MBB Game 29: WF at Clemson - Wednesday 7 pm - ACCN

sick or not, we look tired. very tired. ManMan playing more minutes this year than his previous two years combined. Walton playing more minutes this year than the last three CBB seasons combined. Jake with his career high in minutes played and being asked to do a lot.

From the formation of the ACC until the Nut Punch, WF was 26-26 at Clemson. WF is 1-10 at Clemson since then.

I don’t buy the tired excuse. There are teams that are playing 3 and 4 games a week to make up games lost early in the year. WF has played two games a week this month. It has had at least two days off before each game. In the ACC tournament, WF may have to play 4 games in 4 days.

Clemson played with a shorter bench than WF. Why weren’t they tired?

not making an excuse. It's a fact that those guys have shattered their minutes played records. Did they look fresh to you?
 
Walton is 7 feet tall. In 26 minutes tonight, he got a single rebound. One. Fucking. Rebound.

Let’s not give Forbes a pass on this result. We settled for quick threes all game.

I said that half sarcastically. We've settled for threes all year and are not a good three team. We have won this year mostly due to defense and have won a few games when our threes fell during timely moments. But we haven't been a physical team all year. The one guy who plays physical is Alondes. Hildreth too, but he doesn't hardly play. That's it. Jake is a big body and will bang sometimes underneath, but he gets pushed around too. I've said all year he needs to hit the weight room in the offseason, and I'm sure he will.
 
Forbes called out Whitt twice in his press conference for that awful turnover. First time I felt he called out some players. He was pretty mad.
 
And even worse than the turnover was him chucking up a stupid 3 on the next possession. He fucked up on the turnover but he made a conscious decision to shoot that three and he sucks at shooting.

And thats the frustrating mental bullshit with this team. We are one of the top 5 two pt teams in the nation and what did we start the game shooting 3s on 9 of our first 10 shots? That's just so fucking stupid

Jake takes full responsibility for the loss. Told the boards to stop blaming it on Carter Whitt

Mentioned Walton missing the bunnies

Jake, if coach hasn't told you, stop bringing the ball up and stop dribbling 3-4+ times in halfcourt sets, especially in traffic. Go look at the tapes. TOs are the result 100% of incidences....

He also missed a wide open 3 in the first half and was so shocked it was online that he stood and watched in the corner vs following his shot which would have led to an easy bucket.
 
Forbes can call Carter out all he wants, but he is the one making the conscious decision to put Carter in the game. What did he expect to happen?
