    Ado freaking came to play tonight. If he gives us anything offensively, we're tough to beat. Everyone came to play tonight. Good win. Got to keep it rolling though

You look negative I look positive but it?s a lot better in a win
    good for you to admit you were wrong. Holman played 3 minutes in the 2nd half. Don't have to try to be optimistic. Just call it like you see it.

    absolutely. I think we can finish the regular season on a 6-2 run.

    I think Howland is beginning to rub off on this team. Just a little.

    I hope he figures it out because if he flows with this team and gets his offense goin it’s a major plus. We have an opportunity to go 5-2 if we play like tonight with a hiccup. But if we make the dance and get seeded right we are capable of some big things! Love the passion of all of y’all even if I don’t agree at that moment

    Would be interesting if UK gets the double home loss combo like we did last week since they play UT at home Saturday. Our home stretch last week and Kentucky’s this week are brutal and both could go 0-2. Who the hell makes these schedules?

    Ado was the hidden gem tonight.

    UK will be extra motivated and UT is due a loss... which would be good for them actually.

    Lol, we are all Bulldog fans and we all want to win. I’m just glad we got under control and finished and more importantly Howland had our best five out there to finish the game. If Holman can give us 15 effort full minutes we will be a great team and hard to beat in the SEC and NCAA tournament.

    Again I argue sometimes to calm the negative but I realize I’m probably irritating at certain times because of that. We all want the same thing. We just show up at the end of a 2 way driveway in different directions. But damn it’s nice to show up at the end of a winning driveway.
    Seriously these next 4-5 games are critical to us being basketball relevant. We make the tournament on a high note and play with that intensity we are a tough out. The thing we are all most frustrated about is the effort but then we argue about parts of a game that shows in a stat line. If we get in peoples shit, play with heart we won’t lose missing a few free throws. We have lost by complacency and to be honest it has been on all levels of the court. If Howland can get this effort from here on out I’m feeling optimistic

    Play like we did tonight and we will be on a five game win streak going to Auburn and we aren’t worried about the bubble.

    Look Duke came down by 23 in the 2nd and won. We battled through a couple runs tonight and held serve. One thing i realized is we may not be good enough for a Final Four but if this team invests in each other we are capable of a Sweet 16 run. I hope Howland is preaching this tonight. We are a sleeper but if we have lapse we don’t deserve the tournament. This team MUST play hard. If they don’t heartbreak is coming. We will see.

    I agree. Thing is we have to play every game with this effort. We are talented. We haven’t hurt ourselves this year by metrics this year but we did because we have no room for error. We are still in the tournament but that’s because metrics expect us to win the next 4. The losses earlier gave us very limited room for error so no matter what Howland has to keep this fire lit. We will know in the next 2 weeks what this team wants. I expect a team ready to go on a roll. Hope that play and want that

    Typing on a phone. Didn’t see the typos. Bottom line it’s time to grow balls and win some damn games. No room for error

    Great win. Robert Woodard is so so good. You forget that he's a freshman. The way he was backing the ball out to run clock at the end when we had numbers...that's veteran stuff. Q and Lamar would've shot, but Woodard backs it out...I love that. Smart basketball.

    Hats off to Lamar Peters, I give him hell for being Gary Ervin at times, and he still needs to learn to finish these layups, but he was much more productive tonight and I thought he made good decisions even if they didn't drop.

    Q is so silky smooth. I truly think he could score 40+ like the announcer said if he wanted to. But I like the way he didn't force bad shots tonight. He has become a force. He reminds me of Tim Bowers a little, how he can always find a way to the basket when he needs to.

    Perry worked on those free throws all week and it showed. Keep it up, kid...you're NBA bound.

    Nick is our motor. Love the effort and passion he is bringing every night.

    Ado played really well. I forget he is a Sophomore.

    Not sure what happened to Holman, but I'm glad Howland is finally cutting those minutes. We are so much better on D when he's on the bench. Hate it for him, but only he can change it.

    Really good win! Two big road games coming up. Really need to win both. Keep playing like tonight and we will. Hail State

    I think quite a lot of people forget that as well. I think he will continue to get better and will be really good by the time he is a senior. Might not be a good offensive player but could be a beast on defense and rebounding.
