How can possibly build momentum from a loss

[Gospiders06]

I don't understand how the players were happy losing by 13 points today. That we were able to compete and lose by double digits. You don't play for second place you play to win. I guess all the whole team believe this motion.

The whole program could careless about winning. It's about keeping margins close but still losing.

When Mooney was glowing in the Georgetown post game press conference, that tells us all you need to know. We are officially a bottom tier a10 program. It has been a steady decline with a few up turns, but mostly decline. Don't worry, Hardt is evaluating and will have us "competing" for championships in the near (or distant) future.

I can't decide what is more pathetic, the actual on-court performance, the spin on how a not very close loss is actually a win, or how the players and coaching staff seem to think this is all OK.

At this point, I would take Bill Dooley back in a skinny minute.

I believe it builds into the next practice ..... peaks by the end of the last practice before the next game ..... and don't need to tell you where it goes from there.

Would avoiding playing on Wednesday March 13 be considered a victory?

It would eliminate the possibility of yet another loss..........

Well, this was our first Quad 1 game.

And good news, IUPUI is predicted to move up to Quad 3 by the end of the season, and be our best win.

I didn't hear the postgame were Mooney and players trying to spin this blowout loss to Davidson as some type of moral victory. Nothing would surprise me at this point, to be honest with you. We have a huge "culture" problem.

I think Bob Black was trying to spin it as a moral victory with the comeback. Davidson lost focus on its offense trying
to get Frampton that 9th three.
