Re: 2/19 | George Washington | 6:00PM (ESPN+)
Still getting Ts and bring the ball up after rebounds in the 25th game shows a lack of coaching. A stupid T should be an automatic seat on the bench. Not kicking it out to guard to push it up the floor should be another seat on the bench. It’s called coaching which does not seem apparent here

Re: 2/19 | George Washington | 6:00PM (ESPN+)
I used to believe these players had talent and just needed to correct its ft shooting and turnovers . I was just wrong . This team is very lacking in talent .
They can't pass and they can't shoot . They can play defense when it strikes their fancy but otherwise don't expect a strong effort unless it is against
a very good team . they are not embarrassed to lose to bad teams . It looks like they just don't care . They don't believe in themselves and maybe they are right. I don't plan to watch anymore . They aren't worth the aggravation anymore . I'm going to watch my Alma Mater , Dayton because at
least they are giving a full effort every game . I'm done with this team after today's embarrassing loss . They are pathetic .

Re: 2/19 | George Washington | 6:00PM (ESPN+)
No question there is baggage with the Mitchell,s, BUT, as long as we are playing without a coach, it is hard to put all the blame on them.
Yes, they often play like high school players, they do not look any different when they first came here.
Maybe, they are uncoachable, but, I don’t think so. If they were playing for the Bob Huggins or DH or ………. They would be excellent ball players!
With every passing day of inaction by Thorr, the program sinks further into the abyss.

He should be starting over him. He works his ass off for this team. Unlike the Twins, he's unselfish. He'll come off the bench. He'll take a lesser role even though he's been our best player in many games this year. At this point, I would be fed up if I was him. The kid has a stretch of games where he played close to perfect basketball, but he gets buried on the bench behind two kids who only care about themselves.

They are not embarrassed by losing to bad teams or anything really
They don't believe in themselves
Hmmm, That's why you can't put faith in a bunch of 18-20 year olds to form a good team. Thankfully The coach has not to do with any of these issues

I didn’t watch a minute. Just saw the score and laughed. What did I miss-the twins get another technical, turnovers, inconsistent play? Impossible team to root for so I don’t. Tear the whole thing down and build it back up

Our poorly coached team can not keep up with the competition as other teams become more cohesive units throughout the season. Our feckless coach lets the same mediocre players get technical fouls game after game and builds his strategy around them? A sad state of affairs and this program will get no more of my dollars as long as Thorr accepts this level of performance.

Looked like I made the right decision avoiding this game and instead attending the exciting, highly competitive Penn-Brown game. I checked the score at halftime, saw the 14 point deficit, turned to my friend and said “URI sucks” and didn’t check the score again.

Very fortunate to have missed this game for good reason. Was down in Chatham celebrating the 70th anniversary of the greatest small boat rescue in Coast Guard history. Governor Baker declared Friday as the 70th anniversary of the Pendleton rescue day. Nice celebration at the pier featuring a Coast Guard helicopter hovering over for 90 seconds (2 seconds for each survivor and people that perished). All names were read with a 2 bell salute after each name. Also, a wreath of flowers placed on the original CG36500, that has been restored and can be seen at Rock harbor in the summer. I am proud of my dad, Andy Fitzgerald, who was the last surviving rescuer on this mission. If you have ever seen the movie the Finest Hours or are interested in seeing it, dad is the engine man and search light operator on the 36 foot motor boat that rescued 32 crewmen from the Pendleton in the middle of a noreaster 70 years ago. I'm proud of you dad. Even though I am extremely unhappy with the direction of this team I will support them and hope Thorr makes the right decision to rescue this program.

Most concerning is the late season melt downs the last 3 years.
19-20: Losing 4 of the last 7 games, and only a last second 1-point win at Fordham (I was there), also a 1-point win over UMass.
20-21: Losing the last 7 of 8 games, including the first round A10T game against Dayton.
21-22: Currently losing 8 out of our last 9 games, probably another loss at Olean on Tuesday.

Did anyone notice Bozeman last night after the technical? While DC Was talking to the ref, Boze got off the bench and started clapping loudly while talking to the players while they were at the free throw line. This continued in the next time out. He was still clapping and talking passionately to the players while DC was looking at a clipboard.
I hope Thorr saw that and gave it some thought. Cut the cord and. See what Boze can do over the next two weeks.

I don't care what Bozeman can do these next two weeks, outside of leading this team to an A10 tournament championship as an interim head coach he shouldn't be the next head coach of the Rams. That said, even though it won't happen, I would like to see him finish out the season. Cox is toast and it's best to rip off the band-aid.

Is there a reason that Bassy only played 5 minutes and was benched the entire 2nd half? Maybe it was that technical foul. Oh wait, that was Makhi. Maybe it was his 5 turnovers. Oh wait, that was Makhi too.

Not 100% sure obviously, but I noticed him on the table at the half
