  1. 1/23/2024 MBB vs. Pitt.

    We've now lost three home games to teams currently in the bottom third of the conference. Are you saying we just have a roster that is clearly second worst in the ACC?
  2. 1/23/2024 MBB vs. Pitt.

    We've now lost to 3 of the bottom 5 teams, by record, in conference at home.
  3. 1/9 - GT MBB vs Notre Dame

    Commit hari kiri? Do you think it's unreasonable to expect the head coach to take some of the responsibility after a 4th straight loss? Especially since the last three weren't exactly juggernauts and the last two were at home?
  4. 1/9 - GT MBB vs Notre Dame

    I didn't leave anything out. I said flat out that The quotes I picked were those that demonstrated the difference in the two pressers. Namely, one coach took responsibility while the other didn't. Yeah because after the FSU loss I posted... absolutely nothing. I even intentionally...
  5. 1/9 - GT MBB vs Notre Dame

    So it's fair to say that Miles Kelly has never been the guy on a winning team but not fair to say that CDS hasn't ever been the head coach for a team that made the NCAAT? Because when that was brought up excuse after excuse was made. And you'd think that the guy who was a first team all...
  6. 1/9 - GT MBB vs Notre Dame

    It's funny to watch the progression of this board when it comes to our roster. In the summer it was an amazing overhaul done overnight by our new staff to make us a much more competitive team and that it would be . Then in the early season we just needed time for the players to gel. Now our...
  7. My way too early, possibly problematic look at potential GT Hoops roster management

    I tend to look at things by position and year. If Nobody leaves we have the following with their class for next year. PG - George (soph), Abram (JR) SG - Kelly (SR), Terry (SR), Mustaf (FR), Forrest (FR), SF - Reeves (SR), Coleman (SR), Sutton (FR) PF - Ndongo (SO), Gapare (JR), Sacko (Soph)...
  8. 1/6 - MBB vs. Boston College

    They don't have to rule that there was no contact to the face. They have to rule that the contact that was called for the foul was a result of the hook and hold flagrant. That takes the common foul off by rule even if there was contact. But yes, the replay makes it clear that Kelly was...
  9. 1/6 - MBB vs. Boston College

    I would suggest going back and watching the replay then if you haven't. You could argue there was a foul before the high contact, but the contact above the neck was pretty clearly a result of Kelly bringing his arms up, the hooking portion, and then keeping them up as he went past, the hold...
  10. 1/6 - MBB vs. Boston College

    What matters is what was initially called, which I can only speculate on. My guess is they initially called the BC defender for the high contact and that prompted the replay to see if it should be upgraded. During the replay they saw the hook and hold and deemed the high contact was a result...
  11. 1/6 - MBB vs. Boston College

    In general, if a foul that is assessed to a player is deemed on review to be a result of a flagrant foul committed on them then the foul can be taken off. My guess is the initial foul was the defender having his arm up high around Kelly's neck, and then on replay the ref deemed that action was...
  12. North Carolina Hires New DC - Geoff Collins

    IMO two main reasons. The first is we were very bad defensively when he got here and weren't particularly well set up to have success. The second, and very fitting, is that Collins seemingly was very hands off with the defense despite that being his back ground. There was an article from...
  13. January 1, 2024 Mid-Season Evaluation

    Kelly is shooting three times the freethrows as last year and so despite hitting just 70% he is getting about 2.2 more points from the FT line per game than last year. Generating FTs has been one area he has really improved (my guess is this was part of the feedback he got from the NBA waters...
  14. January 1, 2024 Mid-Season Evaluation

    Very mixed bag overall. Team wide, rebounding has been real good, and defense has been improved and would be better if we likely didn't have to compromise it at times to try and generate offense. Long term, we can hope that either Gapare or Sacko can develop offensively, or guys like Sutton...
  15. 1/3 - MBB at FSU

    This is an important stretch of games for us if we want to make the NCAAT Coming off of the Hawaii tournament with 10 days off this is the last real extended break we have this year. This basically starts a cycle of Tuesday/Saturday games with a couple Wednesdays games instead until the third...
  16. 2023 Holiday Break - GT in the Diamond Head Classic

    Movement is also designed to get a shooter into a rhythm prior to the shot and allow them to step into the shot as well as, often, getting the defender to contest on the side opposite from the shooters shooting hand. But even disregarding that point, I agree if the shot is actually an open one...
  17. 2023 Holiday Break - GT in the Diamond Head Classic

    Kind of odd to point to one of the shots I ended up counting as a good look to make your point. I don't consider it a good shot because there were none of the hallmarks of a good shot about it. There was no real movement by the shooter prior to the shot. There was no real ball movement...
  18. 2023 Holiday Break - GT in the Diamond Head Classic

    So as a bit of an experiment I decided to go back and go through the Nevada game and look at all our 3 point attempts to see if it really was a bunch of good looks that we just didn't hit, or not. We shot 26 threes. Here we go. 1st - 19:40 - made shot Reeves. Not much movement by him...
  19. 2023 Holiday Break - GT in the Diamond Head Classic

    I was talking about specifically in the context of 3 point shooting. Overall George has clearly been the better player this year. Also, as a starter, Abram was at .1587 attempts per minute which is still higher than George but not as significantly higher. Regardless, that line was more just...
  20. 2023 Holiday Break - GT in the Diamond Head Classic

    Not sure the point of your inclusion of the quote is. Yeah, the roster was poised to live by the three. The roster includes everyone, not just the returning players. And that shouldn't be a particular disputed statement. You can just look at what the players had done prior to this year to...
