That was amazing. Bernard hit 3 with 42 seconds left and Butler ends up with possession and shot clock off.

ONCE AGAIN, a coaching error by Mack. I swear the guy is losing his edge.

Get it together Coach!!

Rough last minute for the clock guy there.

And, I'm sorry. He may make me look like a fool, but I am about DONE with the Kaiser Gates experiment this year.

Hit a f-ing wide ass open shot kid. This isn't CYO.

Ive always agreed with a lot of what you've said in the past, but I think this is a little absurd

Not sure how they didn't get a 5 second call. Took them almost 10 seconds just to gather the ball and inbound it. Must be a Butler guy running the clock.

And don't drive the ball into the corner with 4 on the shot clock. He's soo scared to shoot it now that he's passing up open shots

Xavier couldn't play any worse, so there is that...

You must have missed the first half of last night's game.

What? Ever watch an NBA game where they have a foul to give in a Quarter? They ALWAYS take the non shooting foul to make the other team reset.

X had chances to take it, but clearly Mack was more concerned with jawing at the refs
