Don’t deserve to win this game. Far too many mistakes, missed opportunities.

I’m reading play by play on my phone and having a hard time making sense of it.

Anderson
Why is Anderson not in at the end of the game down two?
Rebounding
We can just not rebound…ever heard of boxing out?
That was disappointing. The progress that was showing a few games ago did not show at all today.

Crushed on the glass. Far too many turnovers. Sent Rhody to the line all afternoon.
Miserable game.

Bring on UNC
This team is really bad. How can you lose to a 2-12 team that shoots under 30%. Possible they may not win an ACC game…only thing in their favor is that the ACC outside of UNC and Duke is average at best. May they rest in peace.
Five Freshman played +35 minutes
I mean this is gonna take some time.
The program cupboard was not bare…..it was left destroyed by lazy Elvis.

The program cupboard was not bare, but Gene blew it up because he wanted Skinner gone. You can’t fire Skinner if he makes the NCAA Tournament last season.
Starting a freshman five, you certainly need patience. But the program cupboard didn’t have to be this bare. That’s on Gene, not the Don.
