Maryland Postgame Analysis

Hold up we had a game today?

I genuinely struggling to hold the tension that it's likely Red will be coaching next year for sure? Absolutely disconcerting & deflating... whether it's finances, recruiting class or whatever else, the fact that we could be so bound by those factors so we can't make a coaching changes doesn't compute.
 
The only good, which doesn't even matter because Maryland kinda packed it in anyway, but Donnie and Moore had 31 combined.

Everything else, and I mean everything else, was terrible.

School wants/needs to keep Red another year, good luck. Because this is a mess and our recruiting class ain't saving anything.

JJ coming back won't save us. He was here for our initial games and he isn't as good as they are making it out to be.

Chris Bell looks like he wants no part of playing basketball. JC is a joke at this level. Eddie has always been out of shape and injured.

Red looks like he's out of his depth. This team has no identity on either side.

As I said in the game thread, this is easily the worst Cuse team in my lifetime. And that's saying something.
 
Red after the game: "We got our asses kicked. We just didn't show up. Sorry for my language but we got our asses kicked."

Fortunately didn't have to watch any of the teams that lost 26 in a row, just listened on the radio.
 
This game, and the first half in particular, was the lowest of the lows and that includes the infamous DePaul game. For all the horrible games and indignities we have suffered over the past 5 to 7 years, I can’t think of any worse than this one.
The season was toast before it started when the staff missed on the talent evaluations of the guys we brought in from the portal. None of these guys can play.
For the second game in a row, our overweight, often injured center played over 30 minutes. Carlos played 40 minutes despite the fact that he can’t score or run an offense. Our best player, Donnie Freeman, Red apparently believes is not in condition to play Lampkin minutes so he played only 26. There is no excuse for these minutes distributions. None of them make sense.
The roster construction is a disgrace. We have nothing with respect to rim protection. Red is fond of saying that Carlos is the only one who can play the point and if that is the case not only did he miss on Carlos, but he should’ve had another point guard on the roster because anyone who watched JJ last year knows he is not a pure point guard.
This season is over. We just don’t have the talent or coaching to get better. So we should dedicate the rest of the season to improving the players we want to attempt to retain. Donnie and Choppa must play huge minutes.
I love Syracuse basketball and I don’t miss games. And I will continue to watch. But good Lord something has to change. For those of us who truly care about and love this program, this is just too much to bear.
