Worst game I can remember in recent history.

Has he come in since he didn't dive on that ball? I think that was the last time

When Frank Agunanne has more points than Custer, Skokna, and Williamson combined.....

Right. Forgot about that. I don't believe he did.

Seemed like porter should have subbed in Frank earlier, we needed his size in this game.

I want all the rest of our games to be on ESPN+ if those guys are the best tv team cbs can get for valley games. Granted, we played a poor game, but going in we were 9-6. I’m a huge Loyola fan, but we are not duke. They acted like Evansville was taking down a national power, and to me, there’s a difference between commenting on poor play, and completely dumping on a team. That was way more painful to listen to than it was to watch, and given that particular game, that is saying a lot.
We played our worst game of the year. It pretty much can’t get any worse than this one. The only bright spot was Big Frank. Of all the losses we’ve had this year, the one thing I could say was that in each of those games, despite the frustration, we never quit working hard. We can’t say that now. They gave up in this one
Porter has to be livid. It id going to be a bad day tomorrow in Gentile. I hope Custer and Townes call another players meeting. I still have faith in this team, but they need to put it back together quickly now.

Hard to disagree. To not come up with any response whatsoever was very weak.

That was really ugly. The broadcasters were the only thing worse than the offense. Once again
reasonable D, and Evansville was ripe to crack with any push from the Ramblers. It never came.
Something about that place. Seems we never do well there. Can't understand the hot / cold nights.
I expect we will demolish them the next time around. Agree?
Waited all day to watch this one. Oh well, on to Il State on Saturday. Bounce back in order.
I am still waiting for this group to be consistent game to game as is PM and everyone else.
Makes me wonder whats wrong with the chemistry here. I thought our experience would help us to avoid these road game cave in's.
While I am in a sad mood, lets toss the officials under the bus too. This moving screen stuff seems to be taken too far.
I'd swear Aguak was called and did nothing. Another play, Bruno is whacked to the ground and there was no call. Gotta put this one away. Learning curve is painful. Agunanne showed well, and ran the floor hard. Nice to see....
Go Ramblers....

Our 2 centers, Krutwig & Agunanne, played only 27 minutes getting 3 fouls, 27 points, 9 rebounds, shooting 10-14 FGs.
The other 13 minutes at center were covered by small forwards Uguak & Negron who went 0-4 FGs for the night with 6 fouls.
We played guard Marques Townes at power forward for 21 minutes who got 1 rebound.
MIDGET BALL DIDN’T PRODUCE.
The good news on the night is that Frank’s talent exploded in the 8 minutes the coach let him play & Lucas Williamson is healthy again.
Hopefully we will see a lot more of the Frank & Lucas & a lot less of 4 guard lineups. Likewise lets see our centers play center & our power forwards play at the power forward position.
Go Ramblers!

Another thought: Skokna 21 minutes & Agunanne 8 minutes. Something is radically wrong with this picture.
