Damn, I am still pissed after last night's effort (or lack thereof). An extremely frustrating night for all of the Deacs, coaches, and fans. Syracuse was hot and their zone gave us trouble most of the game and the entire 2nd half. Get ready to see more zone w/Pitt. We need to fix the weak-ass passes against these active defenses. Why we didn't have someone running the baseline & baby corner for inside entry "bounce" passes was embarrassing. I get that in-game coaching is hard, but Forbes and staff should have really reamed the team out on this or given others a chance to show something. And, why we didn't attack Edwards when he picked up his third foul was a huge mistake. Yet, when your players are playing soft and giving the ball away you're not going too many fouls in your favor.
IMO, Carter and late 3-point shots by walk-ons are like blaming the deck chairs for why the boat sank. Carter is still young and his confidence, strength, and shooting is not where it needs to be right now. The dude can play and he just needs time to grow.
I love this team and hope we can grow from this and get a big W vs Pitt. After them, the schedule gets a bit scary.
