Is Huger tanking for a draft pick? That’s the only logical explanation why we could possibly be this bad.

This program is a mess right now. Needs a change in leadership, and needs it badly.

Well at least the end of the bench is actually getting a chance in a blowout instead of grinding the starters down to dust in a losing cause.

This should be perfectly normal - but Huger has proven he does not know the simplest things about running a game.

100% agree.

I gave Huger a massive amount of benefit of the doubt. But I was at WMU last Saturday. I am done.

He needs to go.

May I suggest going to the BGSU facebook page and commenting "fire Huger" at every opportunity?

At this point I don’t even think it’s worth waiting. Fire him now and let an assistant have a shot at some game plans with the talent.

Attended more games than any responsible student should have.

That's what I mean.

69 in a half means he has lost the team.

He needs to go. And he should go NOW.

I don't know what you really take away from this game. I bet it giving the 6.5 and I had zero idea we'd be without Matheny and Elsasser to go along with Lightfoot & Towns. WIth all those guys missing the only hope would be to just slow it to molasses and hopefully play it in the 60s, but that's not really something we can compete with either. 20+ point blowouts are embarrassing, but *shrug*. This is a bad BG team WITH those other guys...

Buffalo has always been a bad matchup because Huger's teams need to run to generate offense, we suck in half courts. Well Buffalo plays that style and has consistently done it better than us.

We just gave up 100 in consecutive conference games.

The worst thing is, this isn’t even a good Buffalo team! They were 8-9 coming into tonight and they are killing us like we’re a high school team. We absolutely should expect to compete at the top of this conference, yet we get crushed constantly in this single-bid league. We lost 100-71 against a peer in something we are supposed to care about! Make it make sense!

We will never make it back to the NCAA tournament without significant changes to the program, starting at the top. Respect to Michael Huger for coming home ant a time where the program was surrounded in controversy and being an outstanding man in the few times I’ve chatted with him, but he must go.

Wow...100 pts surrendered in two straight games. Simply awful
It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.

100……it’s a program record. Never been done back to back in school history I don’t believe. We gave this guy two contract extensions.

Yep, time to go. Team shows no effort and the UB bench was laughing their asses off at the end. Embarrassing

I have to believe he knows he’s gone. Almost nothing on the recruiting trail. I have no idea how he’s gone but he’s gone.

Oh he doesn’t think he is gone. He thinks everyone is just being negative.

Yeah, he's just in a down half decade. Can't figure out why fan support is so low and why nobody has faith in them.

Still doesn't know the difference between an oar and an effing paddle either...

If you weren't watching we allowed 100 because buffalo didn't play defense the last possession yet we still missed. Nobody on our team went past half court letting buffalo get an uncontested dunk at the buzzer. It didn't matter but zero pride when a team is show boating and pouring it on.

Ayers played almost the whole game and would have liked to get McComb and others more minutes. Ayers and Curtis are black holes and got to so their thing all game since we had nobody else to handle the ball.

Didn't understand why we kept pressing in the second half especially with the end of the bench playing
