Tennessee Postgame

[Jake]

Storming the court after beating No. 13? Weak. If they were ranked No. 1, fine. That’s worth the chaos. But No. 13? Come on. Act like you’ve been there before.

Well, the students haven’t. That’s kinda the point.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Also, THEY HAVENT BEEN THERE BEFORE. This program hasn’t had a quality win in at least 7 years if not longer.

 

[SanDiegoCuse]

Nah it was just how they had the sound on espn. It was the same for football all year too. It would be rocking and my friends would ask why it was so quiet

The sound engineer needs to be replaced. It’s the 3rd game this season where the sound was awful.

Now if 62 year old Bob from Solvay was doing it then...

Have we taken a step back from the edge of the cliff?

My name’s not Bob….

You’re kidding, right?

 

[GoCuse14]

Respectfully, you rushed the court on a team that is not even top 10 right now and hasn’t been to a final 4

Yeah Sad

Ur sad

 

[Cusefan0307]

Respectfully, get over it. This isn’t the same program from 20-30 years ago.

Those kids were 8 or 9 years old the last time we were nationally relevant. Who cares.

Bunch of naysayers on here…

 

[Cheriehoop]

ACC so far is 3-2 vs SEC

 

[JustPherU]

Brain fart. Ignore me.

I was thinking the same thing, for some reason I’m thinking we lose if he makes that final shot.Have no idea why, but yeah brain fart.

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

Somehow the Houston game hurts even more

Sooo close to 2-2 coming out of that gauntlet

 

[Cuseregular]

William Kyle is gonna give the bigs in the ACC a spanking

Just absolutely cannot wait for him to be in the face of Malik Brown all game long

 

[Orangezoo]

Well. I’m just going to enjoy the win.

I thought JJ had two really big shots for us to stem the tide. The 3 and the pull up mid range shot. Huge plays. That Larry Bird Special should make the espn top 10. Also want to give him credit for that first assist to Kings for the 3. Got him going.

Kyle played about as good defensively in the post as possible. Blocks and drew charges. Super effort. Just a warrior out there. Good for him hitting that free throw, but what a horrific decision to run a slip screen to him in that spot.

It’s been said a couple times already, but Nate Kings completely flummoxed Gillespie. What a luxury to have a wing defender with his size. Also like how well he gets to the basket. That he didn’t get looks in the 2nd was disappointing.

Sadiq is getting some high quality experience with Donnie out. Will only help us later in the season. Love his energy. He can board, jump and shoot. Really needs to work on his handle.

I thought Kiyan played within himself tonight. Took good shots, played respectable defense.

Since I can’t say anything nice about Nait George, I’m going to say nothing. He’s got to get better.

This is a really good defensive team. It can show up every night. I really prefer offensive teams - I just find it more enjoyable to watch- but those off nights get ugly. No reason for this team to get blown out badly when it can throw stoppers out there at three positions.

Offensively, we’re just carpet bombers. We need to take 100 shots to get 70 points. There are no easy baskets for us.


Let’s rest Donnie against the cupcakes, get him ready for league play and take our chances.

Donnie is key to this team from an offensive standpoint in terms of being better on that end as is George playing better.

One thing that’s for certain is this team has been challenged as much as anyone in the country in terms of playing against elite defense. The ACC is improved but won’t feel anything like that after this last 4 game gauntlet. This is experience should help with getting better and execution against weaker teams.

Who cares? Better than the negativity that flows so often even after a big win.

 

[Grbac]

If you don’t like everyone storming the court and celebrating well then go yell at the clouds somewhere else.
This was a HUGE win for our current team. We needed this like Fran Brown needs a bath. Long time coming.

Let’s celebrate this one. Then let’s jump back on the Orange train bound for March Madness.

I am SO happy for JJ! He gets a lot of crap and has had some really down times but he played hard defense and deserved to have that great stretch at the end.

This is so huge, that he took control tonight, showed leadership, and just as importantly, the ability to finish. Most any teams success needs that steady senior leadership with a player who takes control. He did just that tonight. I was starting to question it after earlier this year with the hitch, etc. Looks like he’s dug down deep and is coming into his own. Should pay huge dividends down the road when it matters

 

[Blanko97]

Have we taken a step back from the edge of the cliff?

Until the next game!

 

[JustPherU]

Survive and advance!

 

[Otto21]

LET’S GOOOOO ORANGE!!!!!! AMAZING DEFENSE!!!

 

[CuseIn282xx]

Sadiq played tonight like he wasn’t afraid to make a mistake or commit fouls. He played hard and played a great game

By the end of the year, Sadiq will be our best big man.
