This team was amazing. Took us to the next level. The end of the year injury bug kicked our *** with Niang. Nothing was rolling our way tonight (free throws, turn overs, transition points, threes, refs). Sad to see Kane and Ejim go. I am ready for next year!

Proud of how the guys battled this season. Totally different team with/without Niang. We had guys step up in the last two games in his absence(Kane in the first game, Hogue in the 2nd) but in the end it just wasn't enough.

Feel bad for Ejim and Kane cause I'm sure that's not how they wanted to play in their last games in the Cyclone uniform...

Kudos to Uconn - they brought it tonight. We will get to the final four next year. Hogue really impressed me. Great season!

Bummer of a game for Ejim, I didn't realize he was 3/13. It was only a five point game but felt like we lost by twenty. Oh well it was still a great year!!

What a season. So proud of these guys. I wish Mel could have gone out on a bit better note individually.

A lot could have better tonight, but I take solace in

1) an amazing season that exceeded expectations
2) a really really bright future

And

3) beer sweet sweet beer

Same with me... Felt we were never really in it but the score says otherwise...

Give it to Uconn, they were great. Free throws and missed layups were the key. We showed how good we could have been late in the game, but we didn't deserve this one, Uconn did. Good for them. Thanks seniors!

Fantastic season. Not even going to woulda, coulda, shoulda this one. Can't even refs! refs! refs! this one either. UConn played very well and executed the way they needed to against us. We finished this year with a fantastic winning streak that took us to the Sweet 16. Who can complain about that? And Hogue? Can't wait to see him play again next year.
