Defense was poor in OT

Went away from Sallis being the focal point of the offense

too many turnovers

Let another big man have a career night

That’s the story of the game

And will be the story of the season. Barring something F-ton happening. We will come up just short in every game against equal or better talent. Every forbes team here has had this problem so far, they fight like hell, but until we start landing or get to use our Micky ds talent, we will never do more than compete and lose. That's the sad truth. There is a reason why the blue bloods usually end up on top . Without catching lighting in a bottle which sometimes happens to teams like a 83 Wolfpack or 85 Villanova,
Sadly our coach, who I love in every other aspect, hasn't shown that ability yet. We simply have to start landing the top 50 types to get over that hump
 
Good news is that most of this team should be back next year as they can’t transfer without sitting out.
 
I genuinely believe with Marsh's presence alone we win this game today. He could have scored 0 points but he protects Carr from getting into foul trouble and grabs a few rebounds/alters a few jump hooks by simply being a larger human. Also, you don't have to play Zack 30 minutes in a game where he shouldn't be playing more then 5 minutes max. I completely get the frustration that we're not finishing these games and don't want to come across as an excuse maker. But its hard when you are down 3 scholarship guys that are key guys in the rotation. We need to get healthy and get s break from the NCAA and I think this team starts finishing these types of games later in the season.
 
I don’t see it With this team this year, or with Forbes.

When exactly do we expect Forbes to put together a team that doesn’t top out at “on the bubble?” Because I tend to think the answer is never.

But maybe he is the best we can do.

Sorry for completely failing my OG Boards Brethen. Can't give a full breakdown of LSU.

KP projects 75-74 LSU; Torvik: 76-75 LSU. Love WF. LSU blows and WF owes them twice (and for the CWS). Major coaching advantage for WF. The day off helps WF more than LSU. Take WF as soon as you can. The line will move as the smart action will be on WF.

WF will be the 5th place finisher in Charleston. It's better than 6th...

Great call on this one.

I thought that for 40 or so seasons before it dawned on me that no, they won't. I mean, I want them to. But that's not how it seems to work.

Maybe if we ever get that one guy, or if no one on our team gets injured, or if the refs get better. But actually winning these games IRL? Nah.

With all the money I have saved from going to football games and now bball I might as well get baseball season tickets. Just wish they had the nice ones available.
 
Men’s cross country finished 24th at Nationals in a rebuilding year.

That’s top 25 in the whole country, and that’s end of year, not mid year followed by a sad, slow decline into irrelevance.

We’re a men’s XC and women’s golf school.

He's bewildered.

He doesn't know that some rando goes all-world on us every game, and it was simply his turn. He thought he had a basketball epiphany right there in Charleston and turned into LeBron James. Now he can't figure out how the game that seemed so easy the other night is so hard now.

Poor guy.
