Right now, it feels like our best chance to get a home game in the HL tournament is a Wright State loss. So go PFW tomorrow! IPFW is definitely beatable at home...just sucks the game is at the K. Normally I agree. If they play like they played tonight, PFW wins by double digits. |

Bart is finding out D1 basketball is tough This isn't exactly his first rodeo but hopefully things will be better next year after he has had more time to recruit and such. |

Just saying, it's still road basketball. Also, we are 12-3 at home this year. Not saying we will win, just trying to have a little positivity. I am not giving up yet even though these last 2 games have killed most of the excitement I had and of course after I tell a bunch of people to watch games too. |

Yeah, it’s hard to be excited right now. Come Thursday night, I’m sure we will have some hope back. |

Makes you feel like an idiot when you tell everyone you know how special the team is and then they come out and do this. Don’t get me wrong I personally love this team and I wouldn’t want anyone else representing us, but it is so hard to get other people to believe when you s*** the bed like this.

Wow, some getting high on wins and really down on loses. Maybe, we need to have a midnight rule on here as well. Lol.

Things were so high weeks ago, Panthers were going to win the regular season and tournament title, which would result someone else offering Lundy a higher paying job.
Still have hopes for winning in Indy..

I agree this is not Barts first rodeo but i disagree about the teams makeup He let go a bunch of guys from last year and did recruit guys what he thought would play his style , make him look good and vise versa. Right now his guys stink and at the wrong time .
There is no chemisty and the bench is and i will say it again looks very uninterested.

The last time it felt like we had a winning team was the tournament year (although we were 7-9 in conference that year). That’s almost a decade ago. We haven’t had a top 4 finish since then. It felt like a sure thing a few days ago. Every win brings memories of the Pearl years. Every loss brings memories of the Baldwin years. |

Here’s a little bit of optimism. Neither of these losses was as bad as the blowout loss at home to winless UIC in 2014. There was seemingly no hope after that game. And we know what happened after that.

Loss moves us from 2nd to 4th...with NKU and CSU playing tomorrow. If we tie with NKU, we have the tiebreaker and we can keep the tiebreaker against CSU by beating them next weekend.
Oakland is 2 games back of us & WSU is 2.5 back with IPFW tomorrow and the tiebreaker on us, so top 4 is looking decent but still need to win one (possibly both) of the remaining games mainly depending how WSU does. WSU and Oakland also play this week.

It felt like a sure thing a few days ago. Every win brings memories of the Pearl years. Every loss brings memories of the Baldwin years. We miss Browning. He is our best defensive guy. Miss his speed. Miss him taking it to the rim. Him not being in the line up is putting pressure on Freeman and stress on KP and EJ. KP looks tired. I also think the ankle is not right after the injury at NKY. His rebounding is not the same. While being at the KC stinks, I think the energy will be in the building. Win that game, results in a top 4 finish. Home game on March 2. Win that, at least at 20 wins. Not evening counting for the CSU game. Let's see what happens in Indy. |

I don’t think there is any way Oakland can catch Milwaukee. The Panthers would have the tie breaker by virtue of beating NKU twice and thus having the better record versus the 3rd or 4th place team. I suppose NKU could theoretically be tied with Oakland at the end of the year, but that would involve a three way tie with Oakland, Milwaukee, and NKU, and Milwaukee would have the tie breaker by virtue of finishing 3-1 in that cluster.
Wright State is the only team that could take Milwaukee out of the top 4, and they are likely to win all of their remaining games (PFW, Oakland, Detroit).
Also, I think MKE already has the tie breaker against CSU? Beating NKU twice is huge.
