Clemson without their best player. That one stung.
Clemson and BC were the only losses we shouldn’t have had. And one was a conference road game. So not really a bunch.
Agree with those saying it was pretty bad luck that our schedule was as putrid as it ended up being. If you looked at it before the season I think it would’ve looked more like a 200-250 level SOS rather than 350.
Definitely was one that hurt. Clemson did spin that into a 5 game win streak that ended with the VT buzzer shot.Clemson without their best player. That one stung.
Yep, apparently the ACC sucks. I would argue the ACC 6 (Duke, NC, Miami, Wake, ND, and VT) would hold up well on the court versus SMU, Wyoming, Xavier, Iowa St, Michigan, Texas A&M.
Nonetheless likely time to zero in on the NIT selection show. Wake wins home games they get to play at MSG and maybe hang a banner.
Then LaRavia goes pro… Mucius, Walton, and Davies move on and we start back at ground zero.

The Miami home loss was brutal after being up 13. BC up 10 (yuck).. Hard to say we should have won at Cuse when we lost by 20+.

This last point is the main one that upsets me. This year isn’t some building block year for next year. It is a stand alone year after which a bunch of players are going to leave. Not making the NCAA’s this year is a failure.

Why are you assuming that last sentence is definitely going to happen?
he went recruiting which is arguably the most important part of his job. He had to go on that trip. Had to. We need players.
if you want to mince up his other actions and filet him for a job not well done, that's fair. Everyone makes missteaks from time to time.
The ACC presumably gave WF the final weekend off because we had been the only program to play in every single ACCT Tuesday session. Hopefully next season we play at NCST on the final Saturday.
After the State win, Forbes said he was going to see Zach play if they (Zach's team) had won that night. If not he had no plans for Saturday. Didn't sound like he was on a recruiting trip to me.
Yes, the ACC didn't schedule a game for us on Saturday, but that doesn't mean you have to give the team off from Wed to Mon. Add in that we heard the Monday practice was crap, I'd say those were bad choices.
No game on Saturday? Schedule practice to keep the team in sync by having the team work together on a day they would normally have played.
Maybe we should have learned from our other bye week (we did play BC on Monday) but what did we do then? Crapped ourselves in the Carrier Dome.
Because we are conditioned to expect the worst.
Who does the committee want to play bad teams? Only other bad teams? That is creating a permanent lower class with no chance at upward mobility. Some of those teams rely on games against better teams for money for their athletic programs. The committee chair is commissioner of the Southland Conference. The Southland is horrible. No top 200 teams in Kenpom. Punish teams like Wake and you are never getting a good opponent Southland. No more games for the SWAC, Horizon, MEAC, NEC either.
