    Hawaii Diamond Head Classic

    That is the one day without a game. Funny. You should bet on us to lose. ;) Today's game is the second of two at the tournament in a session, like at the ACC tournament. Both of the games are on the U. The game will start about 20 minutes after the first game, so close to 5:30.

    I'm not sure having the point guard back can fix what you describe. I try to stay positive as a fan. It is really hard right now.

    Coaching Carousel 5 - You have to look through the rain to see the rainbow

    If the real problem is the players can't stand to listen to Coach Corny's repetitive cliches then anyone would be an improvement. I don't know if that is the root cause but that is my best guess. They look at the fake smile with disdain.

    Ball State game.

    I would call it perfect analysis. If I knew Coach Corny would abandon what we have done well on offense to this point and double down on what we have done poorly I would have added "but instead of avoiding turnovers we will go to a perimeter-oriented 4 out offense despite being horrible at that."

    Ball State game.

    Kenpom has GT by 6. Ball State hasn't played anyone in the top 100 (GT is 94). Ball State takes a ton of 3s (47.1% of their FG attempts, 19th nationally). The key to the game for GT is limiting turnovers. GT is a horrible #316th in turnover percentage on offense. We all know the cause but...

    It's all in the delivery. Aww, shucks.

    Sjolund to (not) transfer

    I am not quite seeing the problem here. Unless he was suddenly get a quickness injection he'll never play defense at an acceptable level. At most he was an off the bench designated shooter. Now if Coach Corny can use that scholarship on someone better, we are better off in the long run.

    He likes reading numbers but has no idea what they mean. This guy is a short bus rider. He is a terrible match for GT.

    This is playing out like Sasquatch. He doesn't like us and we don't like him. He was fortunate when he bragged about his prowess as a student at Arizona in Family Studies that most of our alumni weren't watching. We need to do a better job identifying people who fit here. We are weird. Embrace it.

    It isn't on Moses at all. It is on the coach. The team's effort was weak all around but the team wasn't prepared by the coach.

    Game Thread - Syracuse, 12/7

    I think Moses is a pretty good choice for the high post if he was actually taught how to play there. The high post guy should only dribble the ball if he has a path to the hoop or a quick bounce to the 12 foot shot. It doesn't appear the coaching part has happened. He is much better suited to...

    That effort was sad. Starting saving for the buyout.

    College basketball is not important in November and early December. I'd prefer if they started playing in mid-December.
