strictly for the optics...period

or Dean Smith

you do realize he's dead, right?

meh...it'd be good for the gate, but for wins/losses? not so much

This is one way to sell tickets, and that's about all.

but I don’t see anyone else on the team who wants to step up and be the guy.

I alluded to this on another thread--we don't have a floor leader, or a leader of any sort to be honest...you'd think it'd be a 6th year guy, but he seems to want no part of it

Levis's "day in the sun" when he played vs. the Buckeyes in the 2019 game when Clifford was hurt/ineffective, made him marketable

clearly a case of unfamiliarity, but I get your point

He’s (Holtmann) going to have a lot returning and a lot coming in next year, so he’s definitely well positioned.

admire your optimism, but seems like we've seen this movie before...wash...rinse...repeat

My expectations for 2023 is the lowest in 20 seasons

What changed? Winning?

it'll cure what ails ya'

The productivity is not there to continue giving him almost 30 minutes a game. He turns the ball over casually with no pressure on him. Doesn't hit the glass, doesn't get to the free throw line, misses shots around the basket. More of his minutes should be going to Gayle, Holden, Etzler and/or Eugene Brown, or really anybody else on the bench. Sueing needs to sit.

..and yet Holtmann sits Sensabaugh to "shake things up"...it's mind boggling

And ever and ever and EVER

your obsession with BucksHave7 is not only creepy, but unhealthy--you really should seek professional help

agree with Jwilly, this will be one of the more anticipated SG's in a while--hoping for 60+ degrees and sunny skies!

The Big Ten is trash and its teams have consistently under-performed in the tournament for years

Truer words were never spoken--IIRC, the B1G conference hasn't won a title since Sparty in 2000, right? 'nuff said

Guess you didn't see the last three games?

lol--obviously you didn't 

FIRE "Big Play" Knowles!

in the confidence and inspired play

This is the biggest difference between these two programs--they both have the talent, but they both don't have these intangibles.

Prudent strategy, but she will need a game or two to knock the rust off...but when she does, look out
 

I would like to see Sawyer make a jump next year as well. 

someone mentioned this on another thread, but I'd also like to see Sawyer back at his DE position and maybe try someone else out at the 'Jack' position...CJ Hicks, maybe?

Sueing has been around too long

IMO, Justice Sueing is a detriment to this team--instead of Sensabaugh, have him come off the bench...just a thought.

Funny how there’s a BasketBucks game tonight and it’s not even mentioned…

until they get their heads out of their arses and start playing with a purpose, they don't deserve a mention

No--that was Austin Mack

the 'feel good' story of 2022, hands down...he's already a success, and this will continue throughout...God speed, young man

meh---I'm definitely not "too young to remember", but that was then...now our focus is less on beating ttun (even though it's certainly one of our priorities), and more on getting to the CFP and winning a Natty--which we now know is possible even with a loss to the skunkbears.

..and fwiw, I didn't dv you, since you do make some salient points
