Posting History (102)

I hate to say it again...

but today was another Gag moment. 2 run lead into the bottom of the 9th. Yesterday, I stand corrected more disappointed, but to not make it to Sunday at least is a gag job. Great end to season and to qualify but still...

Great season. Good game. Solid program but..

Just hurts losing on a passed ball. Feels like the Hokie Chokie to me. Would have rather lost 5-1. Sigh….

Had to take a flight for work with the game tied at 75…

Just finished watching the game upon landing….There are no words. I like these kids and feel for them. The game was there. Great effort but missing Hansberry and frankly a more athletic roster did this in. How can you lose by even out rebounding them??? I don’t get it. Just another lost season and at this point the soft serve ice cream has melted. It’s time to find a snack stand and manager to run it.

Soft serve ice cream

You know, it melts pretty quick. And I feel Tech is soft at times. Saw the last half of the 1st half until now. Think it feels soft and we just melt when the game matters. Gawd, I hope I am wrong as there is still a lot to play for But seriously…

That happens and it just shows how snake bit this program is.

Love Hansberry as a player. Really hope he stays another (he has another year left, right?)

I'd like to compare that vs the halfcourt and 3/4 court shots that go

against us and compare that vs other teams. We have to be the ones that are one of the most victimized.

Every inbounds is usually the same line up. A 1x4. Come on, you can grab

easy points off an inbounds play. And CMY never goes for that. Why draw a play where there is no chance for a 2nd shot??? I'm sorry...it's inexcusable.

Soft System = Soft Team

A nice offensive team when it's lesser competition (D3) or a team with minimal defense. But when it matters the most, it isn't suited for games like this. And always have trouble finishing at the rim when it isn't a Lawal dunk

Add that Miami Buzzer beater in 2022; that's 5

either buzzer-beating half-court/full-court shots or go-ahead shots. Can't make it up

I am thinking it is a Low IQ Coaching Staff...

Everyone in CBB indicates CMY is a great coach. I think he is a solid above-average coach at best. One great March run but are we winning more games than we should lose? or losing more than we should have won? Seems like we snuck one with UVA and then have lost 3 lately that we should have won (WF, Stanford, and SMU). IDK, that away last year and I don't see the accolades at this point. Maybe I am missing something...

Spot on; This 4 wide inbound is horrible. Game after game. How about you..

try and steal quick baskets on inbounds at your hoop? I continue to SMH each game on how much of a waste we are at inbounding.

Total H-ee Ch-ee Job. & How many half-courters will this program lose to?!?

Infamous Duke half-courter in the mid-2000's Xavier early in 2008 The full-court half time shot vs Texas in the NCAA tourney in 2022 that turned to be the go-ahead Am I missing any??? Un-fn-real! (5.5 Sec and the game is in hand. And even get an offensive rebound off of a missed free throw. NIT at best for sure.)

Right on. CFB and Bud aren't relative now. Hire someone with Fire & an Edge

Let them insert their own culture and personality. The "aw shucks" nice guy doesn't win in college sports. You have to have fire, personality, and push every limit possible in every junction. The nice guy, positive rally around approach doesn't work. New guy, new culture. As far as at the top. Idk the personalities but that needs to be reevaluated too! (Please no more stupid hype videos either)

There are so many. So many choke jobs.

This was a bad one. But weather and certain borderline calls...idk. Tough to watch it unfold but nothing new for this athletic program.

The Lounge 1 y ago

Metallica Parking Info + Parking Pass Release

The info on the parking has been confusing. Bought parking back in September; did any one get their passes yet? Or has there been a time when the parking passes will be released? (Or did I miss something?) TIA

Pantera

and Metallica... any one of you yawl releasing any hotel rooms? (I know probably the wrong board, but let's mix it up on this night)

Eh....I don't have faith; probably in the minority

but feel the constant turnover is better suited for different systems. ones which are more defensive driven and rely on athleticism. basically ones that new players can be inserted in and learn quickly. I am not sure, but CMY's seems to take some time. (just what my basic bball brain and knowledge sees).

Agreed! I’ll take Buzz any day of the week

Don’t get the hate for him here. Took a job that was better-resourced

I miss Buzz and that team's mentality and team make up

Just grit and hustle. We were lucky to have him (despite him moving onto greener pastures)

I will put an AGREED to this as well

The chance to secure the victory in regulation with a chance for a player to catch a ball has to be made. Inexcusable to then not use a TO when there is a sense of trouble. There was trouble right away!

Well said. Horrible inbounds play at the end of regulation.

Will also add, bad free throw shooting at the end of regulation. 1 of 4 at one juncture and hit one of those, and this game does Not go to OT. Don't have the dudes that go after it and put the foot down on another team. Great effort for parts of the season but.... I still don't see how this is supposed to run back. No excitement for this program. Just feel its time to reset.

Run this back in 2025-26? ...

Idk...I know I know More resources for the portal now, but still.
