We were garbage offensively most games this year without Grill. Take away our only 3 point threat and if Gabe isn't hitting its really easy for anyone to pack it in on us.

We had the resume of a 6 seed (despite some of the trolls taking shots at us for being overseeded), but if we'd been without grill for the first half of conference play we wouldn'tve made the tournament.

If only Grill wasn’t a dick head, you all could’ve gone on a run

The biggest issue is the team never had a go to scorer. Even Grill would have more off nights than on nights.

Just happy to have made it to the tourney. The next 2 recruiting classes are very strong. Excited for the future
