Big East tourney thread

[Anti-Homer]

Mediocrity sucks, thanks Steele. It could be worse next year no bigs.

So i'll as the million dollar question, were Ramsey or Miles dressed tonight as i had to listen on the radio. I'd never thought they'd shoot 40% from 3 and lose. Free's 5 turnovers hurt. Funny thing is they'll likely be back up there next week for the NIT.

Irrelevant question. We obviously didn't need the depth at the post positions, though Butler's bigs were 16 for 21 with 39 points. Despite this, their only legitimate big played a mere 9 minutes. You just can't make this stuff up. Steele must have a million four leaf clovers in his backyard. That, and a big pocket donor-board member contact.

You are obsessed with money donors. Did you get fired by this big money donor for goofing off at work?

BTW Miles was on the bench. I didn't see Ramsey but his four minutes was all we could expect from him healthwise.

Steeles father in law is one of the largest donors, so it is kind of a big deal that we will be stuck with him for a few more years.

If that is the case get over it because you are pissing in the wind. BTW Today was a day for upsets as 6th Seed Providence going down to 11 seed DePaul.

Mman,

May I remind you, that it was you, not me, who was caught stealing 85 cents from our petty cash drawer to buys a Zagnut from the vending machine.

Thanks.

That makes three years of missing the tourney much more palatable. Please, PLEASE, do not play in the Not Important Tournament. In all seriousness, Steele should ask Tony Bennett, Chris Beard, or dare I say.....Pat Kelsey, if he could watch their prep. practices for the tourney. Just for perspective. Not even joking for one minute. Coaches do it all the time.

Chitown,

You're the 2nd most measured poster on this board after yours truly (btw Board, thanks for the acknowledgement) followed closely by Edgecliff. What do you think of Travis Steele as a coach? Try and pretend he coaches a team you don't care for like San Jose State. BTW, congrats on DePaul.

you know your momma told you to never lie, especially about money and standing. She will be very disappointed in you.

Simply put, inexcusable.

Carter taking two shots in the final 2 minutes of regulation is as inexplicable as can be imagined.

Butler hit two three and was up six when a Carter three after a Carter two brought us back to 1 point down?

MM:

Well, if my recall is correct, one of those two Butler three’s was directly attributable to the fact that Bo Hodges snared an offensive rebound that Carter misplayed. Why else was Carter in the game?

Coach Steele decided to stick with Carter. He has the right to make that decision and now must also bear the responsibility for tonight’s result.

If you say so. Was Free in the lineup at the time or was Carter the only big. You know had Jones had 2 points in the second half after having a great first half X wins. Hey if Paul makes one of the many at the rim shots he missed, X wins. As for the misplayed rebound, I guess Carter three is a net-zero at the time but what about the other three Harris made? The fact is if Carter was not in the game what big would have gotten that rebound and who they have gotten a three to nullify the other three? The blame game is easy to do and Carter has not been the only player, coach, or team manager that has disappointed this year. I take the road that Covid was to blame and not playing a game for a month while only being able to have three practices along with 2 major injuries made this season ripe for failure.
