Post Game Notre Dame

[Red2003]

This is what we've come to? Good win by the boys but it was against a bottom 4 team in the ACC.. This is Syracuse hoops, once upon a time the players would have been mad they had to come back and win against a sub par team like that. Its one of the wins they should act like they been there before and not act like they just won the conference tourney.

Didn’t the Tarheels lose to Stanford at home today.

 

[CnyTarheel]

Geez. One of the biggest comeback victories ever after getting blown out and you're pissed that they are excited. Seriously

Yep your right.. guess they should start making the t-shirts about this win..lol. bro they have been down like this and come back to win many times.. not pissed, just pointing out how far our expectations have fallen.. I'm only 50 but I've seen them come back from 16-20 pts many times..

Yes they did.. and I told all my friends after we watched it that I believe 'Cuse can beat them. And that was when the Irish were up 15..lol

Dude it's Instagram, they post everything, part of the gig.

Who do you not see in that pic? Gee wonder where Bell is?

Westry right in front.

I know. Just said good teams act like they've been there before and get back to work. Yes feel good about the win but dam, don't act like ya just won the Acc tourney.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Maybe he took the picture.

 

[GoSU96]

Today felt like a pyhrric victory.

It’s a victory. No need to denigrate it.

Did you ever find out what happened to Haynes?

I get your point. I don't mind the players celebrating, maybe they build a bond to help the rest of the season. I thought they handled their reactions fine on the court at the buzzer. I'm more interested in how the coaches treat this win? And more importantly JW and admins. Like this doesn't make things all good, I still see a lot of red flags

Agree 100%.. I hope Red said after the picture boys good win but now it's over and it's onto Clemson and let's get to 4-4 in the conference.

I liked the lineup that ended the game. Some of the guys in the bench look checked out. At one point Engelstad had to implore a few guys to get in the huddle. Chris Bell was one of those guys.

When I noticed Bell on the bench, he was celebrating, definitely not checked out.

I mean we are now a middle conference team. Albeit in a 2nd tier league in performance this season, but I guess things could be worse. If we finish decently we can finish in the exact position as last season maybe not overall record but in the conference record.

 

[Oakland]

With one of those assists being a spectacular behind-the-back pass to Davis. And despite not showing up in the box score, we would be remiss not to mention the energy and emotion he brought all game long -- it definitely rubbed off on his teammates.

And he doesn't play like he is out of shape - maybe the back is better.

 

[Oakland]

I can only imagine the tenor of the game thread during the first 10 min of the game.

 

[JeffCuse]

It’s a victory. No need to denigrate it.

lower leg injury

 

[Oakland]

A few points:

Starling apparently has no left hand, despite what the announcer of the Lvlle game said.

ND was credited with only 3 assists, the lowest number I can recall.

Devo needs to cut down on the use of the word 'aggressive'.

Or we sit here and bitch because we won?

I made the mistake of clicking on Axe's post game show tweet. Holy hell. You would have thought Cuse lost by 40.

 

[Sherman20]

I know Eddie isn’t Shaq like we paid him to be, but he had 13 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 blocks, 2 steals, 1 foul and 0 turnovers.

Love all of it, but especially his rebounding, 4 assists, 0 turnovers (!!). And even 3 blocks! What?!

 

[NoDakOrange]

“If they want to boo,’’ Starling said, “don’t come to the next game.’’

My brother in Christ, you won’t have anyone in the stands. Your team STINKS. You’re lucky those people had nothing else to do on a Saturday afternoon. Don’t talk to the fans that way when your squad goes 62% from the free throw line. These guys are something else. Play better and you won’t get (rightfully) boo’d

 

[STEVEHOLT]

Great come back!

Cuffe 10 for 10 from the line! The rest of the team needs to put in more time working on their free throws.

They could spend a 1000 years shooting them and yet once in a game it’s completely different. None of these guys struggle with FT because of lack of reps

I don’t boo college players or below for poor performance unless it’s an obvious lack of trying . But feel free if it floats your boat
