Postgame Thoughts... Illinois

[sugrad68]

This team may not win 10 games. Decent on defense. Horrible on offense. Can you imagine if we lost Edwards like we did last year? It's hard to be upset with the performance of the team. They just are not good.

 

[Obie9]

Pathetic. Shutup Benny. There’s 49 seconds left.

At least he cares and is showing emotion.

I did not expect to win. Honestly did not expect it to be close either, so result wasn't surprising. Sad to say.

Think it's pretty clear JB has no clue how to handle the rotations on this team. I do appreciate subbing in guards (no comment about Joe outside of yikes... yikes). I don't understand the JBA minutes (and I love him, the ENFORCER).

I like Taylor a lot. Definitely a player I want to see more of. Smooth jumper, composed player.

We are asking Judah to do so much. Way too much. Loved his dunk though. That's the athleticism we clearly had been lacking. Hopefully he can become a threat to shoot outside the paint because for this team it will be critical and for his own ceiling, it will be critical.

Jesse had a tough time navigating inside tonight, but he certainly was battling down there. Again, we ask so much of him. So sick of seeing such soft foul calls too.

3-4. Not ideal.

We are NOT expecting Judah to do too much. He is trying to do to much. That is part of the growth process.

Jim Boeheim should be prepared for his worst season ever.
To rework a famous phrase from a certain coach, "This team will be lucky to win 10 d--n games."
And that's no joke.

 

[samspann1]

It's time.

it's long overdue.

 

[suorange08]

Lol. No.. they were not.

It's ok to admit that we stink and so did these refs.

[Melancer46]

About what I expected. We looked like a mid major.

I’d kill to look that good right now.

 

[NineOneSeven]

For the first time ever, you can legit wonder if we will win a single conference game.

We have to hope someone is more dysfunctional that we are.

Looks like a couple of teams are but honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if Louisville won. That game might be the worst game in ACC history.

 

[Dave]

Nah, screw the refs, call the game how it should be called till the end.

…and don’t miss a call and then stare at a frustrated player. the ref.

 

[City of Cuse]

I said before the year started spacing for Jesse would be tough this year. They need to get him the ball in better spots.

When joe isn’t playing the should switch to man for some possession.

Copeland needs more minutes. Just play for the future.

 

[NineOneSeven]

We are NOT expecting Judah to do too much. He is trying to do to much. That is part of the growth process.

A bit of both. We certainly need him to do a lot.

 

[HakAttack]

In the words of the immortal Michael Ray Richardson, "the ship be sinking".

 

[Biaxtar]

These refs were terrible and blatantly favoring Illinois. I have no issue with his fire and calling them out. Wish Boeheim would've too.

Refs dont make or break a 30-point game. We deserved to lose

 

[djcon57]

What was the spread? I should take TinyManInside 's tip and bet against SU all season.

I might have bet on Illinois at half

 

[Orangefizz]

I need to watch some G league ignite to see how Jason Hart coaches his offense and defense.

 

[721Comstock]

He’s already retired

He’s quiet quitting.

He’s been quiet quitting since before it was cool.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

I’d kill to look that good right now.

He didn’t say we look like a good mid major

 

[cliftonparksufan]

Hima had a +1 in the +/- while he was on the court. We'll need that next season.

 

[rocfan44]

Lose by 30, lose by 2 a loss is a loss. Everyone said we had no chance anyways so why all the bitching?

 

[hoopsupstate]

We need a coach to mold and shape this young roster that isn’t as bad our record shows.

JAB is not that coach

This is not close to a ACC roster.

 

[suorange08]

Refs dont make or break a 30-point game. We deserved to lose

I agree and it wasn't the point of my post

 

[samspann1]

LOL. We lost by 29 to a team that shot 36% from the inside the arc, 28% from outside the arc and 64% from the FT line.

 

[Scooch]

We stink.

We’ll get better. But the program as we knew it is dead.

 

[OrangeDW]

At least he cares and is showing emotion.

Eh, big deal. Everyone should care. That’s not special.

Spazzing out like that is fake tough. He’s been doing it all year to a degree. Get some mental toughness.
