Here’s some quotes from the Bruce Weber radio show on Thursday, March 5th, 2020.  Short post today….

“We were looking at the NET ratings and we are still in the top hundred of the NET ratings.  I think we are 99 or something.”…Bruce Weber, Bruce Weber Radio Show, 03/05/20

JM:  When one of the only positives you can put on the season is that you’re ranked number 99 in the NET ratings, it shows just how bad this season has been.

“We’ve been in most of the games, but have not found a way to win.”…Bruce Weber, Bruce Weber Radio Show, 03/05/20

JM:  Bruce has said this repeatedly lately.  Unfortunately, losing close is still losing.

“Last night we won the play hard chart 49-41.”…Bruce Weber, Bruce Weber Radio Show, 03/05/20

JM:  Bruce was referencing the Oklahoma State loss when saying this.  He sounds genuinely perplexed when they win the play hard chart but lose the game.  It’s so odd.

“You go back to the Pittsburgh game.  You make some free throws in that game and it might change the season.”…Bruce Weber, Bruce Weber Radio Show, 03/05/20

JM:  The fact of the matter is that they didn’t make free throws and really haven’t all season.  This is like saying “if we would have just made a lot more baskets, we would have won.  Duh.

“DaJuan and Mike will be our leaders next year.”…Bruce Weber, Bruce Weber Radio Show, 03/05/20

JM:  Notice who he didn’t mention?  Cartier Diarra.

“We cannot be casual next summer.”…Bruce Weber, Bruce Weber Radio Show, 03/05/20

JM:  I took this to mean that they were “casual” last summer, which was the catalyst to a record breaking losing season.  Next season should be very interesting to see if they can turn this around.
