Their backs are still against the wall.  The 9 losses are not going to go away.  So I hope the "fighting for their lives" motivation continues.

This team has to improve on defense.  I don't know what it's going to take.  Every player has to be all in on this season at this point.  I just can't imagine each player is not putting in 110% every practice.  This team has a magic aura at this point.  The last 4 games feel like the Elite 8 game last season.  It's just amazing.

Speaking of White, he decision to transfer to Syracuse may be the best transfer decision in CBB history.  I watch a lot of Nebraska games last summer.  White with the Orange is 1000 times better than he was.  Our way of playing basketball really suits him.  I thought the Nebraska team had a lot of ball hogs.  Our teams are always less selfish and more interested in getting the best shot.  You have to play as a team at this level or you will just not win.  White averaging over 20 pts/gm the last 5 is just insanity.   Really amazing!!

Plus, it's not just White's shooting.  He's been very good driving to the rim, getting steals, and getting rebounds.  Wow, how can you not like this kid with the effort he's putting in.  He's certainly made a mark with Orange fans.  If they make the tournament and have a deep run he will be revered by Orange nation for a long time.   God, this is fun!
