Man FAU is a bunch of low class punks. And world class floppers as well. Not a great way to end the season, but a good season overall. Needed ZZ in this game, just didn't have anyone that could create off the dribble except for Mashack. ON was a no show after a career game. Key and Jo just aren't consistent enough either. Too much on Santi's plate, and he didn't have a great game on offense. Aidoo and Mashack were great, and they're back next year.

Don’t really mind losing, but the complete lack of making good looks is nauseating. Oh well - maybe next year? Oh yeah - and getting out rebounded should be embarrassing to our guys

Actually the SEC usually does decently well in March. Overall the league usually at least plays to their seed level, unlike the Big 10 that always gets great seeds that go down early.

B1G has teams like Illinois that have made the Title Game. Put the leagues in comparison on # of Final Fours, Sweet 16s, etc. They kill the SEC.

Half of the SEC's march success is Kentucky and only Kentucky.

It is actually quite pathetic that schools like Alabama, Tennessee, Vandy, Ole Miss, etc. with resources have NEVER made Final Fours but Butler has made multiple, George Mason has, FGCU has, Loyola has and more, etc.

There is no reason the SEC shouldn't have teams in contention with Final Four and making Elite 8s every year.

Who knows if we even beat duke with ZZ… you can’t out this loss on not having our pg, all teams have injuries it’s tennessee responsibility to have someone ready to step up. Everybody that is using the ZZ injury as an excuse just don’t wanna say how ****** we played.. would ZZ have gotten us those rebounds ?? No man we lost bc we got bullied and pushed around by a mid major team. They beat us with our identity and god forbid a Rick Barnes team be able to shoot the damn ball.. we will always be one dimensional with Barnes and when we get to the tourney some other team is gonna bully us out and make us look like we don’t belong .

At least they scored 62, so we can still say we were undefeated when holding teams under 60 on the season. I hope we never play at MSG ever again, it's never fun to watch.

Thank you Senior class for all you did to get us to the Sweet 16. Truly. I appreciate it. I’m also excited though to see a roster refresh this off-season. The inability to put the ball in the hoop (the entire point of the game) is incredibly frustrating.

We refuse to recruit anyone who can do that. Grant could. But the last player we had who could go get a basket is Punter. Rick gotta change a little bit if he ever wants to taste a 'ship.
