Wasn’t it great, when Kansas State was skull-fucking our “defense”, to realize that we were still efficient enough on offense to remain in the top 40 in KenPom?
I thought it sucked, personally.

Is there any other reason other than total desperation that people think a Buffalo transfer who averaged 3 points and never played more than 14min a game, is going to be a significant contributor on this team? Okeke should be better than Smart unless there is something lm missing.
To be fair, Buffalo was rated better than Wake last year.
Voted 15 because Danny seems like the kind of coach who will just enough games in the appropriate season to keep his job. 15-17 or 15-18 and maybe one Top 25 win is enough ammo for Wellman to keep the shitty coach around for another season. Next offseason 6-8 players will leave or be run off, and we'll be right back where we are today.

We can win 10 games next year and I don't think Wellman will fire Danny. We are going to have to wait for Wellman's retirement if your hoping for change.
Again, people said the same about Bzz before his canning. I think Ron gets a little unfair rep for being intransigent -- if he were as bad as people make him out to be Bzz and certainly Grobe would've stayed even longer than they did
P much. Just don't buy the Manning will stay until Ron goes take based on what's gone down in the past

You're probably right about this. That's why us serious fans have been calling to fire the BOT. Failed leadership comes from the top!I agree. I don't buy that Ron has complete control over the hiring and firing of Manning anymore.
I went 14 wins. I think there is upside, above that, but we are sooo young. Anything less than an NCAA tournament birth in year 5 should be dismissal. Manning had 2 years grace because of [Redacted] and things were trending pretty good in the 16-17 season. Last year's struggles combined with this offseasons departures have left him in a precarious spot. Don't see how he can be retained after this year if he doesn't have really solid success.
Okay, but a smart man fires a coach once it becomes obvious they are ill suited to the job. If anyone had doubts about BZ after one year, there were non after 2 years. He screwed Wake basketball for a generation by keeping him 2 more years after that.
Buffalo was KP #67 last year; WF was #89. Smart is from Greensboro. He transferred so that he could play closer to home and in the ACC. His minutes were limited because of injuries as he missed the first 10 games of last season. He is a big body and can rebound and dunk -- shot 68% from the field. He will play a small role this year.
