Hold on:
Did Notre Dame retire Harangody’s number? This actually happened?

Wasn't he named to the All-American team?

Christ on crutches.
How many pivot feet does Cooley get? He travelled three times there.

Can't believe I haven't said this yet:
I’m really going to miss DJO next year.

What's up w DJO?
I know the guy can be tenacious, but I couldn’t help but notice his cavalier approach to defense during this game. Standing! Reaching!. Had to watch the recording and focus on him to be sure of what I thought I was seeing. This is not MU ball. Very disappointed. Then, Buzz is raving about ND’s sharpshooters…a hand in the face tends to dim the target.
Imagine if Vander made half of his drives.
How many more points would he have?

See you in Chicago, Derrick.
Yikes.

djo
I’m gonna miss him too but not those foolish dribbling turnovers and out of control play

NOW you take a timeout?
What a fucking moron.

Have to get Jae back in immediately.

He needed to get Jae back in
when they tied the game, and it was clear Juan had no idea what he was doing.
As usual: Buzz waited for ND to score 5 more points first.

It's a balance
You take Jae out to give him a chance for a breather, so you have to actually try to give him the breather.

We've gotten all we could hope for out of Jamail.
But he’s used up now. Jamil for the rest of the game, please.

Gonna have to get at least 3 more minutes out of him.

I'm pretty sure he's done.

Hey!
Vander didn’t have his stupid leg kick on that step in jumper! Motion looked good.

Unless they run the exact same OOB play for him.

we couldn't buy a bucket that half

Yeah, that was a foul, Greg.
Doesn’t matter how much of the ball you get when you rake the guy across the forearm to get to the ball.

Well...
Did anyone actually expect a Marquette lead at the half?
by Superstitious Bando on Feb 4, 2012 12:53 PM CST reply actions
no, but we are in decent shape considering
We are getting good looks, but they aren’t going down. Tough luck under the bucket. We need to go after cooley in the 2nd. He was cleaning up inside. Stupid irish dancers at halftime. Bouncing boobies tho…

And this is the kind of reporting you won't get from CBS.
They did call Marquette the Warriors going into the half.
by Superstitious Bando on Feb 4, 2012 1:00 PM CST up reply actions
who's on the call on cbs?

Defense is where it has been
from a per possesion standpoint. 0.95 points per.
Offense down at 0.78. Have to get better.

I think ND has a mandatory team haircut
They all look like Harangody clones out there.
Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.

They bronzed the bowl that Harangody used.

Yep.
I just they need to take him out and put Vander back in.

Remember when he had to discuss which nickname was right for him?
Good times.

Sure...
They just get done talking about mental toughness and then 2 dumb plays in a row.
by Superstitious Bando on Feb 4, 2012 1:35 PM CST reply actions
come on jae!
Give it to the pg and make the easy pass. Inexcuseable!
by Soft Pretzel with Cheese on Feb 4, 2012 1:35 PM CST via mobile reply actions
And then Vander doesn't find him on the break.
And tries a twisting reverse layup that had no chance.

I guess Buzz's answer to Rubie is call all your timeouts at once.
by Superstitious Bando on Feb 4, 2012 1:38 PM CST reply actions
He's a profound idiot, that Buzz.

Buzzer
Peter principle has finally caught up to the Lonestar boy. Great assistant and recruiter for the MU tradition, but head coach? Crean, thanks again for giving the appearance that this proud program is a stepping stone. JEEEzzzus, maybe Jabari Parker can bring us back.
Well, that'll do it.
Don’t let this turn into a skid on Monday.

Al's take on ND
“An ND grad will pick his nose just to show off his class ring.” Or something close to that…thanks ,Al

What a pathetic effort. If they don’t wanna hustle, put in Jamail and Juan and Derrick.

My local CBS affiliate has given up on a comeback
They’ve swiched over to the Vandy-Florida game. Suck.

I agree with kevin harland and rubie
Sometimes its just not your day…notre dame could do no wrong in the 2nd half
And don’t let this turn into a losing streak with another loss on monday vs depaul
by Soft Pretzel with Cheese on Feb 4, 2012 1:52 PM CST via mobile reply actions

i just wish it wasn’t the hated irish.
