I’m not that far and literally I’ve seen nothing different in Butker players till about 10 minute mark players are up after rare bade baskets with players come out they have been going down the bench slapping hands. If they start not listening to him in the huddle then I’ll worry

Aren't you a season ticket holder?

What did Wilcher just do?

We were 11.5 point favorites and were up by 10 before his dunk attempt. Make it, and we cover the spread. Of course, I’d like to think it had nothing to do with that….

For LMF and the rest of the anti Luis group. Here’s his stats today…….20 points, on 9-19 (47%) shooting, 11 rebounds, 2 for 2 from the line and 4 steals.

If any other player had these stats you would be celebrating. Clearly, without RJ, this team wouldn’t have won half its games.

Does he make some mistakes sure….. but numbers don’t lie!

Honestly he only made 1 glaring bad play taking the 3 opposite our bench when no one was down

 

[mjmaherjr]

Yeah. The only time I even saw something on the bench that someone might have taken wrongly as RJ walking away during the time out but he was walking to Mas because Mas was showing something on the board

 

[cbruno]

Glover has to get more minutes!

Absolutely
He may make mistakes but he is a tough player and looks
Like he can shoot well

 

[guinness77]

Fair question..not my place to say but shouldn't be anything too serious ..sure coach or someone will address it

 

[bamafan]

Shot 50% from 2 point range 73% from free throw line and a stellar 4% from 3.

Then hit the road

What's your problem? I've followed this team before I even enrolled there. Sore loser? Grow up.

 

[tom in salem]

Should of had that double digit win, if not for the bs layup at the end that they just let him get.
Isn't winning by double digits a big thing in NCAA Bball?

Yes it is. We didn't even cover.

 

[tom in salem]

I’m not agreeing with the gloom and doom crowd but this is a serious question: why is no one allowed to, and worse, ridiculed, for pointing out the obvious when the team is playing horrible?

Ive been away for a long time but there are some bad losers in here. Over the past 25 years, I figured everyone was used to it.

This post didn’t age well

You should read his Dunlap manifesto.

 

[Redmen88]

What a bush league move! This kid has some growing up to do. Besides embarrassing St. John's, he's giving the finger to the Butler team. Unbelievable.

It wasn’t the best move but Butler did not even try to run back on D for 9 seconds. He should have just dunked at the buzzer if they never came back on D.

You’ve been away a long time so let me remind you trolling is against the rules. Let’s take it to IM if you have any further questions.

If our games are “meaningless” I don’t see the point in coming here everyday that’s all but hey someone’s gotta post incorrect statistics I guess

''incorrect statistics''? Didn't know I had. Hope it was for the better.

Final warning Tom.

Final warning Tom.

I’ll take the blame on this one. All good, I’m done with it

 

[Moose]

Has it always been this bad? I ask because only in recent years have I had to start using the "Ignore" feature on certain members here. And I'm not one to want to use that.

I've only used the Ignore button for 1 poster. (Bet that poster feels honored).
But it still shows them posting just hides the content. Wish it just didn't show them at all but alas.

I think its always been a bit of a cesspool. But when we were bad there was a certain tone. Now that we arent bad its a much different vibe.

 

[mjmaherjr]

That second half was getting flat out hot btw. Suit going to dry cleaners

I'm fully in the "do not show up your opponent" camp, but that said I did not have an issue with the Wilcher dunk attempt. To me it was an obvious attempt to hype up the crowd and put an exclamation point on a win on Carnesecca day. Not a jab at the opponent. And this is from someone who typically wants the players to just run the clock out. But that's just my view.
