Didn't get a chance to listen. Just curious what Coach Pastner said as well as any of the players that were interviewed, if anyone has a synopsis. Thanks

The crap offensive scheme was the reason we got poor shot selection. Don't kid yourself. Also, we got exposed for running one true big, like we have all season, except it only works agains crap CUSA teams, not real D1 teams.

Thanks for the video! Michigan St was just too big and strong, combined with our shots not falling and the lack of rebounding by our bigs is what did us in. Hopefully getting bigger next year and having 3 or 4 legit big men (Shaq, Tarik, Austin, etc) will really help with rebounding. Geron and Joe will be one of the best backcourts in the nation next year as well. And the conference schedule will have Louisville, Temple, Cincinnati, Uconn, etc on it. All those things combined will make us better and tougher going into the NCAA tourney. It was good to get the monkey off the back this year and get to the second tourney game... next year we go into the future and see what happens. It's still a bright future Tiger fans. Sure am gonna miss DJ Stephens. Hopefully the Grizzlies pick him up.
As far as the NCAA tourney, it's been a crazy one so far. Georgetown, Gonzaga, VCU, Butler, etc all down already, and Temple is currently giving Indiana all it can handle. It was wide open this year, and Memphis just ran up against a better Michigan St team than many of us thought. They can win the national championship if they play with the intensity of yesterday the entire tourney.

Go Tigers!
Why didn't Antonio Barton play? He's an excellent 3pt shooter. I think he got in the game for only a few seconds. Wasn't he standing at the scorer's table and didn't he go in for a play or so. I never saw him go out. Maybe I was just seeing things and he didn't get in the game. With every one of our guys missing 3pt shots, maybe he could have been the one to make some.
