Gholston scored 26 on 22 shots. Last game it was 15 on 18 shots. Good player but we have to have a real offense that flows and with constant movement.

This color commentator cracks me up. Every 50/50 call should go to WSU according to him. He has always been painful to listen to. I'm still trying to figure out why a ref should not call travelling on a player in close proximity to him. Huh! I wouldn't mind having a color analyst like him though, even if he was as much of a homer. On the other end of the spectrum, Chris Collins is an excellent play by play guy.

So, we are not doing the handshake line again because of covid. Yet, WSU players after the game will still keep their tradition of going around the court and slap hands with their fans. Lol. Wow! I think I saw Aaron Rodgers hugging Erin Andrews in the stands after a Holden three.

Apparently, PBS found it more important to make sure Dre and JSP did not foul out than it was to win the game. While they were on the bench, we had to watch Lathon clank bad pancake threes and VBJ....well I'm not sure what he was doing.

I mean, this is one of the biggest "smaller" problems with the program right now.

If/when Baldwin Jr and Samba Kane return things will get better. Why they've been out so much is a mystery that shouldn't be a mystery. Being in the dark wondering from game to game whether your best player is going to play or how sick or hurt they are.. kinda sucks for a sports fan. JS article makes it sound like PBJ was still out due to COVID-19 protocols. If he didn't travel with the team will he fly solo to Kentucky and play Saturday? Will Kane be there Saturday or at least part of the next stop on the road trip? Is Browning "close" to returning? I know it sounds like I'm whining but these are basic questions that could be easily answered. Could you imagine if Wisconsin or Marquette just said, "well, not sure about these guys, that's all we can say"? Oh well. Many more seasons ahead. This one is still salvageable but looking less so by the game. It will take our best players being on the floor as much as possible. That shouldn't be a hard call by PB. "UWM next heads to Northern Kentucky for a 1 p.m. New Year's Day matchup, but will again be without Baldwin Jr.
"Physically he's getting so much better," he said of his son, who has not played since Dec. 13. "We're preparing to hopefully have him back next week." -www.jsonline.com/story/sports/college/uwm/2021/12/30/uw-milwaukee-loses-wright-state-after-struggling-second-half/9051880002/Ok, PBJ may return by Green Bay game. No question or answer on Browning or Kane.

"We had some poor possessions offensively that led to some easy shots for them," Baldwin said. "They got out in transition and scored on a couple of them. There was an underneath out-of-bounds play that we weren't ready for, and that's just inexcusable.
"Just, mistakes that we made to let them get back into the game. When (the lead) got to six and we had a timeout I thought our guys would regroup. But we just couldn't sustain what we had going."

Hard to sustain any type of lead when 3 of your more impactful players are on the bench (JSP, Hanc***, Gholston) and you have Lathon and VBJ crapping down their legs.
I've been the biggest PBJ fan on here, but I'd be fine with him pulling a Jalen Johnson. We can send Baldwin and his coaching staff out to pasture with him too.

This whole situation is such a sham. Somebody got hornswoggled pretty badly. In the meantime, why not just cut Kane if he's not going to be used at all? This is his sixth school after all. Again, he was doing reverse monster dunks on a "bad toe."

frankly, i think it is time to let Baldwin Sr go. we're 2-9 for cripes sakes and this is the part of the season in his tenure where we get most of the wins we get each year. at this point, is anyone here expecting us to top 10 wins? ANYONE?

ANYONE? I said "fire him now" after the Alcorn State game and was basically called an idiot by this board. I saw through this snow job from the very beginning, and if the kid isn't going to play anyway, even more reason to get his dad's ass the hell out of here. It's good to see others are finally seeing the light. Better late than never.

Again, he was doing reverse monster dunks on a "bad toe." Kane has obviously been "unofficially" suspended. Why? We'll likely never know. But I'm sure it's out of some sort of pettiness/spite from Pat Baldwin Sr, given his 5 year track record.

Fellas happy New Years to you guys! Just to let you know I’m totally checked out from this clown sh*t but when this is over I will be dropping nuke bombs what’s really been going with this team and going to be raw and uncut!!!!!! It’s a damn shame what’s happening to all these kids. I haven’t watched the last two games the played but for you to accept a win from D3 school is a joke! PBJ is young man and this too much for him to handle but his should’ve been fired . This team has underachieved I was the first to tell y’all the we got wasn’t sh•t and Allen was better than them. I told you we had a ball handling problem can’t break a freakin press I taught JT how to break it in 4th grade but also you won’t listen to your assistant coaches I’ve never saw a coach that can’t accept help you got a this team looking like the worst team in the league the more you try to do it your way and it crashing like a car accident going a 100 miles a hour going down a one way street. This season is a bust a there’s only one person to blame. Very disappointing for me and all you guys that bleed Panther basketball!! What else can we do?

We appear to be on a collision course with 20 or more losses for the third time in the last six years (we had 19 losses in another) and there's nothing any of us can do about reversing our fortunes.

I'm not surprised in the least to hear that Coach Baldwin doesn't even listen to his assistants. The only question left to be answered is: will our AD stay true to her word about what level of performance is expected/required of the MBB head coach for him to keep his job? This is now year 5 of failure for Pat Baldwin Sr, and the final year of his contract. I know I'll never renew my season tickets if she renews his contract. And as a 20+ year season ticket holder (counting my time as a student section leader), I never even considered that thought until this year.
