The shots have to start falling at some point. Unless you're Larry Wright...

Don't get down on your guys. I saw a lot of talent and potential from you . You are probably not going to see a team as physical and athletic as UW during the conference run. I was impressed by Benson. He needs to get smarter on his decisions..especially shot blocking . That leads to poor rebounding position as well as fouls he doesn't need. Will is tough and aggressive .... and your guards are quick and sturdy. I see good things ahead if they can iron out some of the wrinkles.
Go Grizzles .... have a great season !! It was fun having Will back in Madison.... he and my son, Keaton, have been banging heads for a long time. Will looks like a solid player to me. And a great kid !

You know, I hate posts like this one. "Hey, you guys played really tough, but we're really good and much better than anyone in your conference. Here are some things that I think you could do better like we do! Good luck!!" F that. Wisconsin U is probably the 7th best team we'll face this year. We lost because we can't shoot to save our lives. Sure WU's defense had something to do with that, but it's hard to win a game when you're running back on defense after a miss every time.

Regards to Xlee - Wow, ;D To whitethunder - Thanks for the kudos. I'm sure it was genuine and I appreciate it but Xlee is correct to the point that we have heard these speeches before and more often than not it doesn't take the sting off of the loss. Our team will improve as well as UW as I have watched more than enough basketball to know that you never count out a Bo Ryan coached team. I'm sure Mr. Izzo would attest to that.

Not a speech at all... you have alot of great puzzle pieces for the coaches to work with. I don't know much about your coaches.... but I do know a lot about basketball. I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night. If the coach is worth his salt.... you are in for a great season. As for Xlee...... two things. 1 I'd lbe interested in your thoughts as to who the other better 7 are 2 If you look up at the top of the chrome stand with that plastic bag of liquid on it..... you will see a tube coming out of the bottom of the bag. at the top of the tube is a small valve... turn it clockwise .

I'm not mad at you thunder, you just can't help it. You're a BCS-school fan. You receive untold riches and other advantages for just being a member of the Big Eleven. You get 17,000 fans at your home games. You play ONE out-of-conference road game (and that one is in your state and you will probably have more fans rooting for you than GB).
ONE.
ROAD.
GAME.
I'm not looking for "moral victories" or "hey, great job!"s. Would you ever say that on a Minnesota message board after a game?? "Great game guys! You played really hard! But we were just better and more physical! Chin up! You'll be ok!"
So please check your smugness at the door ("Smugness? Huh? I was just trying to be nice!").
It's frustrating to me to see OU lay two eggs to start the season. I did not expect us to beat WU, but I had hoped we would have put forth a better effort.
