Thad Matta called them the best 7 win team he had ever seen - maybe an overstatement but they always do mention how well they are coached.<BR/><BR/>It looks like a brutal nonconference schedule along with the tougher part of the conference schedule happening early made this team seem worse than maybe they were and also has prepared us for a good stretch run - look at the last 5 games they play. With the exception of the season finale against Purdue, they play at Minnesota, Illinois, NW and at Penn St. Those are all potential wins as they are the 4 other teams joining us at the bottom of the standings. Now I don't think we'll win all 4 (that would be a 7 game winning streak if it happened) but at least a split and maybe 3-2 in the final five games would give us a 7-11 conference record after starting 1-9. Sims and Harris look like the real deal and the NIT (i.e., a winning record) is a good goal for next year. <BR/><BR/>Go Blue!Taxmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09258303108102219306noreply@blogger.com
