Havent been able to keep up with the Cuse as much this season so looking for a good podcast to listen to about the team. TIA
 
Picture a burning dumpster of kittens careening downhill at 80mph toward a dozen barrels of kerosene that are somehow radioactive and next to grandma’s house, with no apparent way to stop the impending doom.

Just consistently picture that in your mind and you can save yourself the agony of listening to a podcast about this team.
 
You aren't missing much. Here's the summary.
  • Jalen Carey became perturbed about lack of playing time and made up a thumb injury. Out for the year but amazingly he played the most effective defense last game and even got a technical.
  • Marek gained no weight over the summer and has lost 10lbs since the season started. Averaging almost a foul a minute. However, has cut back to one pack of smokes every two days.
  • Sidibe's knee feels better but still is scrawny and falls over a lot. Leading rebounder by default.
  • Buddy averaging 15 points a game but criticized endlessly. Took a speed & agility class over the summer, led by local tortoise.
  • Girard brings fire and intensity to the lineup, even talked smack to 28 year old Penn State big guy with awesome mustache. Unfortunately, he didn't grow over his senior year of high school summer and struggling a bit on defense and with turnovers.
  • Hughes has been dynamic with improved handle and passing. Unfortunately still seems to take nap at halftime and loses the juice.
  • Jesse Edwards has been positive in limited minutes. He's tall, catches the ball and moves well. However, burdened with the biceps of a young schoolgirl.
  • Quincy struggling to adapt to college game. Has physical tools but accumulates fouls faster than Marek. Wears really nice sneaks!
  • Goodine has fallen into the doghouse. He's not played exceptionally well but not sure why he's clocking so very little time. Offers size and athleticism at guard spot with not much else just yet. Needs to develop.
  • Howard Washington: combined with Carey's injury and Goodine's struggles has moved up the 3rd guard. Looks like he shares similar diet as Marek, Sidibe and Edwards. Rail thin but active on defense and offers some stability at the point.
  • Braswell: super limited minutes and impact. Hasn't been given a chance but not sure if he has done anything to earn time. Type of player that could put up some stats with minutes but he's not going to have that chance behind Hughes, Marek and Quincy.
  • Coach B: Grumpy and appears resigned to fact this isn't one of his strongest squads. Snarky about length of leashes and opening with a tough ACC game.
  • Fans: Broken, sad and angry but still passionate. Forum topics range from the program in free fall, Buddy playing too much; pining for Hopkins to insulting our recruiting performance. A few die-hards remain who hold out hope.
Cuse!
