i can't figure this hoop team out...

Like it or not, we play better when he’s on the floor. We fell apart when they subbed him out early in the game. Just the way I see it.

Not that it was Sam’s fault, but he was still on the floor during Oregon’s run at the end of the first half. It came after Worster got his second foul and Ulis became a turnover machine.

Not a great look for Ulis given his past at Iowa lol.

If Ulis could play, he could be on the phone with his bookie during timeouts for all I care. But he’s just not much of a player.

Ok I stand corrected. Good catch.

At the risk of showing unwarranted optimism - the next 3 road games are certainly “winnable”, understanding road wins in the B1G are a premium. The Home schedule has some land mines waiting, but 10-10 is back within reach.

He isn't a true point guard but he hustles like crazy on defense, has a high basketball IQ, doesn't usually turn it over, makes an occasional three, gets some steals and rebounds, makes free throws and tends to see his other four teammates on the floor with him. And who else do we have on the bench that can do those things.
