What a great team effort. Buddy came up big in the second half. Joe was great in the first half. Marek played a long while without fouling out. Kadary and Bras both hit crucial shots. Quincy was a man on the boards. Another complete effort. Really proud of these guys!!!

Buddy got hot late, and we survived some pretty iffy performances otherwise! Survive and advance!!!!!

Yeah no complaints except for the shaky inbounding at the end. Maybe they were tired? Nobody was running to the ball and they kept passing it in to a guy in the corner! Raftery said that too.
Fun, high level game. Ball mvmt was terrific and the cutting. Marek’s passes and the hockey assists as well were great. Very good offensive strategy. Team is definitely playing loose and confident. Houston will be a challenge as I think they defend harder than WVU/SDSU (battle tested though) and they are ferocious rebounders even though not a huge team. Let‘s go!!

I was glad to see Joe play better too. Like you, I was shocked he missed the free throw at the end. Fortunately it didn’t cost us.

It takes the pressure off Buddy. Great overall team effort. Really proud of the way these guys have grown and evolved into a very good team that I believe is fully capable of making the a Final Four with the teams left in our bracket. Loyola Chicago is the team that most concerns me. I’ll take our chances.

Someone mentioned he looks like a pro - I guess we need to worry about him leaving early now!!

We also haven't seen that backdown much lately. That was definitely not my favorite shot!
