I was out and about so didn’t see the game. A friend and fellow alum called while I was making dinner to give me the news. Later I checked the box score. Looks like Cal had twenty more shots than VaTech but made six fewer. Not a good sign.

Argh that ball was halfway in.

Cal’s definitely on the right track but to compete for any type of postseason Madsen needs to land much better bigs.

Agree. No real offensive threat.

Really, our former guard Rodney Brown might be the one who puts a knife in our back? Ugh

Still can't believe they made a game of it...

Sissoko with a bonehead foul.

This is the Petraitis I thought we were getting.

Love the hustle but wish he could shoot.

Gotta hit that 3, tho. Wide open, great play call.

he's weirdly just not a puller when it comes to 3's

He needs to sit down and shoot like a million 3's. There's no reason for him to be as bad at 3's as he is, considering like...everything else he's good at. He'd be drafted if he could shoot 3's.

They tie it up and then immediately let Va Tech go on a 9-0 run. Ugh.

Wilkinson too

Also. Wilkinson needs to start.

I like him coming off the bench when our starters inevitably forget how to shoot.

But you can’t get down like they’ve been doing lately.

Someone finally explained the rules of basketball to the team. They're putting the ball into the hoop and defending.

this seems bad, is this bad?

Basketball is one of those high score wins sports, right?

Turned this one on late mercifully only to catch Blacksher wave off his teammates to clank a three off the rim and then let the rebounder go past him uncontested for an easy basket plus a foul. Just brutal.

He seems overmatched at times.
