The one I am talking about would have won the game in regulation. Hunter tied it.
Culver was 5/22 FG. He may have made a single outside shot. If he did, I am guessing he was something like 1/10. He did have some nice inside scoring.

Sorry, but that is just dumb.
It only makes sense if you are convinced Bennett sees Wisconsin as a place he could really want to go. As just one example, he is well rounded and is a devoted husband and father. That said, what if his wife and children want no part of such a decision?
You seem to completely dismiss Bennett's perspective, values, etc. and we cannot know what they are.
Wisconsin is not necessarily indicted if they cannot lure Bennett though I agree they should give it their best shot.
Bullshit. If Roy Williams can be pulled from Kansas, Bennett can be brought home. His wife lived in Madison at one point- guessing they be OK doing it again.
But if the Badgers don’t do this, yes, it’s an indictment of the program. Bo Ryan made them good. Bennett would make them great. If the Badgers don’t act, they’re headed back to Yoder...
MC,
We'll just have to agree to disagree.
I for the life of me do not understand a rationale that requires insisting to know what a person may want to do.
You deny any possibility Bennett may simply not be interested sufficient to leave what he already has.
I am not Bennett and neither are you.

They didn't need a 3

Oh, I'm with you on that!
SO many subtle moves as far as substitutions, etc. UVA's bigs off the bench did not defend ball screens well in First Half, so Bennett did not play either of them in second half. On the possession that Hunter hit the 3 to tie the game, he had 5 perimeter players on the floor. TT "over helped" on that play, but you can't really blame them. All season long a post player would have been the one to help on the drive, but because UVA had no one in the post, there wasn't a defender there to stop Jerome, so Mooney came all the way off Hunter, which in retrospect was a mistake.

Dick and Tony coached 40 years cumulatively and this is the first title either has ever won. Dick lost in the HS state finals once with Eau Claire Memorial and lost twice in the NAIA with Terry Porter at UWSP.
Throughout he 70's and into the 80's, Eau Claire Memorial was known as the Minnesota Vikings of High School Basketball. They even wore purple uniforms. They would pound conference foes but couldn't win the big games ever, it seemed.

I remember that. It was always talked about in the context that Eau Claire Memorial would win the right to get to the state finals at the old Fieldhouse so they could get lose to whichever Madison or Milwaukee team they got matched up against in the semi-finals. I think Dick's last ECM team actually won a game in Madison and got to the state finals.
