I will need to know your stance on chalking before I throw my support behind you.

They showed Funderburk earlier. He was shopping at Raisin Rack (now closed) in Westerville when I was there one day a couple years ago. Dude is enormous. Looked like he could still play. That deer statue they showed after that last commercial is behind COSI, along Scioto Mile.

Amazing game for the Bucks and very happy for Bruce. Bucks seem to be wearing down. They've played more guys than IU, though.

I liked the play-by-play guy who subbed for Paul in the Pittsburgh game. He said interesting things and didn't sound like he was on autopilot. Some people prefer autopilot I suppose; to each everyone's own. Ron sounded like it was his bedtime in the 2nd half.

You must have been watching. I was listening to Stokes/Keeles and it was much more numbing than "fun". Great and satisfying win by the Bucks, but it was presented to me by the lowest energy broadcast team I've ever listened to.

Painter just can't solve Holtmann / Holtmann Legacy, lol. 3 straight losses to the Bucks - "hard to believe," indeed. But they have looked good 2 out of the last 4 games. If they keep playing like they did today, could win 3 or 4 more before the NCAA tournament. Got to close the deal and get...

Just alley-oop to Ivan vs that short lineup. Or let Bruce go off from 3, lol.

I was thinking Bucks need to be up 12 with 8 min left to have a chance. Cautiously optimistic. Purdue is playing hard now, though. Lead is looking shaky.

Rich kids like Arthur are often not the sharpest bulb in the shed because they never had to work for anything. No pressure at school to get A's, no reason to do the work it takes to grow as a person. Mike Brown, e.g. Hopefully he'll turn out to be much more effective than Tim Beck, at least.

That's what I'm saying. It looks like he's lost the team and 3 more losses would reaffirm.

If they lose out, that would be a situation, in the context of recent seasons, that typically leads to the coaching staff being fired. ... ...

Good effort on D? I didn't see much resistance to the hawkeyes' drives to get easy layups.

Not watching, but I'm guessing Iowa was in zone D when the Bucks went up 14-2, then switched to man-to-man and are now crushing on D. It looked like Sparty was in man-to-man for much of that game and Bucks never solved it, except for Bruce occasionally. Edit: ...or Dieb subbed in guys who can't...

Uttered toward the end of the Thad vs. Villanova game, "The aggressor really has the advantage with getting the calls late in the game." I had just tuned in, but appears to echo what others have said about non-physical teams getting screwed by the refs.
