BU 65 @66 Western Carolina FINAL....

[dogsrus]

It's not excuse for leadership.

This team needs an on-court leader. Sammy was clearly that guy. Someone needs to step up. And this point is completely independent of Les - plenty of stuff will be said about him, so I'll leave that part to the rest of you.

Hope you didn't think I was accusing you of using the injury excuse.....sorry.

Agreed...a leader would be nice. DD...AW...DSE....anyone...Beuhler...Beuhler....

19-23 FT for wc
3-9 from the field on WE
WL 7 pts.....
MK only 3 mins tonight?

[bugregshu]

how many lay ups did we miss tonite?

I know DD missed 4.

If you're keeping track, then why ask the question. All the passive-aggressive posts the last few weeks are getting a little stale, don't you think?

[peoriaspitfire]

Not sure if I'm more upset that we lost vs. a bad EIU team or a total meltdown tonight. This was a big game for the boys after a bad loss and could have brought this group together with SM and TB down.
I guess we didn't have a chance at NIT anyways.

Losing at home is always bad. Losing at home to EIU is disgusting, but I was at that game and they were the better and more motivated team that night.

You haven't heard? Les coaches his players to miss layups and freethrows! No.....he recruits guys that can't make layups and freethrows. No.....he recruits guys that can't stay healthy. I don't know anymore, but it's always 100% JL's fault. Bradley should have just fired the guy after 6 games and we would have won this game!

Its been 8 years the record and results speak for themselvs, this pity party doesnt work anymore.

I ordered a steak the other night - Medium. I'll be d*mned if the cook didn't make it medium-well. THANKS A LOT, JIM LES

Should we invoke the 24 hour rule.....like it will make a difference.

The season is OVAH.........

Oh well we should be good next year with Manisslo and Brown back.

and neither of those are guaranteed to be back at this point

[BUfan14]

3-9 from the field on WE

I am really sick of watching him play....that is an unacceptable shooting stat for a big man. To miss layups at the rate he does as a 4th year player is just terrible. I don't normally criticize individual players much, but he just makes me sick with his horribly weak/terrible play.

[bu fan 9]

just another nite.

[Out of Balance]

Small Ball, Small Ball, my ass Our players deserve better tonight
We will NEVER WIN PLAYING SMALL Up by 12, go small and the rest is the same BS

Oh yes, it will. JL will likely guaranteed get another year if SM's can get the redshirt. Carver Funeral Home?

JL says the Braves only go to the line 5 times 2nd half....15 1st
didn't like the bigs rbs....starting bigs only 5 rbs combined
mental errors ......missed lay-ups by the vets

CW did a nice job and willo continue to get time if he keeps producing
wc makes 19 FTs
this game should sting when they see the tape

Please, I've been accused of being in the mega-pro-Les crowd and the mega-anti-Les crowd in the same page in a thread before, don't worry about it

I really don't know who will be the leader, and we have a few games before Valley season to figure it out, but we need to find one by then. Earlier this season, with Sammy in, I felt comfortable in those close games. It sucks to be forced to fill that leadership role, but if we can't fill it, rebounding and turnovers won't matter one bit, frankly.

National COY. No one could do better. Ever.

How do the bigs get more rebounds if they aren't in the game more? Did we play any zone tonight down the stretch?

We have to win this Saturday at home...no matter who plays.
