GT vs FSU - 3/2/2024 (GAME THREAD)

[Ramble1885]

Senior Day. Last home game. (AND IF YOU LOOK AT OUR REMAINING SCHEDULE WE GO TO WF AND UVA AFTER THIS SO IT IS LIKELY OUR LAST WINNABLE GAME) Kyle's McCamish farewell. We play the Seminoles who Kyle knows a thing or two about, as he is the last remaining player from the '21 squad who knocked off FSU in the ACC title game. However, many things have changed since then. FSU is not what they were three years ago, neither are we. We met once before in Tally, FSU won by 11. Now they come up to McCamish. Should be an interesting game!

I'm sure there are tickets you can buy (the game isn't sold out). Unless you are one of those guys that will only go if it's free.

The crowd is gonna be live today. There’s not many tickets left through GT or any of the secondary markets.

We usually play well when the ThrillerDome is activated. I think GT wins a close one today.

Really happy for Sturdivant to get a good win and have a terrific game on his senior day. Looked like a good crowd on TV.

Nice win today!! This has been a long season, but I'm really glad the team is still playing hard and together.

 

[MWBATL]

Encouraging performance. I think this team heard CDS after that Clemson loss.

 

[GTNavyNuke]

I watched on and off. This team is so much more athletic than previous years. Make some fabulous plays but throwing away the ball too much. And in-bounding is an adventure.

In any event a great win.

Great win. Claude was a man on the glass today. Happy for Studivant. Gapare will be a really good player if he gets a 3 pt shot.

Great win for everyone. Especially Sturdivant, Claude & CDS. And so nice with the white haired guy in the house for the first time this season watching a home game on his namesake court.

Great ambassador for GT

He was never the star at Tech and many on the Swarm questioned why he was playing at all. But he has finished strong, has his GT diploma, and will be remembered by most of us a key guy in whatever success we enjoyed these past few seasons. I loved seeing him get 20 today.

 

[OG-T]

Kyle had half of our 3s; OTOH, Miles shoots 2 for 13 and we STILL we win by double digits!; that's not usually a winning formula. We DOMINATED the boards. Great to see guys play their roles. Gapare's skill set is tantalizing — there are flashes where you see him and think in a couple years, he's a pro; but then he gets balls stolen or misses two footers, and you think the highest levels are too physical for him — his hands are just SO weak. HOWEVER, I'm VERY glad he's in this program, because he has amazing potential; I think it will be fulfilled. Florida St is not great this year, but this win had a very nice feel to it, hope this game travels for next two and ACCT.
Congrats to Kyle, player of the game, and a player that is so easy to pull for. Accepted back up role, and thrived on it, glad for him, wish his pops could been in the 'Dome to see that.

Nice complete game. 17 assists on 30 baskets is pretty good again. Sturdy had a nice senior night. I know we can’t do anything about the past, but losing to BC, ND (2x), and Louisville is really annoying and frustrating. We have played and beaten the top and middle of the conference well, but the bottom has given us too many losses. Looking forward to what we continue to see from Nait and Baye. Let’s finish well and make some noise in the ACC tourney.

 

[Ramblingon]

The way we wish they had been playing all season. Even with Kelly off they rallied and learned how to hang on at the end. Looks like they made good adjustments at halftime. Congrats seniors!

 

[KeystoneJacket]

Gapare with some more tantalizing plays today. Another great bounce pass for a dunk and some crazy blocks. Still needs to tighten up his handle, or just not put it on the deck, and improve his shooting, but sky feels like the limit for him.

 

[ESPNjacket]

That was the type of effort Stoudamire has been looking for. Everybody played hard all game.

I thought Claude’s effort was noticeable and significant. He does not have the hops or size that the FSU guys did but he fought like heck and made a couple of great saves on balls going out of bounds.

Ndongo with a monster game as well
14 rebounds and 15 points
