Seton HeII Post Game Thread

[housekeys]

Ok, we can agree to disagree. Not saying the refs were good, I’m just saying there were a lot of other reasons pointing to this loss.

Absolutely. You can't sugar coat what we saw. UConn played bad. I only wish the team was good enough to overcome poorly officiated games. We clearly are not. But the season is not over.

 

[Husky Alien]

I love the guy but he needs to be humbled. We're seeing someone who is too arrogant and too stubborn right now.

@superjohn, I really think this game he got humbled. Time will tell.

 

[Drfla]

Okay. Then don’t give him a pass. Lol.

I will.

go ahead give him a pass and keep hoping Stewart turns out to be the guy in your head, not the one that we see on the court and that was counted on for a big jump this year

 

[housekeys]

We got over the top great performances from Ball then McNeeley. Without that we lose both games.

Yea so. Seton Hall got over the top performances from Wusu, Coleman. What is your point?

 

[Scrappy3]

I don't post much here but I want to speak up. What's even more digusting than today's loss is how some are turning against and hurling vitriol at our future hall of fame coach who has brought us 2 championships.

I think Hurley earned a long leeway of loyalty from fans. I’m disappointed in some fans today please think before u post. We should’ve won but we lost. It’s ok

 

[YellowMamba]

Dont be shocked if you start to hear Danny must go chants.

I definitely won't be shocked from this low basketball IQ and toxic fanbase that today I am ashamed to call my own

 

[RuffRuff]

Question. Did struggling Seton Hall play like a team good enough to be top 25.

Yes. Uconn is not great this year, but are no hirrible either. Obviously, Seton Hall won this game for a reason.

Was it particular match ups?

Defensive game plan?

Offensive game plan?

Or was Seton Hall just lucky tonight?

Was at the game. Seton Hall came out with fire in the jocks and played great D. Lots of length in their starting unit, especially on the perimeter.

Wonder if watching Hurley all week flash his two rings baldy meme added to the spark? You get what you ask for.

 

[JustbrewitMan]

I think the thing that irks me the most about this game is that we were forced to burn Hass for 29min of game time and the team still couldn’t be inspired enough to help secure a win for him.

eTied the Creighton win post game thread at 14 pages in 1 hr.

Proves losing is worse the than winning is winning

 

[3rdbass]

Only two of the guys on this list are PGs orher than Nowell. And they both transferred bc they suck.

Diarra Sucks? He was 6th man of the year for a reason last year. He is playing on one leg now. Now Mahaney I will give you as he has no business playing high major basketblall.

 

[superjohn]

Well as of now he hasn’t missed the tournament. 17-8 and a top 5 finish in conference isn’t terrible after back to back championships. I’ll take that everytime. To the recruiting angle, Hurley doesn’t really recruit that way. He’s shown to lean heavily on the side of staying loyal to his guys. He did it when he first got here as well. Maybe he should change that approach. We’ll see.

We had massive turnover for a couple years there. Gaffney, Diggins, Brendan Adams, Carlton, Akok, Floyd Jr. And then Richie Springs, Romoglou, Hasson after the first championship.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

In all my years watching the Husky’s this was one of top 5 bad losses of all time.

Not sure how long you've been a fan buy...

Loss to Maryland - opening round 2021 tournament
Loss to NM State - opening round 2022 tournament
Home loss to Creighton in 20-21 season (worse collapse at end of regulation than today)
Loss to St Joe's preseason tourney 2019-2020 season (as mentioned earlier)
At least half a dozen in Hurley's first year, capped by a 40 point beatdown by Houston in the conference tournament, which due to COVID ended up being our last ever AAC tournament appearance.

This is only from the Hurley years.

I don't know who you're talking about but Hurley deserves criticism for his handling of this game, and he's already acknowledged it:

"It feels like, in the end, we got what we deserved," Hurley summarized. "They were tougher, more determined. It took us a while to get control of the game and have a chance to win it in regulation. Should have won it in regulation, should have won it in overtime. But, just did a lot of things that make you look like you're a poorly-coached team to close out that game, multiple times."

He's not a deity, and he'd be the first one to tell you that.

He can take his coaching and this team to another level if the humility sticks and fuels him even further.

 

[Shabazzkets]

At this point, just make the tourney and spare us the ignominy of being in the NIT. I don’t expect anything more from this group. It is what it is. We have earned a down year.

 

[NickDanger]

Calm down.

Hey we might do well in the NIT

 

[UCLJ0211]

Such an embarrassing performance. We don’t deserve to make the tourney. This is not UConn basketball. This is a badly couched team that isn’t very talented.

At least they’re comfortable on the sofa

 

[housekeys]

Stop it. We were playing Seton Hall, check who they lost to. Loser mentality

He is not a loser. No one is. He is also right about the refs. You and your "like" buddies are wrong.

 

[NickDanger]

Disappointed but one to learn from. We’ll be fine

Yes we could win the NIT

 

[That Guy]

I'm just ready for tourney time. Outside of the month stretch from Baylor to Providence, this season has been miserable. The back 2 back rings make it a lot more bearable at least.

 

[housekeys]

Hey we might do well in the NIT

You better believe it.

 

[305Husk]

Badly couched? Even spelling it right is a dumb take.

 

[Glastonhusky]

Yeah, what about all the posters who said this would be a win and a chance to rest Hass. THINK BEFORE YOU POST.

 

[alphasigko]

Watching that game was almost as bad as having a bad gout attack. It has to be the worst coached and worst loss of the Hurley era.

This team is going nowhere fast.

 

[Brad Palmer]

You take yourrrr timeeeeeee because with more than one minute left the clock CONTINUES TO RUN.

It’s the smartest move you can possibly make. Yes, you have to inbound the ball successfully, but that is an insanely high BBIQ decision Alex always makes.

But if you're struggling mightily to even get the ball inbounds, wouldn't inbounding the ball quickly even be more of a high BBIQ decision?
