Maybe we should have another team meeting and discuss the importance of actually making layups and free throws and the importance of our senior guard handling the ball with 15 seconds left to play in the game and being able to throw a ball in without being tipped and we never get a shot. Or the importance of not shooting a airball from 10ft out when down two. Or the importance of a 7 foot 1 Senior that gets rebounds because he is 2 inches taller then everyone else but never gets a put back score because he loses the ball out of bounds or is stripped by a 5 foot 10 guard. Or the importance of not letting teams shoot wide open 3's since 1987. Or the importance of the 2 guys that handle the ball most of the time being able to shoot higher then a grade school level.
player only meeting

It's impossible not to be cynical about this team. I knew they would lose yesterday because of the interviews earlier in the week when they talked about having something to prove, remembering the last two BTT early exits, etc. Similar to the players only meeting that had 0 impact. Fran's biggest failure IMO has been to not instill a poor man's version of MSU or WI culture at Iowa. Our motto would be something like 'Expect to win until we lose, then be OK with losing'.
It would be going well until Gesell gets up to speak at the end and vomits all over everyone in the room.
Then, go on to have a more successful life than most of us here.
I get the frustration. I get it. Coming here the next day to continue what transpired yesterday shows a lack of moving forward. Yes, it still stings, but I'm not going to let it consume me.
Take a break for a while.

Harsh, but I think true. You forgot to say that MG would fall down as he threw up followed by 3 more guys falling down after they slipped on his puke!!!
Then, MG would grab a bucket to clean up and drop the effing bucket!!!!!!!!
Good for you. The rest of us still have a hard time understanding how a senior laden team could tank like this without any noticeable injuries.
Mentally and physically weak.
