    Quick what are the odds on this parlay?

    I’m pretty sure if you take $20 on initial bet and let the winnings ride on the next bet you would have made over $600,000 if odds are close to even.

    I actually think Saturday is a must win. And Seton Hall is bad right now and Aiken has been hurt but I am sure he will be back when they play Xavier. All games will be a struggle if this team can’t find ways to make shots. Pretty much a mid 60’s scoring team now. That won’t get it done. It’s shouldn’t be hard to get to 11 league wins but they won’t do that.

    If SH is bad right now, what are we? Asking or a friend

    Then the season is over because that isn't happening.

    agree.
    Where is the fire with these guys ? Or are they just that inept as shooters ? I know it's not his nature but it's time Steele just went full on Bob Knight and exploded on these guys. Obviously being their pal isn't working. If this play keeps up I can see Nunge saying, " enough of this shitshow, I'm hitting the portal".

    Yeah, there is just no urgency. You're playing a top-20 team and coming off a tough loss, yet we were behind 12-3 at the first TV timeout and fell behind by like 16 in the first half.

    Just no excuse to come out so flat game after game after game after game after

    Would this team be better if Paul and Nate didn't come back? I'm just wondering because Dwon would have been game 1 starter at point guard and been able to grow into his role that by now may have been bearing some fruit..maybe Colby is more aggressive in looking for his shot. Could be way off base, but something i have been thinking about the last few games.

    And maybe our freshman get a chance to get some much needed experience in the non conference. You can't continue to pull top 100 recruits and park them on the bench all year. They're going to bolt.
