Oct 16 2041: It's Finally Happened! - by electriceel883 on October 25th, 2024
We set our rivalry games an eternity ago with WI-Lutheran, WI-Superior, Ripon and Marquette...Lutheran finally beat us, today, 62-71
Mar 21 2041: Season for the ages - by electriceel883 on October 14th, 2024
We made our first Sweet Sixteen under my management. Facing a very dangerous Temple team I tried to slow things down, defend 3's and play a lot more man. They overcame all these things and reached triple digits, however we were ahead after the first half and lost only by 10. A valiant effort without Berg being able to take part. So proud of my team!
Mar 14 2041: What matters is where you end up - by electriceel883 on October 12th, 2024
After we snuck into the tourney as a #16 seed, we got the biggest tournament upset of my tenure, defeating Yale 98-80. Thomson and Wilson dominated from the post as I know they can. We shot very efficiently over all and especially from 3. So despite all the injuries, here we are. It will be big for H. Cole, because he returns from injury and will have a chance to get minutes for the first time in his career.
Mar 10 2041: Badgers show their heart - by electriceel883 on October 11th, 2024
In a season where 30 games (and counting) have been lost to injury, Wisconsin did what the standings didnt, win their way through the conference tournament and get a bid to the NCAA's. They beat Gonzaga by 25 despite the absence of Berg and Cole, a team they lost to twice in the conference season. I felt at beginning of the season we were talented enough to compete for promotion and much better than our 8th place finish and the team proved it today. It was a total team effort as 7 players scored in double digits, dished out 22 assist compared to 9 turnovers, won the rebound battle by 9 and and at least kept pace on 3 PT shots. To cap it all we bring in an outstanding crop of recruits, hometown Ed Moore, Milwaukee's Adam Halstead and Thomas Bailey.
Sep 01 2039: From uncontested afterthought to draftee - by electriceel883 on June 28th, 2024
Everyone slept on him before his arrival. Low SI, average post game, wasnt going to be a good all around player. He tuned all that out and kept working. 20 SI as a FR, working to prove himself and and gain a redshirt as a Sophomore. Improved his defence to allow less than 40% OFG. As a redshirt Sophomore upped his FG to nearly 60%. Mastered 3 positions, SF,PF,C, would play anywhere asked. Upped his FT% to over 80% as a JR, playing as much as 26 mins a game, gained a whopping 25 SI doing it. Started 40 of 41 games as a SR, turn in a +/- of 9. Once again limited opponents on D to 37%. Untracked Strength reached 18. Untracked Defense reached 24, was 10 or better in every single category. The very best of his 12 Potential at 181. Led the team to an opening round win vs. Delaware but unfortunately left the game with a season ending injury. Simply a Legend
