On paper, Bo Ryan's recruiting seems to be slowly deteriorating year by year. Yet on the court, the team keeps outperforming itself. This is the Bo Ryan Mystery. Or Miracle.
Possibly because his recruiting classes are never in the Top 25, the media diss him. Even last night night. ESPN gave 5 minutes to the game and built the entire report around Dukie Kyle Singler. What????

Apart from coming away with a win, that was about the most painful game I have ever watched the Badgers play. I think both teams were taken out by the officiating and even when they played soft after 50-some fouls were called, there was a foul on virtually every possession. I think Leuer played about 10 minutes total. Hughes carried the team and had a couple big plays at the end and the held ball

Just wanted to say great game. You guys deserved that the whole way it would have been a travesty if that blown goaltend call would have cost you. You won this thing for the Big Ten with that win.

Well, I can't say I was surprised at the outcome, though the game was well competed at stretches. We didn't turn the ball over much but got killed in transition for the most part. Gonzaga deserves a lot of credit for clawing ahead with a lot of talent in Gray, Bouldin and Sacre plus a couple others. For such a new and reconstructed team they played very well together and deserved the win.

this was great and this team is still not even close to getting to it's potential. Everyone getting on board with me now that the Badgers will finish top three in the league. WHat Bo can do with athleticism is amazing.
P.S. JP Tokoto was at the game tonight

Wisconsin is entering a season in which many projections say that they will not make the NCAA Tournament for the first time in the Bo Ryan era. This, I believe, is just a lack of respect. There certainly is not as much raw talent at Wisconsin as there are at other schools, but they are better coached than almost any team and have a high level of willpower. They should be in good

How about a STATEMENT win?
I had no real illusions of victory, but to not trail Duke at any point all game? Wow, Badgers...this is BIG
Hughes, at risk of jinxing, is looking very, very good right now. He's shown us so many flashes in his last 2 years, but now he is taking over the team, making plays at the end, and really becoming the backbone of our team. Nankivil, I lov

As many probably know Royce White was suspended indefinitely for shoplifting and 5th degree assault. He tried to steal $100 of merchandise at Macy's and pushed the security guard down to the ground multiple times.
It will be interesting to see what Minnesota does with him. Taylor and Glover got dismissed for stealing from dorm rooms. I guarantee UM doesn't have it in them to suspend

Now that the tourney is over I think we can make some assumptions about this season....Good win vs. AZ game was pretty sloppy though but a wins a win.....Gonzaga played way faster pace the we were used to and we got lit up by a pretty good team...Strong win vs. Maryland we did a good job shutting down Vasquez and Leuer played great

The nonconference schedule is not completed but frankly from what I can see even if the rest are cream puffs the Badgers will have one of, if not the best SOS in the nation next year. Not only do they play Duke next year but they also play in the Maui Invitational (a hugely tough tourney), and they'll play Marquette and the other two in state schools. Knowing Greg Gard though I suspect an

On another thread there was some talk about recruiting and promises to recruits about playing time. Here is the link to the other thread. http://www.cbssports.com/mcc/messag

My point was that I think the coach should promise that with hard work, good defense and fundamental play they ca

I am pretty excited to see the Badgers tonight. I will be at the game in section 122, row BB. I was listening to Lucas and Lepay yesterday and they said the Badgers should be tested tonight by Oakland U. Does anyone have a line on Oakland? I haven't heard much about them other then a few comments such as, they are favorites to win the Summit league.

An observation about college basketball press coverage. If you haven't noticed...Kentucky beat Miami (Ohio) not Miami FL. Miami is ranked 133 on Pomeroy and 143 rpi ranking (CBS Sportsine). Kentucky is ranked number 4 in the nation and they should have beaten miami by a wide margin, instead they barely won the game. The only press coverage about the game is positive.&nbs
