    ACC Discussion

    I think this 'Zion back to Duke' talk is nothing but sports talk radio 'talking heads' attempting to create a controversy where there is not one. Anyway, Duke could not pay him as much as New Orleans can. Factor in endorsements, he could probably double his salary.

    Coaching Carousel 4 - Hard work pays off in the future, laziness pays off now

    This could also indicate that Cleveland is moving forward with its 'youth movement' and wants a coach that can 'relate' to college age players. Looking at their roster, one would wonder if they will look to dump many of the veterans and attempt to address their salary cap, like the Hawks did.

    Why Pastner is likely to be here at least 5 years

    While your projected 2021-2022 lineup looks strong to us as fans, I wonder how that will be perceived by 2021 recruits. By that I mean, with the exception of the center position, I don't see many opportunities for immediate minutes as we will have 2-4 year starters in the other positions...

    SPRING GAME ROLL CALL

    Made it to the game with my daughter (BME Ph.D. candidate) along with one of her classmates. After sitting down, I realized that was my first time ever in the West Stands to watch a game. Great atmosphere and we had a great time. Kicker was seeing Bobby Cremins and speaking to him as we...

    Transfer from VMI

    Hopefully he can start classes this summer and begin developing chemistry with his new teammates. That will be a key to our success this upcoming season.

    Transfer from VMI

    Based on our last game, I wouldn't be surprised to see us play more man to man defense or at least mix it up more. Parham is on the small side (5'11" and 155lbs from his bio) so perhaps he is a good on ball defender. I hope he is as good as advertised. I really thought Alvarado and Devoe...

    GT Hoops General Topics

    Hopefully this is primarily to get feedback as to what he needs to work on to be a first round pick in 2020. IMO, he wouldn't be a first round pick and may be a mid to lower round pick in the 2nd round if he left this year. I can only hope that his academics aren't part of the reason for him...

    Attrition and Scholarship Limits

    It was Dave Cole, Fred Hall and Steve Neal. Neal was invited back to the team. I remember an article in the AJC with Fred commenting he didn't understand why he was not invited back to the team.

    Haywood transferring

    It would be nice to get contributing transfer in the mold of Brandon Alston, a grad transfer that has two years remaining can can play immediately. At least then CJP could keep balance with his recruiting classes.

    ACC Tournament

    I think the light bulb has gone off in Moses and we will see more consistent play from him next season. Having the starting lineup in yesterday's game play and develop additional chemistry during the offseason will result in a better team. Add Usher and the other players on the team gives us...

    GT @ NCSU

    39 minutes again for Alvarado and Devoe. This does concern me. If not Phillips next season, hopefully we can find a good ball handling guard to given these guys some rest. Given the way guys play now, those kind of minutes are not sustainable over a long season.

    AJC Article - Why Moses Wright may be coming into his own for Georgia Tech

    Pretty good article by Ken Seguira regarding Wright's basketball journey and evolution during this season. https://www.ajc.com/sports/college/why-moses-wright-may-coming-into-his-own-for-georgia-tech/Frp2g6yUvAMk8suue4f2tK/ Here's hoping we continue to see improvement with him and the team...

    GT @ NCSU

    You've been rightly tough on Moses but hopefully you can see the improvements he has made. I believe he is continues to apply himself to improve and focuses on bringing energy around the basket, he will be a good contributor the next two seasons.

    GT @ NCSU

    Will definitely need to work on free throws after running laps. We missed more as they got tired. I recall during the Price years, we shot almost 100% from the FT line in the last 5 minutes of the game.

    55 points can be enough if you can hold them to 54 or less...;)

    BC at GT (-1)

    Given CJPs emphasis on defense, I would think Moore would be the likely candidate with Sjolund coming off the bench.

    Ogbonda, Gueye and Alson are leaving ...

    One would think that Phillips could be that rotational guard, given what he did at TN. Heck, he started at the beginning of this season so CJP obviously saw something in him. If he isn't a part of the rotation next year, it will be imperative to get another ball handling/hawking guard before...

    Ogbonda, Gueye and Alson are leaving ...

    I can agree with that rotation as there is a LOT of length, given CJPs emphasis on defense. With the exception of AD, this now becomes a veteran lineup. Hopefully this 8 can develop more chemistry over the off season and come back even hungrier when the season starts.
