    Orange Out vs UNC!

    Eligibility is a flat circle.

    Probably wouldn't have made any difference in the final score.

    Duke Postgame

    There is. Sometimes they get special guests, too, like OBJ's dad, and Buddy Boeheim's dad.

    Duke Postgame

    It's a comical take and sickening at the same time. He just doesn't get it.

    Duke Postgame

    Yes. Every season should start with coaching and drilling fundamentals. This is what it looks like when you dont practice fundamentals because you expect them to know them. Players at any level will sink into bad habits and lazy play if its allowed.

    Cal Postgame

    It doesn't need to be slow. The important factors are good shooting form and a routine.

    Cal Postgame

    Why? Does he dribble on a catch and shoot 3? There is nothing magical about dribbling before shooting a FT. It's just that most everyone learned that way. But, i remember a player in the 80s who just stood upright with the ball for a couple of seconds and taking a deep breath before going...

    Way to early ACC power rankings via CBS sports

    It's predictable. It's the default setting they give us, regardless... It's why I never take ACC pre-season power rankings seriously.

    Which is Worse ???

    Is this supposed to be an excuse for Red Autry in his 3rd season? Balderdash!

    Which is Worse ???

    At this point I'll allow a court storming at the end of the first half, if we have a lead.

    Virginia Postgame

    A team with talented players can be a poor team. A talented team playing as one unit with a purpose is what makes a good team. This team has talented players. They weren't more talented at their last places, they were put in position to show it.

    We need to go back to the big east

    I'm tired of this false narrative. Our recruiting didn't fall off as a result of being in the ACC. We were recruiting against the ACC when we were in the Big East and we did just fine. We pulled guys from Cali, Michigan, Delmarva, Canada going back decades. The problem was NCAA sanctions and...

    Fire Autry

    Plus, how many good coaches were actually really good players? I think i want a coach who isn't best known for his playing days.
  14. dollarbill44

    Fire Autry

    We start over with mostly new players every year regardless who is the coach. What did we have, two guys back from last year? How many the year before? About the same, i think. We shouldn't be retaining coaches merely for the purpose of keeping players.

    I dont know how anyone can watch our games and think there's nothing wrong with the coaching.

    UNC Postgame

    I think you'd have a difficult time proving that too. But, what's a more difficult conference to have a good record in - one with 8 top 25 teams, 11 NCAAat bids and 4 bad teams; or one with 3 top 25 teams, maybe 6 ncaat bids, 9 mediocre teams and 4 bad teams?

    UNC Postgame

    There were seasons in the last 5-6 with SU when the Big East was better top to bottom than the ACC. The 2010-2011 season had 11 Big East teams in the NCAA tourney. Our first two seasons in the ACC were pretty solid. It was the drop-off in talent that turned things, moreso than the competition.

    Kiyan in the NY Post

    As well as the obvious, FT shooting. If his strength is getting to the line, it would behoove him to get his pct up to 80.

    His only hope is to win the ACCT - if he can get in.

    If I win the men's courtside seats, do you think they'll let me swap them for women's courtside seats? It would be more enjoyable.

    Wow, the B1G really has a corner on the market for losingest teams.

    Would you take Mike Hopkins as next coach?

    I don't want our next coach to have any prior connections to SU.

    He's going to get diabetes drinking oj like that. So much sugar.

    OT. Post your pet pic

    This is Gus. The fastest dog I've ever seen. When he gets the zoomies, it is truly something to behold.

    Fire Autry

    Yeah, because he wasn't good. I d9nt want us to hire a coach who is already concerned about getting fired. Most coaches are getting hired because the guy before him got fired.
  27. dollarbill44

    Fire Autry

    His success was entirely up to him. This team has the talent to win. But, while the roster improved, the coaching did not. I think most of us wanted him to grow into a good coach, but the growth is not evident. This team makes all the same mistakes of the past two teams.

    What we took for granted about JB.

    Yeah, Cole Swider was the best player on that team, but he had the wrong last name. Jimmy did a lot of nice things,but he should have been the 6th man.

    The fire drill or the game, or both?

    NC State Postgame

    You're assuming they are teaching. I envision practices are scrimmages and drills where Red is cheer8ng them on and Griffin has an Effort meter like the (fake) crowd decibel meter in the Dome that goes from 1 to 5 and he yells out the readings as they go.

    NC State Postgame

    A good coach could get these guys to play defense. This team doesn't hustle at all. Look at how they move on offense. They just go through the motions with no urgency, no hard cuts, jogging through everything. Same with a lot of them on defense. They dont move their feet with well, they dont...

    I have no problem with that. We had HS wrestling practice at 7:00 a.m. the day after Thanksgiving and Christmas.

    SU at North Carolina (71-77 [OT]): Sun Jan 25, 12 PM

    That was a tough loss. The ladies played with a ton of heart, they just ran out of gas. They seemed tired, even though they were off all week. A lot of front rim misses from 3. They just didn't have anything left for OT. I really wish Darius went with the bounce pass on the in-bound to Uche at...

    Miami Postgame

    Do we even need a coach? There's no evidence they have added any value. Just have AI determine the lineup and subs.

    Probably not, but who cares? Rehashing that decision doesn't change the current reality.

    Something Has To Change..

    For like, one, maybe two years. I think the general interest of non-SEC/B1G fans will go away and the money will actually be less than it is now. I wont have any interest in a superleaugue with no SU. I barely watch other games now, if there's no impact to SU. I got more enjoyment out of the...

    Significant Change Is Coming

    I just expect our mens hoops roster will be completely new every season. It's been close to that the last two years.
