GT is NET 139. BC is 213. Syracuse is 164.

We need to go 2-0 in these games to get a even a bit of breathing room to make sure we have a shot to make the ACCT before we hit the teeth of our schedule and start a likely downturn.

Yeah, I mean need to at least split to just have a bad season and avoid a historically bad/last place in standings type of season.

Yeah. It's a bummer. These games that should be toss ups or close to it we keep losing like GTown, Wake, FSU.

Really need to start nabbing wins. BC isn't good, but they did just beat Miami (even tho Miami isn't good either).

I can't believe this is what we're dealing with, but at least have some pride and make the ACCT. I just cannot fathom ever not making the ACCT being acceptable.

So fingers crossed. I also am hoping JJ firms up a bit more and is a bit more efficient. I'm guessing he's not fully healed and gritting it out to be fair.

And I dont think that will be acceptable but if that happens, it will be an interesting case study for what JW does and whether that was acceptable.

Its easy in Nov to proclaim he's getting a 3rd year but wait and play things out, see how bad they get and by Feb/March are you still guaranteeing that when the noise becomes deafening.

If that happens and you dont move off of him, what message is that sending to your fanbase?

Its Jan and they need to turn the comments off of the Instagram page because its getting so toxic.

We are entering uncharted territory, yeah I heard about the 60s but it was a different time, no extended success, expectations, Dome, and social media, etc.

Axe’s article pretty much sums up how everyone is feeling. He is right on.

Ga Tech has not been as bad as the others, it is a winnable game, but it'll be tough (torvik thinks that this is a pick 'em with GTech slightly favored).

BC on the road is another that could be a win, but playing in Chestnut Hill will be make it a little more difficult and BC can hit open threes. (Torvik has BC favored by 2).

Yup, I like that he called out this ambiguous "Orange Standard".

That's also now two articles where he mentions Devo's "you have no clue" call out during the game. I echo what Axe mentioned, as a fan, even getting tidbits from the insider's here on this board, I have no idea what Devo is referencing behind the scenes when he said that on air, but it came off as condescending when he said it and Axe's articles further broadcasts that message to the masses who may have not heard it live. Really not a good look. Reminded me when someone told LeBron to "shut up and dribble" like I have no business voicing an opinion on the state of Syracuse basketball because I don't have all the information.

I have two eyes and have watched every game this year so far. Sure, I have no clue what's going on behind the scenes, but I can see what I'm watching on the court is awful.

Even if there is dysfunction behind the scenes, that ultimately still lands at the feet of the HC right or wrong.

 

[DilemaCuse]

What do you think Devo was referring to?

In fighting between players? A certain player and coach? NIL disputes?

Anybody in the know, actually know?

I'd wager that its nothing that crazy. I think it's the AD circling the wagons. If they can't defend the actual visible product, they have to come up with something nebulous and secret.

Every college is dealing with roster turnover and NIL.

He talked about all that on his last podcast and, to give him credit, he did it with as much grace as someone who disagreed with Devo could.

He also mentioned that apparently we have only led after the first TV timeout one time in all of our games this season, which is pretty wild.
