Just one more reason to wear gold or white and not navy. With the way the court is high lighted and everything else is low lighted in McCamish, navy clothing blends in to the navy seats and looks exactly like empty seats on TV. Great game Jose! Great win Yellow Jackets!

Hmmm... the last minute or so is interesting.

It’s been a long day, but by my math, 9-3 from here on out only gets us to 17-14. 8-4 gets us to 16-15. Both of those outcomes are unlikely in my opinion, but either would still require a deep run or a championship win in the ACC tourney to get into the NCAA tourney.

I don’t know how the NCAA appeal process works or whether or not we can drop the appeal and take the post season ban this year, but if we can then that’s what we should do.

Some positives since we did play well this game. Jose played a helluva game guarding Nwora the ACC leading scorer and holding him to half of his season average on 3-11 shooting. Jose also had his first ever double-double with 10 rebounds. Devoe had a very good scoring game scoring 21 on 7-14...

Khalid Moore has started 20 games. Can’t sniff the court. Evan Cole has started 10 games. Can barely get on the court and gets zero leeway then gets pulled. Bubba started 60 games at VMI, led his conference in scoring 22 points per game on 15 shots and took 9 3’s per game. Asanti Price has great...

I too thought the 3 ball on the last possession wasn’t a bad play. Probably had as good a chance or better than trying to drive and risk a turnover. I feel bad for devoe that he missed it.

I know. I would prefer to stay positive, but it ain’t easy sometimes, so I try to just call it like I see it. I would also like to see bubba be more aggressive. I even think he is capable of much more than just spot up shots from 3. I looked back at his stats from VMI. He averaged 21 points on...

It’s a common refrain, but I have to say it again. The (basically) 6 man rotation probably cost us again. I know it is tempting in the first half when we’re shooting 60% to stick with what’s working, but you have to know that the fatigue is going to catch up to you later in the game. We even had...

Moses definitely got fouled hard on that last short shot at the basket. BS no call. Wish he could have finished that shot despite the contact. Would have tied the game with seconds left.

I generally agree with your pessimism, but I disagree about Parham being out of his league. He made a few great plays, like when he saved that errant pass from going backcourt, then found James wide open under the basket and made the home run 45 foot pass.

0 from the bench is a joke, but it’s all on Pastner. He just cannot manage player minutes and substitutions. The 2 guys you mentioned didn’t play in this game or any game in forever.

You are one hell of an optimist. Seriously though, I agree that first half was very good (except still too many turnovers), but ultimately we lose another close game. One would think in close games, you win some, you lose some, but we lose every single one.

OK, just so we all understand, your position is specifically that Jose, Mike, Moses and James should never come off of the court and should each play 40 minutes per game, and more generally that no player should ever be substituted for another player unless they are a 1:1 replacement talent...

I think we can probably all agree to agree on this point.

It's easy to go position by position and make a talent evaluation and say x is better than y, so x plays and y doesn't, but you can't just play 5 guys 40 minutes each. Cole doesn't have to be as good as Banks and Wright, but he can play the 3/4/5 for 10-20 minutes per game. Bubba doesn't have...

Yep. I'm well aware that we shoot under 30% from 3 as a team.

I agree recruiting needs to improve big time. It looks like we are set to see a step in the right direction next season. On the issue of the depth of the bench, I think the current problem is a Pastner problem as much or more than a talent problem. I don't think CJP will go deeper than 7 on a...

10-4. I wasn’t posting against you. I just wanted to give Jose props.

I’ll take a meeting with Stansbury. How do I get said meeting? Oh..., right.... should have kept reading... probably related to that next part about pledging quite a bit of money. Does buying $40 worth of hotdogs times 20 home games count? Probably not. Never mind.
