Yea, your mom

Yea, your mom

Your mom takes it, but won’t move on.

[Wingtee]

No question. It's frustrating as hell, and makes you feel like no lead is safe.

True , no lead is safe with us but let’s take the W and move on

 

[Wingtee]

Really don’t get the hate for White but old enough to remember Billy D getting hate when they went out early a lot.

Go gators. Enjoy this. This makes it a good season.

Our fan base can’t deal with a win.. as Dooley says “no fan base hates winning like Gator fans “
I’m ecstatic with the W

No, I will not take it and I will not move on. I refuse.

Dooley is a dumbass. All fan bases are the same.

These quotes, prior to the drought are why there is so much frustration. It is not one run by Nevada. It’s happened all season when we have a lead. We change the offense and it’s why these predictions were proven right.

We made 1 basket in about 10 minutes of game time from 11:00 when Locke hit his three until Nembards layup with 1:38 to go. It was about 7 minutes after our prior basket.

We did miss 9 shots, and lots of close ones, during that stretch, but that is part of the problem. We only took 10 shots for 10 minutes of prevent, allow the comeback, offense.

We took 43 shots in the other 30 minutes for about a 50% more aggressive pace. Of course fouls and other aspects (NV offensive rebounds) contributed, but it’s a clear pattern at this point when we have a lead.

The main difference is ww were trying things and ultimately took longer on some possesions in the first half and the first 7 min of the 2nd. In the last 13 we refused to take a quick layup or push any offense until 7 seconds left. Meaning if the first action was guarded we got no shot, a bad shot or a turnover. I rather us score 90 and embarrass an opponent vs holding the ball ensuring the other team gets back in if they can score consistently

Our possessions from the 11:00 minute mark to Nembhard's layup:
10:30 - KJ missed layup - 15 seconds left on clock
9:30 - Basset dunk blocked - 22 seconds on clock
8:45 - TO 23 seconds left on clock
8:20 - KJ made runner - 11 seconds left on clock
7:50 - KJ missed 3 - 20 seconds left on clock
7:30 - KJ missed layup - 17 seconds on clock
7:10 - KJ missed layup - 23 seconds on clock
7:00 - TO by Hudson in backcourt - 26 seconds on clock
6:34 - Bassett dunk blocked - 15 seconds on clock
6:01 - Allen off. foul on drive - 9 seconds on clock (KJ had driven with with 15 seconds but was cut off)
5:35 - TO by Nembhard - 20 seconds on clock
4:57 - Nembhard fouled - 19 seconds on clock, missed 1 and 1
4:17 - Hayes fouled - 13 seconds on clock
3:44 - Hayes fouled on layup - 19 seconds on clock
3:36 - Hayes missed alleyoop - 25 seconds on clock
3:04 - Hudson missed 3 - 6 seconds on clock
2:33 - Hayes fouled on lay up - 23 seconds on clock

17 total possessions minus 3 TO's with 20+ seconds on clock = 14 possessions we ran offense
Of those 14 possessions, only two went under 10 seconds on the shot clock!
4 were from 11-15 seconds.
8 possessions where we shot or were fouled with over half the shot clock left, and 7 of 8 with 19 or more seconds on the shot clock!
We only got 10 shots up because we had 3 TO's and were fouled 4 times. We ran offense, we just didn't make shots.
But hey, don't let facts get in the way of the Mike White "prevent offense" narrative.

I didn't realize Mrs. White was a member of this board. Good to have you, ma'am!

What truth? Mike White is some kind of all star?

Never said that, but along with Cal, White is the only coach in the SEC to make the tourney each of the last three years. Regarding the topic at hand, the numbers don't lie.

 

[NavetG8r]

I tried to watch for like 5 minutes and saw they were crapping the bed and turned it back off. Apparently it worked. You're all welcome.

He should be fired immediately.

 

[rogdochar]

Saw on social media that Franks shaved the chin fuzz. It’s confirmed, he reads this board.

... well so much for Franks' growth process.

 

[rogdochar]

Of course, White Buff, those numbers are mollified by "you go for the basket when the opportunity seems to open up", regardless what the clock says.

The fouls prevented White from running more clock and the possessions from 13-10 min were the biggest issue. The running clock and bad shots caused the momentum to shift and resulted in the lead disappearing...at the 7 ish min mark the team started panicking because an 18 pt lead had almost gone away. Ending with some quick shots and getting to the line thankfully due to dumb fouls by Nevada. Mike White played into the strategy and made the situation perfect for a comeback. Reggie Miller was screaming at the 13-10 min mark that it was dumb for us to dribble the ball out and waste clock. A Hall of Famer saw what was happening. Fans saw what was happening...the coach did not. That is a problem

If you didn't watch a moment of the game (and I'm confident you didn't), you can't have an opinion on this.

You are of course correct that I didn't watch a second of that but I can certainly still have an opinion that Terrific 32 sounds ridiculous. Hell sweet 16 sounds stupid.

Elite eight is probably elite.

I changed it to "Terrific 32" specifically to sound stupid and to trigger people like you. It worked.

I was wondering who came up with such an awful title that I figured Ox was sure to change it and threaten to ban the mod that changed it. This explains a lot.

Im so triggered, I may never again be untriggered.
