FSU Postgame Thoughts

Red got worked tonight

Red got worked by the last coach leaving him with a talent hole to dig out of

Red got worked tonight

He did but the roster is so limited athletic wise, skill wise, and frankly will wise, tough task.

 

[JeremyCuse]

Coaching, athleticism…

Shooting, this team lost multuple games because it can't shoot a kick. 1 of 14 from 3, untold missed fts etc, getting absolutely nothing from the PF spot scoring wise etc. Hard to win with 1 3pt shooter on the roster

 

[EnviroSciGuy]

The cope is strong.

I hope he stays.

 

[HakAttack]

Read the post above yours, for starters.

I had to put the kids to bed so I missed 80% of the game but to me it seems like this was more on the players, no?

 

[Irt4su]

This loss was not on Red

 

[capeorange]

8 and 9 seconds to cross mid court and almost no passing didn't work out too well.
7 assists for the team. I'm not sure if we had any in the second half.
Soft.

Devil’s Advocate: If not for that talent hole, Red wouldn’t be a HC right now

I said at halftime it was surprising were up 1 with the way we were playing. Hard to win when you have 3 players come close to playing close to their potential -- Mintz, Brown and Williams, yes Williams -- missed 2 follows but had 8 rebounds and 2 assists, both of which were second high on the team. He has to start over Taylor, who once again was a huge minus on the court. Maybe if Williams gets into the game at the start he will play up to his potential. Taylor certainly has not.

Not really. There’s not much he could’ve done differently. Maybe make sure they guard the 3pt shooter when we went zone, which we didn’t do and he nailed the 3. Game over at that point. But not many levers to be pulled.

If only there was a portal full of players that could be used to get more talent. I think FSU had a couple of those

Red should have had the talk with more players on the team and hit the portal hard like Fran did.

 

[realorange]

Childress was right early in the second half when he said FSU had enough subs to wear us out. And they did.
And when you don't have shooters, you let your guards try to do something and they couldn't keep up the pace.

It's a joke that some are ready to throw Red to the curb again. He got very little from his bench and not much more from two of his starters.

 

[Cusefan0307]

The games Starling and Copeland play well we will win. If they dont score for us we can’t win.

Complete BS. He recruited these guys as the lead recruiter and brought in 4 transfers who’ve done next to nothing. He’s accountable whether u like it or not. He’s also been coaching them for 5 months. Accountability is tough sometimes

FSU was taller, quicker, stronger. Pretty good players too. And their team has an identity at both ends of the court.
Every time our players went to shoot, someone 6"s taller was guarding them.
They ran us into the ground.
Seems to me like we could have gone to the rim more often, but Judah was gassed.
We were up 7, until we weren't.
our last gasp w 7 mins left, only down 5 and we stopped scoring and got 0 stops.

 

[Sbucketball]

Idk who’s fault, but that was gross. FSU looked like a tall JV team. Worst game I’ve watched in a long time. This team just shot itself in the foot. The pattern of giving up is unreal.

Let’s see what he does in offseason to change that. Early rumors are “not much.” Hope that changes.

We looked like we have never practiced a press break before and the half court offense was a my turn, your turn for the majority of the second half. I don't expect us to run some intricate chit non-stop like Yukon or Purdue does but it seemed like once they started to get disruptive in 2H we just threw our hands up and asked Judah and JJ to create off the bounce every possession.

The loss is not at all solely on Red, and the guys on the court quit around the under 4, but this was the first time this season where I thought he flat out got out-coached. It happens and he will learn from it. Just tough timing coming off a big win and trying to get momentum to sneak into the tourney.

 

[JimBoston]

7 assists, 16 turnovers. Ouch.

 

[Fly Rodder]

8 and 9 seconds to cross mid court and almost no passing didn't work out too well

That was just horrid ball movement.

 

[DoctorBombay]

I’m mad that I got sucked back in.

Good recap. Thanks.

You’re hearing he’s not going to have much roster movement?

It was a very physical game. We got ground down. You could probably argue some guys didn't show up. Some didn't, like Q & Taylor. Others were doing OK, but kept missing easy tap ins, like Benny. We just couldn't match their intensity, but for 28 minutes, & folded.
