Wow. This was falling on our face. JB recruited these players, makes the call who plays the minutes and it's his scheme. You can't have two seniors continue to fade away in big games. You can't have a scheme that gives away open 3s in a version of the game where everyone wants to get open 3s.

All the things people rave about- a packed dome, our legacy, JB as a HOF and I could go on, no longer go out and get the job done. Last night was embarrassing for the program. Less so than usual because it's happened numerous times.

Also this is no longer this "us against the world" thing that seems implied from some folks. Vitale now saying it's time like many others is not the talking heads being unfair or missing how young we are etc. They are simply folks who love hoops and know hoops and can see it for what it is. We have to graduate to the next phase of the program... for the 1000th time and amongst so many others saying it. We aren't winning the ACCT. Sorry to be a Debbie Downer on that too but NIT is our future ( hopefully). Also there is no guarantee we don't get knocked out of the NIT early.

Also last night wasn't just a loss. It was getting hammered by an unranked team in a big game in front of a big crowd. We weren't even competitive. Beating Duke is like beating UVA and UNC now
