JB's "motion" offense increasingly became an "isolation" offense the last few years.

The success of the 2-3 in forcing turnovers and frequent transition possessions carried us for a few years, but his coaching decisions in general became increasingly questionable as time went on.

Eventually it was hard to watch. I was turning off games before they were over as soon as you can say "yet another Howard/Chukwu pick and roll 35 ft from the basket."

Our last good team was 2013-2014, our first year in the ACC. Led by CJ Fair and Tyler Ennis, that squad had 6 top50 players on it. And even that team had a disappointing second half, stumbling to 7-5 record to finish the season and losing to Dayton in the second round after an earlier number 1 ranking and a 25-0 start.

Our last acceptable performance came in the 2020-2021 season, but we had to play our way into the NCAA tournament by winning a couple in the ACC tournament, before making a mini run to the Sweet 16.
