Tomorrow will be our first evening game in DC since the 2013 Sweet 16 against Indiana.

might be good that Syracuse missed the 5, ND is looking scary efficient.

Micah Shrewsberry is proving to be a really good coach. If we went with an outside hire, he was near the top of my list.

I agree with you to a degree, I do think Micah is solid and will make them a solid (not great) program, but it’s funny.

If Red went 12-19, peoples hair would be on fire here

Here comes Tech...

 

[OrangeXtreme]

ND 84, GT 80

ND 84, GT 80

Tough way for Tech to lose. Two straight turnovers, one looked unforced. Huge comeback and really should have won. Not sure how Stoudemire was so cordial in the handshake line. I would be pretty pissed. I guess that's why I don't coach.

I think about this every time I see a coach who just lost an excruciating game being cordial just moments later - I would not be able to

Shrewsberry also lost almost the entire roster and returned nearly zero from last season: "2.4% of minutes played and 1.6% of scoring return from 2022-23 roster". He had to start from scratch at a new school. How they finished is impressive.

Syracuse returned 3/4s of the coaching staff and only lost two guys who played regular minutes and the staff would have been happy if they had returned.

All that may be true (and is)

I still stand by my comment.

If we went 12-19, people would be freaking out not saying "how they finished is impressive"

So who do we want here? A hobbled NC State or a nothing left to play for Louisville?

 

[hoopsupstate]

What’s wrong with JD Horne?

We want the team that has won 8 games all season…

 

[djcon57]

What’s wrong with JD Horne?

Hurt his hip vs Pitt

 

[djcon57]

If you are under the assumption we need to win the whole thing, we prob want LVille

 

[rocfan44]

Well we know how DJ spends his NIL money.

 

[Orangello]

Louisville shooting 74% from the field. What?

 

[23Zone]

I'd rather play NC State minus horne than Louisville with their size advantage and rebounding fervor

 

[Cusean]

NC State would give us another Quad 2 win. If we only make the championship game, we’d be sitting at:

Quad 1: 4-8
Quad 2: 5-2
Quad 3: 9-1
Quad 4: 4-0

NET: Somewhere in the 60s probably, who knows.

Overall: 22-12

Might be enough to get in.

Louisville gives us nothing but a Quad 4 win. If we need to win it all, that would be fine though.

We want a 6 overtime game on the anniversary of the 6 overtime game

Overall: 22-11

Louisville gives us nothing but a Quad 4 win. If we need to win it all, that would be fine though.

We ain’t dancing without winning the ACC tournament. No chance

 

[djorange1989]

Both Louisville and NC State stink and both apparently have lame duck coaches. In other words, we are pretty lame if we lose to either one of them tomorrow

Maybe but beating Duke and then(if seed holds) UVA could get us in. Just don’t see that happening anyway but it’s fun to talk about
