Lots of time but this team is hard to watch.. how does the talent level drop so much?

I should've started watching earlier. Scored 9 since I started.

I’ve seen very little of this team play, but my answer would be the loss of two players now in the nba. That’s a huge loss, and these guys are probably still finding their way. Plus, Cash and X were big personalities, the heart and soul of the team. That’s another void needing to be filled.

Given the first half, I'll take down 6 at the half.
Jesus, this team.

I can’t recall a tougher team to watch under izzo. Even the neitzel teams where he was the only one who could score

What happened though... Watts had games no one could guard him last year... Not even flashes this year. Fkn Hauser avgd what at Marquette? Consistency has always been Henry's deal... Shit. They just shouldn't suck so bad.

IMO this team hasn’t looked the same since the Virginia game got cancelled. Not hitting shots and just look checked out.

Yep. Looks like they want the season to be over.

They suck. And this was one of our most winnable games.

Haven’t played in weeks either and who knows what kind of practices they’ve been able to hold with the players out with Covid.

So, next year, it can be freshman lead team cause none of these guys are stepping up.

I just looked at the box score. I don't think this was good for their mental health.

Re: At rutgers... Already down 15...
I watched the Izzo presser. Surprisingly calm. Maybe he's just trying to put a spin on things because of the circumstances but he basically said today was a fluke and they're not going to turn the ball over like that again. And combine that with missing so many open looks...
Shrug. I'm glad I get to watch the team. Win or lose we luv em.

Re: At rutgers... Already down 15...
Agree with Steve.
No one knows the order of players illness, who could practice and when.
This did not look one of Izzo’s strongest teams before the season began. My opinion is COVID protocols have affected player development and ability to play as a cohesive unit.
No doubt Izzo is at his wits end. He’s never had a roster with so many highly rated players coming out of HS that aren’t looking like upper division Big Ten players. It’s like the roster has several players like Isaiah Dahlman who just never became the player he was projected to be.
Then toss Watts who starts the season penciled in to play PG and a few weeks ago says he’s not comfortable playing PG.
Izzo was going to have a challenging season before COVID. Now it appears he’s running out of time to right the ship.

Fluke? They’ve looked like this majority of the conference season. Interesting take by izzo.

Honestly haven't been that tuned in but I don't think that's accurate OTPT. Different problems in different games. They've been bad but for three games its defense and then the next game it's shooting and tonight it was turnovers. I think that's where he's going.

So they’re bad at everything?

I look at it like this. Sometimes you are bad at posting. Other times you are bad at making jokes. That doesn't mean that every single day you're both bad at posting and bad at making jokes. Sometimes you have a good post or three but there's an entirely separate thread where you and GW are e-sucking each other off over Gavin Schilling time zone jokes. The two flaws are not mutually inclusive.

I'm starting to come around to the idea that a very good point guard plays a role in your success.

Not to dismiss how bad this team looks at times but, like football season, 2020-21 will have a big asterisk by it.
But, my god, they look bad at times.

You can put an asterisk by it all you want but I'm not sure covid really would matter at this point with no pg and a terrible rocket and hauser

Possible. I thought early in the season rocket was doing unbelievable stuff. Creating three point shots off the dribble and stepping back. I don’t even care really. There’s a lot of bigger problems out there right now and this isn’t the first college team to drastically underperform during the pandemic. My thoughts are I hope the fans consider mental health, lack of practices and maybe this year is more difficult for college athletes than we understand. I see twitter mobs calling for players to never see the floor again. Just doesn’t seem like the right year for it in my view.

Last night was similar to the Minnesota game. Just awful shooting. Plus turnovers.
They played like they hadn't practiced in awhile.

I don't even know where to start so I'm not going to try. It's all gravy to me like I said. Even bad MSU basketball is better than no basketball. I hope Rocket gets his mojo back.
