The entire arena was yelling at the refs. I’ve never seen so many T’s called in a game that showed literally no signs of getting out of control. You’d think the teams were close to brawling by looking at the boxscore. Tyler had no reason to be tossed. Last time? Maybe. This time? Absolutely not. Be proud of this one. Those refs deserved to know they stink. This I agree with. Yes the refs absolutely stank near the end today with all the sensitivity and self ego stroking. At the same time, we still kicked ass and should be excited for the upcoming games on the schedule. Let’s go beat YSU on Thursday and put this one behind us.

With YSU losing to PFW today, we control our own destiny for a too 4 finish. Honestly, looking at GBs schedule and the fact they have to play us at home the last game of the season, the top 2 prediction is still very much in play. Exciting time to be a Panther fan.

If a top 1 or 2 position is at stake for the GB game, that's going to be a fun time. Great chance to bring a large crowd.

I was hard on Fields earlier this season. I must say he is becoming one of our most important players. Playing his ass off. Seems to be more comfortable and just playing rather than overthinking it. Props to him.
We need to get 2 of 3 this road trip and I think it's possible. Gotta stay in the top 4 and host the quarterfinals. That's the path to Indy.
The injuries have been bad but it has also allowed guys like Learic to step up and get needed experience. Great to see what he has brought the last few games. We are trending better than fine as Coach said earlier this season.

Even though he got called for a foul on an attempted chasedown block, I still applauded his effort. Faizon's finally found his niche, not just cleaning up on the offensive glass but also being that inside pass option for BJ or Pratt when they get double-teamed.

Honestly, for us, this was an excellent defensive effort today. Everyone stayed on their guys except for a few back-door dunks. Took a while for our offense to get going, but our defense made sure we kept the lead until we got going scoring in the 2nd half. Thought we had mostly good looks on shots, except Elijah was too eager to try to score on guys 1-2 ft taller than him, and that just doesn't work.
Besides Faizon, nobody else seemed to have a standout game, but this was one of their better team efforts for this season, I thought.

Not sure if you can say you only held your nose at the ref when you got out of your seat walked to the scorers table, got in the refs face, THEN continued to point and meltdown at the ref after that. Ref legit laughed at that childish behavior before running Ty again. Embarrassing behavior. Was it a weak tech sure. That and the one on IUPUI's coach were weak the others were all legit. Jimmy and I saw this coming and had a clear view. Standing behind the visitor bench could be a sign of intimidating or a threatening matter. The ejection was not a surprise.

I saw the same thing, also followed the ref down out of his seat to the score table. I said this last year, if you get tossed from a college basketball game as a fan you need to understand that you are the issue not the refs. We blame the refs so much on this board its comical. You guys know these refs all talk right? Boo all you want yell a thing or two if you must but lets be real its not doing anything but getting us less calls.

They injected Tyler?! It was like "One Flew Over The Cookoo's Nest" at the Klotsche Center today!

I fear that we have become a marked team and fan base.

Buying a ticket doesnt give you the right to show up and try to intimidate the refs. They werent even that bad today.

It is what it is but it certainly doesn't give us the benefit of the doubt.
