Did you expect us to be better this year? We lost our two best players off of a team that wasn't good. Jose showed promise last year but wasn't really a guy you'd expect to carry a team in the ACC. Devoe is a good player but, again, not someone you'd expect to carry an ACC team as a freshman...
That was a very frustrating game to watch as a fan. The team is obviously frustrated.
This staff needs to figure it out or we need a shake up at the end of the year. Pastner is obviously here a couple more years. He needs a full staff. He is not good on his own. I saw his Memphis teams play a...
Long article about the trials, particularly Gassnola, from Oregon:

Most fans seem to think the primary function of a head coach is as a tactician. This is not correct. The primary function of a head coach is leadership.
Strategy and tactics matter, strategy generally above tactics. Recruiting is important for the obvious point that better players will beat...
+ gazillion to both of these points
The team's record is about what I expected this year, losing Lammers and Okogie and having very little upperclassman talent. The odd rotations are a cause for concern.
A record breaking effort:
"The ACC said it surpassed the previous low mark for a league team set by Georgia Tech in a 57-28 loss to Virginia in January 2015."

I'm not talking about stats. Actually, I would never talk about "scoring" anyway. I'm talking about having a way to start the offense. We used the high post to start the offense and ran cuts off of it last year. It got everyone moving and the ball to change hands.
We didn't have high percentage...
ever is that you have to be able to execute an offense.
We missed some long 3s early but stopped being able to execute a basic offense against a team that isn't very good defensively. Shooting is obviously important but basketball isn't simply shooting.
We have a schematic issue at the moment...
I agree with this. Blaming shooters is like blaming the quarterback. While sometimes it is true, most of the time it is a poor scheme or a poorly taught scheme that makes those things look bad. We are getting into the heart of the season. We should have one set or two we can run fairly well by...
