the toilet.

Giles is having a night. He is a great shooter but when you bank one in head on like he did before half it is his night.

Doubt this coach will ever be good enough to get us to a tourney
Nobody listened he is not the main problem but is great against cupcakes but folds under pressure of bigger better shooting team Tulsa will give him an extension just watch well Nit starts Monday for us fau wsu and charlotte ou and many more but green may be out for nit i bet usf will be a 10 point favorite tomorrow

Problem with this team and coach. Ok talent eye but he ruined this team by not finding a big. Bherend amazing season but he is more a stretch guy. On top of that he is just too nice to build a strong defensive team which helps win games when you are not shooting well. Great season but we are where we deserve. Third seed AAU, a very weak league

What? I don't think so.

We were exhausted from last night. Green was likely more susceptibile to injury because of being exhausted. Then Behrend fouled out because he was forced to foul against taller players while playing no green. We pretty much were going to lose this game. This game feels like the 10 point lead is the closest we will get, and it will gyrate between 13 and 20 pt Wichita St lead. We were just not in a good position. Losing to Wichita St in semi's doesn't throw the entire season in the can. We will likely get a bid to the NIT, and if we get Green healed up, we could do something impressive there.

If this is a serious dislocated shoulder we won't get him back for the NIT. So the season might be over, at cause to injury, not anything else. We can't be without Green and Behrend, especially together.

i enjoyed watching our guys. Konkol assembled a pretty talented group. But we’ve beaten exactly two solid teams all season and all of the coachable things that were an issue at the beginning of the season are still an issue at the end.

At least we get into the NIT with Whiskeyta.

Getting both men’s and women’s teams into the NIT isn’t bad.

I might feel better if I believed we were building something but that is so rare nowadays. Kind of a crapshoot so it is win now or forget it seems like.

I am at FC Tulsa so no post-game listening.

Almost had all the pieces for the NCAA. No rim protector so it was live and die from the three. And that’s exactly what we did. Mills made some great coaching set plays to get Giles open and Giles did a lot on his own. WSU bigger and stronger at most positions.

Everyone laughed when they said we don’t need rim protector’s lol I think a few of our team will be back next year from this team the non seniors will be poached and the rest will move to programs with more nil. Really Mills sold himself short by taking an aac job after going to the elite 8 when leaving oru remember self left our elite 8 team and went to the big 10 Illinois then the dream job Kansas mills won’t ever make the ncaa with wichita he will need to if he’s going to top 4 leagues
