What sucks is that it is not even February and we are already pretty much assured another season of not dancing in March. Also, while we may not be deteriorating as we did over the past couple of seasons, we don't seem to be on any significant upswing.
We have more holes than Swiss cheese.
Anyway, for Red's sake this team needs to finish in a solid fashion, i.e. no more questionable losses, sloppy/lethargic play, late collapses, etc, and an ACC tourney win (or two) would surely help build some psychological momentum looking towards next year.
Red has done fine his first year, so far, but starting next year it is really time to start turning the program around.
Just my take
