the buzzer beater.. sure you can second guess dbl'ing that guy

but let's face it.. he hit a running half court shot at the buzzer. I'd like to see us not allow the guy to catch the ball on the run like that, but he's also not wanting to commit a foul.. 9 times outta 10 you're gonna take your chances with a half court prayer. the turnover under the basket, the turned into a quick 2 pts for SMU with essentially no time off the clock. followed up by a cpl missed 1 & 1 chances was the difference. CMY cant shoot the FTs.. we gotta make those.

I'm not sure a coach can do anything about a made halfcourt shot.

You either put Lawal or a 7 footer on the inbounds

Damn dude, have some grace. Where is he "ignorant"?
WildTurkE 01/15/26 10:26 AM ET
I said the post was ignorant. Saying CMY "failed BBall 101" because he did

So, you double him and leave the inbound passer unobstructed or worse yet

We've honestly blown 3 of the last 4 games and tried to blow the UVA game.

And easily could have blown the Cal game. I mean Cal had a clean and

Yes, line is so thin outside top 3 seeds, these games are the difference...
