Yeah neither Omier nor Walker shoot the 3 ball, so we can go big and try to impact it that way.
That is random timing as the Georgia Tech game was his Wake Forest career high in rebounds with 9. He also grabbed 7 each of the prior two games, so you could argue he is currently rebounding at his best clip of his career right now.Also random observation - he was a pretty good rebounder last season. I remember a couple games last season where he had serious bounce, and I don't see that as much this season. Which seems strange, since he also lost a lot of weight.
He set a career high at Wake in rebounds against Tech. He's the third best defensive rebounder on the team. His ORB% numbers have definitely dropped, but I assume that's due to team makeup and what we're asking of him more than anything.If we beat Miami, it is because Monsanto goes off. 60% from three on high-volume. GT was the worst game I've seen him play since early in the season, not just shooting but some sloppy passes. Also random observation - he was a pretty good rebounder last season.

I don't see any other path to victory, cause we are not going to be able to stop the Canes.
Monsanto was quite a bit better at ETSU and last season in ORB. Defensive is about the same as last year, he was better at ETSU.That is random timing as the Georgia Tech game was his Wake Forest career high in rebounds with 9.

The only thing we have to gain from Duke losing is potential ACCT seeding.Duke plays ND, @Syracuse, Louisville, VT, NCSU, and @UNC... I'd like Duke to win all of those games and get back to a Quad 1. Duke is getting into the NCAAs regardless, so I don't see much to be gained from them sucking. I do, however, want them to beat the shit out of UNC in that finale and hopefully end UNC's chances of an at-large bid and any Q1 victories.
Definitely rooting for Wisconsin... Shouldn't take much for them to get back to Top 75 in NET. They have 4 home games left, all against decent opponents... If they can win 2-3 of those, they'll be back to a Q1 for us. Yeah, they are also a competitor, but I'm still more focused on Wake Forest winning basketball games than what others do. Run the table in the regular season (we won't) and we should have a strong enough resume to get in, regardless of others.
We haven’t won in Miami since…?
Also, the psychic joy of duke losing. That's pretty big!The only thing we have to gain from Duke losing is potential ACCT seeding.
in 2009, WF went to Miami with 4 dudes who all played 10+ years in the NBA and earned $300 million (2 of them still playing), plus 3 other top 100 recruits (!) and got rolled by 27
Miami had one future NBA player on the roster, DeQuan Jones. He played 63 games in the NBA. He scored 3 points in the win over WF.
NaturallyJack McClinton scored a season-high 32 points
Well, sure... But Jack McClinton.
32 points
Jimmy Graham also on that squad.
