Refs not doing us any favors. Hard to see some of the Tech TOs and fouls on TV, but the replays have shown some bad calls. Not terribly biased, but with a more evenly called game we might have a 5 or 6 point lead at half.

I agree with this. I counted 4 or 5 flushes or layups missed in the first half. We were fouled on some of the missed dunks, but nothing called. The refs called a lot of fouls on VCU, but they did not call a bunch of others.

From everything I read, Richt is a very upstanding, religious man. I cannot imagine him putting the claps on S. Florida as a recruiter (TIC).

I agree that Adam Smith was huge for us last night. When he is on, we are a much different team on offense. The "long scoring drought" in this game was different, I think. At the beginning of the game we missed 12 out of 13 shots. Several were point blank, under the basket tries by Nick and...

Bookmakers have GT opening at -5. Thought it might be higher. Now up to GT -8.5. As others have mentioned, Wofford may be a tough game for us.

We are in Charlottesville at the team hotel. The word is that AJ and Shamire were very close to fully recovered and were almost cleared to play at UVA. But not quite.

Six shots ahead of sixth place and almost home. If they don't start swinging like I do, we should go to nationals!

Duke beat Wake 8 - 1. I think that means we back into the ACC Tourney even with another blowout loss to Miami.

This is what they told me at Pike's a few weeks ago. They also said that the stuff will dry up and die on its own when it gets hot and humid. Of course by then (already in fact) the seeds are disbursed leading to more problems in years to come. You can use Roundup, but that kills everything...

I am definitely no expert, but two observations in answer to your question. First, to my untrained eye he is gradually getting his timing back. At first there were a lot of swings and misses, then foul balls, and now he is putting it in play. Still out, but contact is better. Second, he...

This is great news, but it adds to our recruiting "bubble" after next season. With Smith we will now lose five (MGH, Stephens, Mitchell and Bolden). Maybe Bolden is gone anyway, but that is still a lot of spots to fill, especially if CBG remains on shaky ground.

That's it. Great comeback against VT ace!

I have been reading these threads in recent weeks, and I think I understand a lot of the angst you are all expressing. I have been reluctant to post anything, and what I am about to type will probably not be very popular. But here goes. Many have expressed that CBG is a "nice guy", and he is...

Maybe, but I don't think Harrell has nearly the same skills. Repeatedly he shuffled his feet during tonight's game. And his low post defense was to grab and hack. The officials were too intimidated to call him, but that is what happened. I will be surprised if he goes on the first few rounds...

As a season ticket holder, I have to say I am very tired of watching this same movie over, and over, and over again. I really like CBG, but his game management actions leave me scratching my head. I am proud of our guys who keep trying in spite of everything.

I think you also left off Josh Heath from the Tech roster.

Another thing that I noticed during the game is that our guys, especially Cox, were focused on making Thomas try to score with his right hand. And he could not. He got very frustrated, and was so ineffective that Manning pulled him late in the game. Good scouting and good defensive post play...

I was there today (again) and I think we looked a lot better. Outside shots were falling (even though we must have missed a half dozen from point blank range). As mentioned above, Wake could not hit a thing early, and that helped us build a lead and kept the pressure off. The crowd was a...

Me too!

Red, What do you think of Cox so far this year? I probably expected too much based on watching him against us last year in NYC, and he has shown good tough rebounding and occasional flashes of fairly smooth offense. But when our opponents smother him underneath the offensive board, he often...
