Skip used to say that the team will win when they get sick of losing.... about damn time that happens!
Did you even watch the game today! It’s obvious that Manning is a genius in game coach who was able to make an adjustment at halftime to get us back in the game. And it clearly works for VT! Unless you are suggesting that I shouldn’t base my opinion of a team or a lineup off of one game
Just watched a replay of the game. The four guard lineup was fool's gold. When the guards were hitting three's in the second half to cut into the lead they were also allowing layups on drives and offensive rebounds. When the shots quit falling and the turnovers returned Syracuse kept scoring over the Deac defense. Of course, the 27 minutes played by Thompson, Sarr, Eggleston Okeke and Mitchell yielded 1 point, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, 3 turnovers and 5 fouls. Of those five the only player who showed anything decent was Donovan. Pretty effective defense, three rebounds and two hard fouls underneath in six minutes. The rest earned their time on the pine.
This is completely accurate. Great post. Our issue remains that we need guys producing that are 6'5-6'9.
