Postgame Thoughts... Duke

[two3zone]

Seems like he wants Quincy and Allen to leave.

Gotta make room for Jimmy.

 

[richmondcuse03]

I get motivation and all that...but that’s a pretty strong comment against them when we’ve seen plenty of guys dog it on D this year and try to score without comment

Yup. One of the stronger comments he’s made. Up there with the dead guy rebounding one. Though at least that didn’t question someone’s effort - just talent.

Where is the voice of reason here.. and honestly for Jim's own benefit?

Seems like he wants Quincy and Allen to leave.

Not sure about that. Obviously, let's hope our guys respond and we close this season with an unexpected 3 game win streak heading into the ACCT.

Bilas brought race into his take on that Bald man on campus show.

JB shouldn’t be talking about Johnson but Bilas owes JB a correction.

I don't think that part was directed at Boeheim. JB never mentioned a "camp" "posse" or "people in his ear". Bilas could have done a better job at saying that part of his opinion was not directed at Boeheim, but I didn't get the impression that it was.

I hope he doesn’t but comments like that don’t help. I fear a total collapse coming on ala 2002.

 

[CuseCPT]

The Johnson take just went on far too long on the air. Don’t care really if he agreed or disagreed with the decision, or the comments, whatever. Just dragged so long.

Did a media person say to Jim that Jay commented on his Johnson take?

And yes Bilas is always defending Jim’s wins. He hates the ncaa.

To be fair, there wasn't much going on the court that was too exciting.

How many times has he said something like, “we’re not going to be good on defense, we gotta outscore teams” ?

 

[FRANKIEFAN]

We still have a decent record. Beat GT and we are in solid shape.

Tonight Duke played their best.

JB is a great coach for his career but this season has been abysmal. I don't think its an age thing either the guy is just making the wrong decision in nearly all facets.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

Media people gotta love this though...seriously JB is the gift that keeps giving with all these takes. Its crazy he doesn't know how to handle this by now with all his experience. He's talked about more on a national stage because of the things that come out of his mouth then his actual team and his coaching.

He’s far too comfortable in his position. When you have no fear of getting fired, you say exactly what’s on your mind.

I think Dasher's right, anyone looking for the admin to step in is gonna be disappointed. Wildhack is trying to figure out the fball team the bball team and now the lax team after that Dumpster fire yesterday. Personally I get the feeling JB wouldn't exactly take kindly to any public comments from John and I am a Wildhack fan. The chancellor probably has no idea what's happening and everytime we do hear from him he's apologizing for something or announcing some new inclusive plan or program.

 

[FrancoPizza]

We should just accept it.

As Bobby knight once said, we fans should just bend over and enjoy it, right?

 

[rocfan44]

Does one of those guys play 37 minutes a game?

Are you implying his son? If so, without Buddy we lose big to ND and this game we would have lost by 30.

 

[OttoMets]

He's right of course.

Because everybody knows that in a 2-3 zone, defense starts with the guys up front on the back line.

 

[NineOneSeven]

It's a good thing we overcame that 20 point game on Saturday when Brey decided to take an ambien at halftime and Buddy went nuclear.

 

[AZOrange]

We miss Hopkins’ recruiting and positive energy. Wonder if any of these assistants can say something to JB.

Yep. He was the YIN to JBs YANG

Tonight would be a good time for one of Matt Park's socioeconomic fan profile tweets.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

I'm pretty calm, like I've been for many games this year. Deflated about this game, yes. I was fired up alllllll day. But whatever, I guess. Still only MONDAY!!

I’m not even a tiny bit surprised or upset about this loss. It’s just who we are now.

I‘ll be far more fired up about my sons game tomorrow night.

 

[LaggyJon]

Jim needs to shut up. Seriously. Got trounced and is taking shots at the one national guy who’s steadfastly defended him for years.

Embarrassing. Shut up.

Minor Controversy: /about to die out

JB:

Id reactivate a twitter tonight for that.

 

[Toga]

Most of this season I thought our pieces were better than the sum of those parts.

This game proved that I was wrong.

This program is haplessly mediocre, both the players and the coaches.

This ain’t getting better until we amp up recruiting X 10. And dramatically improve our offensive and defensive schemes and adjustments.

Other than that Mrs. Lincoln.

 

[BlackSquirrels]

As Bobby knight once said, we fans should just bend over and enjoy it, right?

I thought it was Matt Park who said that.

 

[Alsacs]

This video epitomized our performance tonight. It did make me a laugh a little.

 

[NineOneSeven]

I’m not even a tiny bit surprised or upset about this loss. It’s just who we are now.

I‘ll be far more fired up about my sons game tomorrow night.

I'm not surprised either. And quite calm about it. But bummed, surely. Love Syracuse. Watch every game. It's what I do. Quite literally my passion. And this year I find myself needing these games during the week, badly.

 

[Trueblue25]

Numbing times for Cuse fans.
