Too many injured players and too much massive funk. Sad.

This is an unbelievable freefall. Tony should start Powell on Sunday and bench
the other 4 starters. I just edited what I was going to say.

The team played one of the best games ever at DePaul. I guess they had too good a time
at the ticker tape parade.

I still believe they can salvage the season, but they probably have to win the remaining games
plus 1 if not 2 in the BigEast Tournament. Tony may have to go to a 3 guard system.

Let's see if the gals can dig deep into their hearts and souls.
