During the week, Tom Izzo and the staff had long meetings; Izzo even had time to do some self-reflection.
It wasn’t just Izzo that had some reflecting to do after the loss. A.J. Hoggard and Malik Hall were the subjects of much of the social media criticism, after combining for 10 points against the Gophers.
Hoggard knew that he needed to do a better job down the stretch of games, including getting better shots for the team around him.
He needed to prove it on the court.
