I want to give this a
Death Reaction GIF
 
Hurley's favorite sentence construction in post-loss interviews- "I just don't understand how we <FILL IN THE BLANK HERE>"
 
.-.
It was fine, they were all pissed. The two plays he called out where the runner prayer by Allen that ended up a foul on AJ and Adama close out foul were two huge plays that cost them in 2nd half. Blamed first half overall.

Only thing I didn’t like was explaining how good NMSU was and how they were scared to death of their players/3 point shooting. Idk in what world being afraid of another team is gonna win you a game
 
I can't unhear "scared to death" being uttered multiple times. Certainly played like it the first 25 minutes.

As a coach, why would you make the opponent seem bigger than they are? We are a team that lacks a true Alpha. Seems like a strange approach.
 
Cole and Martin couldn’t have looked any more miserable. Why does the media have to put them through these interviews after a crushing loss and the possible end to their college careers?

The question is: why would Hurley continue to set them up to fail?

Didn't they shoot 33% from three for the season?

This isn't pick up ball for fun, it's the big time. If you don't want to be interviewed after good times and bad, then don't play. These kids know that though, as they have the ability to compete at a high profile level and understand what comes with it.

Why would Sanogo foul a guy shooting a prayer 35 feet from the basket? Killer.
He just needs a little more maturity to his game. A little more patience on his shot, a little more awareness of the double team, etc. If he can get there, he can have a great season next year.

You would think we were the 12 seed if you listened to Hurley's comments before and after this game, it's depressing.
 
I don't wanna watch the excuses...anyone want to sum it up beyond him saying they didn't play good enough defense?
Three main themes:
  • Allen was undefendable. He hoisted rainbows while being challenged and they dropped.
  • Key mistakes in 2nd half when they had momentum, the fouls on Allen as time was expiring mentioned as especially bad.
  • Created a huge hole for themselves in 1st half getting down by 10 and 14.
 
If you are not going to be scared of the 76th ranked offense in KenPom you just are not doing your job
Scared is a loser mentality. Being mindful/aware/prepared is different than being scared.
