LOUISVILLE 2/1/23 GAME THREAD

[PearidgeRambler]

He should wear the face shield tonight!

was thinking a paper bag is in order. Go Jackets!

 

[CINCYMETJACKET]

Wiley on the call in place of Andy. If we win, and that's a BIG IF, I say Wiley calls every game!

 

[Northeast Stinger]

You do realize that all the bad karma is because he failed to keep his promise to braid his hair (or whatever hair style was promised) if the players won the ACC 2 years ago?

It’s not crazy if it works

Smith will not be playing, ankle injury

Smith will not be playing, ankle injury

How long is he out now?

 

[JDjacket]

If we lose to a 2 win team we better USC/ASU this.

 

[awbuzz]

Well, at least it was a 7pm game and it isn't too late into the night.

... ... Cheerful words are hard to come by at this low point in the season...

In the locker room, fired. CJS can coach this team and possibly close the deal on the recruits he worked so hard to get interested.

You’re joking or is he really gone?

 

[awbuzz]

Because this game's on the road, I doubt if Batt would do it tonight.

 

[Peacone36]

Of course he’s not. He just “won” an ACC title for the first time in like a billion years. He’s probably got 6 years left at this bat**** school

 

[Northeast Stinger]

I really thought we would lose but a 10 point loss where we never seemed in it is tough. To Louisville, no less.

Someone prove to me that this team hasn’t given up. Not blaming the players, just saying there’s nothing left in the tank. Am I wrong?

 

[majorQ9]

Tonight was a must win for Pastner and the end result was a 10 point loss to previously winless team. Tells you all you need to know

 

[jbix80]

I asked this question on Twitter as well. What loss is more embarrassing…Duke at home by 43 or Louisville on the road by 10? I’m going with tonight’s game. Both are totally unacceptable.

Need moar get old stay old mang.

We’re 1-11 in conference, losing 8 in a row. 8-14 overall, and I am wondering how many wins we actually get.

Haslametrics has this season graph, and we’re trending down all year—it’s not the chart I’d have expected with Pastner—he usually starts out absolutely terrible, but gets better. This year has been downhill all year. If it were an ICU, the doctor would be “calling it” right now, or at least using the paddles a lot.

 

[MWBATL]

Is this our first year without Reveno on the bench?

Just saying our coaching staff seems ludicrous....but Reveno seemed to be pretty good.

 

[mstranahan]

It gets better. Next game is at NC State. They are currently demolishing FSU 44-14 in the first half. We may not score in the first half.

there are three games left that look like reasonable chances to win. ND, Florida Tech and Louisville, all at home. Other games look like probable losses unless something radical changes

I've been critical of the staff all year. A lot of scouting and recruiting is done by the staff. Reveno was a big loss.
