The defense hasn't been great, but it's not like they're gonna hang 100 on us. We simply cannot score the ball. We've taken our fare share of bad shots, but we have also missed completely wide-open looks. Easy way to get run out of the gym.

Remember when MCI wanted to be playing Alabama in the early season? ROFL

A lot of short jumpers inside the paint and no defense to block… we need an enforcer… too many open shots

This one is on Cooley. He has just as much talent as Notre Dame, if not more. Any impact he has had on this game is invisible. The one advantage for certain ND has is a couple years with the same players.

Wow. They are really bad.
Looks like we hired the wrong guy.

Well, I guess we are the worst team in the conference until we prove otherwise.

Liked that stroke from McKenna. A really good shooter with sweet mechanics.

Epps is a disaster with the ball in his hands. Open players around him, two defenders on him and he is wasting all of it.

Gotta have shooters in todays game, it's that simple. You need 2-3 guys that can knock down open 3pt shots, or it will eventually lead to you playing from behind on most nights.

We have Seton Halls offense, but unfortunately not their D.

Well, I guess we are the worst team in the conference until we prove otherwise. DePaul looks much improved, Small but the ball continuously moves with shooters. We are in trouble

Well this result is much more embarrassing than my worst fears. No offense, poor defense. Have not seen a lack of effort and hoping that this is just an aberration. My real concern is what happens next. Is this just going to be an incredibly bad shooting team or can someone breakout? Defense? Seems to no longer be something this program can do. They have made Norte Dame look like an elite team. Hate to see these performances when the program is trying to get the fans back.
