Embarrassed Shame GIF
 
Duke hasn’t scored 100 since November against Niagara.

What a complete embarrassment on national television.

Thanks a lot Red. Thanks a lot Wildhack for allowing this to continue.
People are inevitably going to complain about talent and NIL, but SMU, Clemson, VT, Georgia Tech and BC all didn’t get boat raced like this in Cameron. A big problem with Red is his teams don’t play hard enough and they quit when it gets hard.
 
That was a disaster.
You are being too kind. I doubt anyone was seriously expecting a victory but keeping it close to the spread would have been nice. Duke shot maybe 80% in the second half. Will be interesting to see what happens against NC.
 
Look, Red is gone. He’s an alum and former assistant and they don’t want to embarrass him. There’s been much discussion about the pros and cons of letting him go before the end of the season. We just came off a beating and it takes an emotional toll. But, I really do think you need to consider firing him now. The program needs to show some pride. We have to make a statement that this once proud program will not stand for this anymore. It has to be considered. It just has to be. I don’t see how you wait for the inevitable ACC tournament loss. At this point, messaging is more important than whatever happens these last weeks of the season. The message should be about seeking greatness not accepting complete mediocrity or worse.
 
Just a complete disgrace. No other way to put it.
- As I said in the game thread, Kiyan jogging to the ball and getting beat by a guy who is sliding up by 30 is all you have to know about these two programs. I’m not just picking on him. It’s symptomatic of the two cultures.
-Donnie was absolutely atrocious. He should watch a video of this game and watch how Kyle played compared to how he played.
-i’m just so tired of JJ. He was clearly trying to get his in the second half. In what world should he take 13 shots and Kingz should take nine.
-I don’t know what was worse, watching uncontested dunks in the second half by Duke or watching us go one on one on the offensive end. This was a complete embarrassment. I didn’t think this season could bother me again, but this was beyond what I imagined we could see tonight.
-however, it would be unfair to lump Kyle in with the rest of the team tonight. Again, as I said the game thread, I wish we had him for more than one season. He gave it everything he had tonight. Nobody else did, including the coaches. Duke is obviously in a significantly different league but the lineup that Red had in the first half when the game was close was like spotting Duke another 10 points.

Yup. Duke beat us worse than any ACC team they’ve played. The usual suspects will say (in private threads) that it’s NIL and that “the board” is stupid. But they’re wrong.

Red is worse than Greg Robinson. Way worse.
