Thank you Cougs for an Incredible Run!
Making the Sweet-16 is a huge victory for Pullman/WSU/Palouse!
I think Kyle Weaver summed up the NC game perfectly- "It was an Ice Storm out there". Meaning- all Coug shooters were ice cold.
The Cougs played their game....defense was perfect (holding NC to <70 points)......they just could not make a shot! If D-Low/Taylor/Daven would have hit a few threes...different story!
So: Defense was perfect, but offense was MISSING!
Oh well....sometimes the damn ball just won't go in the hole!
We had one of those nights. It was NOT the Tarheel Defense- we had great looks! they would not drop.
BAYNES PLAYED OUT OF HIS MIND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In a post game interview, with Low "when Baynes fouled out I thought- I will never be on the court gain with Aaron, and same thing when Cowgill left".....if he is thinking about these melancholic ideas, no wonder his 3-point shot would not drop!
In my opinion, I prefer to take "humanity" over "die-hard-competitive-bicker-at titude"....even if it means not seeing the elite-8.
Cowgill was in tears with the same type of philosophical insights (amazing- he is the man for showing his emotions on national TV)!!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent Work Tony! A Beautiful Team.
I can't wait for next season!
Cheers-
Bert Bogden
