@CuseJacket you ok there bud?
That kind of hurt but I'm over it after thinking we lost 2 or 3 different times. After that start the Orange deserved it. If you told me White and Gillon would shoot a combined 10 for 35, with Battle still going thru the flu, I'd say there's no way we'd win it, so I guess it could've been worse.@CuseJacket you ok there bud?
Probably bust. Report I heard is that last two coaching searches they were turned down by their top 10 choices. Candidates either don't want to deal with UNC and Duke in their backyard, see how crazy and impatient their fans are or are already making big money in an easier situation.Good game at the Carrier Dome. L'ville's poor FT shooting really helped Syracuse stay in it.
Syracuse likely needs to win 3 of their final 4 to feel comfortable about a bid - 2 against GT, home against Duke and at L'ville.
Also, Channel 11 in Raleigh reported tonight that sources told them Gottfried would be let go at the end of the season and NCST has reached out to Archie Miller.
Not surprisingly NC ST did not care for this and responded
"Mark Gottfried remains our head coach and we are focused on our next opponent. To suggest we have reached out to any other coach is both incorrect and blatantly irresposible".
Note that the response says nothing about whether he will be the coach after the season, just that he is the HC now.
If he is released it is going to be Miller or bust for them.
Cuse had a nice chance in OT to tie, but could not convert. They will be a tough out for us in both games.Good game tonight between L'ville and Syracuse. L'ville jumped out early with hot 3-pt shooting but Syracusehas clawed back in with an 8-0 run before halftime.
In other news, Chris Clarke at VT tore his ACL last night and is done for the season. That's a significant hit for VT. Good for them getting that win last night as their finishing schedule is quite tough.
Really sucks for VPI. Clarke is a stud and the glue of that team. They're going to struggle to go far without him. Hate to see kids with ACL and / or MCL tears. Even with advances in treatment, those can be career changing
Some of them seem to think Archie is waiting to see if OhioSt comes open.
That'd be fitting for that self-loathing fanbase. Reading their board, I almost feel sorry for them.
I bet he'd take that job in a heart beat
