Briggs: BG has resources to win big in men's basketball, but can it find the right coach?

BOWLING GREEN — By the end, it was not just most Bowling Green fans who had checked out on a second straight dispiriting men’s basketball season.

It was the team, too.

Friday night at Ohio said it all.

The Falcons needed a victory to capture the eighth and final seed in the Mid-American Conference tournament. The Bobcats were locked into the fifth seed, win or lose.

One team was playing for everything, the other — as far as postseason positioning was concerned — for nothing.

You just wouldn’t have known it.

Instead of an inspired last stand, the Falcons rolled over, their offense looking disjointed, their defense disinterested.
