Tae Hardy redeems himself after missing 2 Free Throws
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
HARDY WITH THE REDEMPTION!!!!!! Glad I stayed awake for this one!!
This season is going to be fun!!!
Good win. Ugly win. Shoulda won by 10 or more.
Bradley worries me. Enjoy this, get rest and another chance to improve Wednesday night.

Almost gave it away. Good win!!!
Terrell celebrating before it going in too lol
Big Shot Hardy, what an Ending!!! I'm going to bed now 💤
Nice win! The refs were really bad. We made our free throws. Good defense. It was worth staying up for. Good night and go Miners!
Never seen the Miners win a live game at 2:35am before! Crazy finish!!
This cal team is not a bad team —- gonna see how they do the rest of the season
Bradley looks legit.
Ehh disagree, UTEP made them look bad for most of this game and Cal really couldn’t make shots most of the morning unless it was right at the rim as they were def bigger. Golding slowed things down at the 3 min mark and Cal had some breaks go their way during that final stretch to make it interesting, still a good win but I’ll be fading Cal against high-majors all year they are poverty for a high-major program.
25 win team from a year ago with some good players back, it'll be a quality opponent.
Good to win a game where we can't hit a shot. That defense is gonna keep us in plenty.
Two years Golding stated one of his biggest goals was to have the team ready quickly after a game. Bradley game is a good test.
I didn't stay awake for this one (I work at 6 am man). Nice surprise to wake up to.
“It's the first buzzer beater for the Orange and Blue since Alfred Hollins's tip-in to beat the clock in a 70-68 triumph against Florida Atlantic on Jan. 27, 2022.

Love that last play. Zid being a scorer could have forced the shot himself and no one would have thought a thing about it. Instead….. unselfish, team play.
My old a$s body failed me last night. Fell asleep sometime after halftime. Feels amazing to wake up reach for the phone and see this score. Golding might be on to something.
Tired as hell this morning, but feels so much better with the win 😀
Great game to stay up and watch, to the last FREAKING SECOND! What a nice team win, and they hit their free throws! Had they not, they'd be 4-1... Props to Kalu, I like the way he defended, and stepped up! There was a time, when they zoomed in on Joe Golding, with a solid "deer in a headlight look" haha that was hilarious and creepy! Bradley will be a great test!

Bullshitted with yall all night and forgot to turn on my alarm. Signed into work almost 30 mins late lol
It was for a good cause.
Same. I haven’t slept in until 9:00 in a long time and I’m still tired. I also couldn’t fall asleep until 3:30 or so. Damn adrenaline.
Agree. The win makes it worth it.
Strangely I have more energy than if I had slept the whole night. Winning really cures all
The Miners shot 37.7% from the field, 29.4% from deep, 80.5% from the stripe.
Aside from the elevated free throw percentage, the shooting was poor. There never seemed to be any flow to the offense. Neither offense to be fair. Too many whistles and long stoppages. It was ugly.
But…there is no way the Miners win this game a year ago. Last year it was hang in there, hang in there, hang in there, ahhh close but no cigar. Despite the shoddy play, to win a game like this was huge towards the identity of this team. It’s been a while since we could even say that the Miners have an identity.
Golding has these guys playing as a team. Seems to be minimal, if any, selfishness. They look like they’re having fun. It’s fun to watch again.
On to Bradley. Another good test to see where we are. Go Miners!!

The mention of Bradley sparks excitement for me. While they may lack the prestige of a P5 team, this squad is solid. They outplayed us in Golding's first year, and they've only improved since. Facing another conference champion, is a solid measure of our team's strength. If Golding secures this win, the hype is bound to escalate.
