    Notre Dame at GT

    The only person that definitely will not be back is Javon Franklin. Everyone else is eligible to return to due to the COVID year. No matter how you slice it, no matter who the coach is a year from now, transfers will factor heavily into the equation.

    Wasn't even close.... :cool:

    Notre Dame at GT

    I've seen a lot of talk about how he lost the locker room and how we should expect whole transfers. I don't buy into that too much. I expect some attrition but not a mass exodus. You could tell from their excitement level during and after the game that they are still playing hard for each...

    Notre Dame at GT

    That’s what you missed in the first half. He played really well for them, but our smaller guys were able to get him into foul trouble. That helped considerably.

    Notre Dame at GT

    Posted this elsewhere: Deivon Smith is playing at a high level. If he had ANY kind of jumper, he’d be a sure-fire NBA guy! From Kelly Quinlan’s report, “Deivon Smith fell just short of a triple-double with eight points, nine rebounds and seven assists off the bench. He added two steals as well...

    Hell, I couldn't even give these away.

    Coaching Carousel 8 - Teamwork means never taking all the blame yourself

    No thanks on Ron Hunter....I've never been a fan. Who is the guy that he is referring too from the Big South and Colonial?

    I'm traveling this afternoon and will be unable to make the game. Any interested in a pair (and a parking pass). Shoot me a DM if you are interested.

    Big Men in ACC MBB

    Please understand that my skepticism isn’t aimed at you, I agree with all you said, but I’ll believe it when I see it.

    Big Men in ACC MBB

    Good big men are in high demand, and for one that’s gonna move the needle, it will cost you. I feel pretty confident in saying that we wouldn’t get a James Banks type today without some type of NIL incentive. Too many other programs offering those types of bags for them to say no.

    When does Pastner feel heat

    I'm not saying that you are, but we shouldn't be comparing ourselves to LSU. Yes, they rebuilt their entire roster through the portal, but that is because they have donors willing to pony up big bucks. Even if our donors decided to invest, it would never be on par with the bags LSU drops...

    Improvement

    Or, maybe he feels like NC State is really capable of making a run. I do as well. It seems pretty clear that you haven’t been watching very closely this year, but this isn’t a “run of the mill” NC State team. This is one of their best teams in years. They’ve been one of the best in conference...

    Improvement

    I just don’t understand the need to make things up like saying he’s hunting moral victories to try and make your point. It’s entirely possible to be mad or frustrated about this season without exaggerating or discounting good things he’s done.

    Improvement

    We all know where you stand, many feel the same way, and none of us are happy, but why make **** up? You really believe Josh is touting this as a moral victory? Everyone on this board is unhappy, especially those of us that eat, sleep, and breath college hoops, or those of us that invest actual...

    When does Pastner feel heat

    We finished 5th in conference in 19-20 season; we were very hot at the end of that year. If Jose hadn't hurt his ankle and tried to come back to early for UGA, we easily win 20 games that year. The fact of the matter is Josh had two very good years in row (5th & 4th place finishes), the first...

    LOUISVILLE 2/1/23 GAME THREAD

    Our leading rebound in ACC play (Deivon) was on the bench in street clothes. He's been our best player, not having him really hurt.

    IF Pastner is fired, who would be a good hire to replace him?

    It's not the $300 that would be an issue, its the fact that he took a high-schooler to a strip club???? :eek::eek: I'm curious, why do you tend to doubt it? He checks all the boxes... Clean background. No baggage other that Cheetahpalooza - which most don't consider a big deal. Young and...

    IF Pastner is fired, who would be a good hire to replace him?

    Always thought that one day he might return and lead us to greatness. Does anyone really believe that he would be considered about the Wendell Carter fiasco? If history is any indicator, I cannot imagine that the administration at GT would be able to get past it, but he is what we need. He...

    Coaching Carousel 8 - Teamwork means never taking all the blame yourself

    Anyone defending any of the AJC writers needs a reality check. Nevermind his opinion on this team, everyone knows we suck, but those guys are trash.

    What the...?

    I'm sorry, but you have no clue what you are talking about here. You couldn't be further from the truth. This season has been deeply troubling for him. No, we're not winning basketball games, and that falls directly onto Josh, but insinuate that he doesn't care or that he is somehow...
