Posting History (184)

The most frustrating season in quite awhile

Love you guys, but just weren’t greater than the sum of their parts

To quote the great Carole King,

Valiant effort but the boys

Could never figure out the formula for 40 consistent minutes (all year)

As you say, the gap is large. While Expectations (and hopes) were high

coming into the season, this team has been consistently competitive, especially in league play all season. THE FSU "Unicorn" game is the only real head scratcher outcome we had during the ACC schedule. Which makes those last second losses hurt even more because they truly are the difference between the NCAAs & the NIT. Obviously, the coaches have had the team scouted & prepared every game. It feels like a season of "what could have been", but I've enjoyed the effort and the ride regardless.

Ben did get mugged multiple times BUT

WE all expected no whistle. CMY should have also. Ben's small frame makes it easy for the stripes to not "decide" the game.

agree to disagree on that specific point. FTs in the last 10 seconds

when the game is literally on the line have greater consequence. I understand your point though. Every FT in a close game matter. Love your individual vs team practice breakdown on FTs.

Watching Kansas smoke Iowa St last night. Tre White lit up ISU & I thought,

Tre White, Tre White, why is he familiar to me? So, I look up his stats - 4 teams in 4 years, essentially playing all over the country. And obviously a solid player, essentially averaging double figures his entire college career (9 PPG freshman year at.....USCw). Geesh. I'm all for player rights after an eternity of servitude, but come on man. Truly a different world.

I mostly remember him playing significant minutes @ Duke early in the Seth

era due to the usual hose job Seth received in Durham. Jeff was setting solid screens and taking no crap from any Dukie. And I loved it.

Just returned from Cassell to my GA castle

What a thrill today was! So shorthanded, but the team played with a can-do attitude the entire 55 minutes. How great is the conditioning of this squad to play all those minutes at such a high, competitive level. Gurdak's effort in particular was inspiring. In only his 13th collegiate game (and 5th with meaningful minutes), he played like an old pro. Far from the most athletically gifted athlete on the floor, his in-game awareness and smarts were on full display. His help D in particular were impressive, as well as positioning for rebounds on both ends. Hammond was our energizer bunny. His weak side gambling on D bore fruit as did his toughness. But the shot of the game was the wing 3 by Amari in the 3rd extra period. No hesitation, no doubt, just a confident stroke. (Even if we were all thinking NOOOOOOOO!!!!) With a short bench, kudos to the coaches and the players for playing hard the entire time without getting into foul trouble at any point. Hoo tears are still the best tears!!!!

He's a very good coach, and by all appearances an excellent representative

for any program. Another damn hoo BB coach I don't loathe. Bring back LEITAO!!!!!! :)

What was disturbing to me

Was the lack of mental toughness. For most of the game (until the spirited press), the team acted like they didn’t want to be there.

Man, that stroke looked good Saturday (and repeatable)

If he can shoot close to Saturday with consistency, this is going to be such a fun season.

The Grim Reaper, aka Napoleon Berman shows up

To cover a mid-week game and interview Coach, and the wheels proceed to fall off the bus (for one game). You know he was smiling when he tweeted that Radford defeated #25 Hokies yesterday. What did we do to deserve him????
