This is not rhetorical. We have been in control of the last 2 ACC road games and had real chances to win against two top 5 teams if we could have just finished those games. Not being greedy but at least 2 of the 4 would have been nice. Seems like we lose our ability to execute, make shots, make fee throws and do the simple things like rebound in the last 2 to 3 minutes of a game. Today was so frustrating! Greg Mclinton completely lost his focus.(including knocking the last rebound out of Devin's hands into the Clemson player's hand in perfect position to lay it in) Devin missed his usual free throws when we neede them. No one could make a shot. And Cody let stupid Rod Hall reach around (probably a foul) and knock the ball away after we got a great rebound. I just don't understand how all of those things go wrong at the same time.
I tend to think it mostly has to do with a lack of upper class leadership and I don't mean that as a slap against Codi and Devin. They were so poorly coached over the past 3 years there was no way to gain the experience needed. And the other players we have to depend on were not playing here last year.
What do you guys think?
