let's face it: this team was a 1st Rd KO

....and we simply got lucky by playing the worst 8 seed, probably in NCAA history. regardless, put us up against every other 8 seed, and we lose no sweat.

Get over it Blanch and enjoy the rest of the tourney. 0/10 troll thread.

If only we had played some other 8 seeds this year...

Like Northwestern or Wisconsin...

And beat them...

3-0 against 8 seeds this year.  

Solid dipshit analysis.

Been hanging out with CHICKEN LITTLE HERBIE?

True. This was statistically Izzo's worst offensive team he's ever had.

Izzo's offense still hasn't adjusted to the modern day style and is why he probably won't ever win another title.

It's not his offense, it's his defense. we generate Dame near zero steals. fucking zero. that's damn near impossible!!

What is "True"?

What? I'm more and more convinced you don't even watch college basketball.

Most teams run pretty much the same things offensively. Sure some have different wrinkles but this isn't rocket surgery. If anything, teams copy some of Izzo's sets.

The problem this year had nothing to do with schemes but rather execution. Mostly poor screening.

Now please break down the modern offensive style Izzo has not kept up with. TIA.

Yeah all that movement Kansas showed against us was really impressive. Iso step back 3s by Jackson and Mason taking it to the rack repeatedly drawing wimpy fouls.

Reaching in and trying to get steals works very well in middle school basketball.

Blunch's highest level of play.

blanch52?

I thought I would take a one day reprieve from just scrolling past your nonsense to try and educate you a little bit. But, it's just turned into me smacking you around. That's boring and unchallenging. It's like shooting fish in a barrel (someone can explain that to you). Anyways...just thought I'd let you know you have until midnight to try and learn something. After that, you're on your own again.

Well Izzo tried to get JJ. All I heard was this frosh class cab drive and get fouled. Yet we are pathetic, once again, at how many free throws we shoot. Mason had 13 points at the line against us. Why don't we ever have a guard do that?

Execution and screening are on the coaches. Izzo just had a bad year running the show.

It sure helps not to have undersized walk-ons setting the screens.

Oh, and you never let us know what part of modern offense Izzo can't keep up with.

As usual you back up your nonsense with, well, nothing.

He was 8-8. How do you get 13 points out of that?

Every one of those guys could get to the rim.

And still waiting for you to break down modern offense.

I resent you using "we" as an implication that I am on the same team as you Blanch.
