ParticipantAwful….Just awful. No defense played on either side. We are a really bad team with good players.

ParticipantMy little rant against officiating – that sequence with Abu’s travel, the jump ball on Mav, then the foul on Abu turned the tide. Curious that there was no replay on the first two, the Abu foul was a bad call IMO. Still, that was way before the 16 point lead was blown.

ParticipantDamn we will finish in last place. WE SUCK WE SUCK WE SUCK WE SUCK WE SUCK WE SUCK. What is the excuse now. Oh yeah we are a young team.

ParticipantIt is time.
One of the stranger things to me was smith was on Gillen.
It. Really. Sucks. Being. An. N.C. State.Fan.
That’s all.
I don’t know what we have done but the man upstairs is trying to push us away from sports.

ParticipantCall me when we have another AD and coach.

ParticipantI think the team played pretty well tonight. The problem is that in this conference you can play well and still lose. This kind of game is the reason why it is imperative to take care of business against the “lesser” teams. If we beat WF, GT, & BC (or even just 2 of 3) we can easily absorb this kind of loss.
But instead this is basically the nail in the coffin for this season.

Not even close right now.

ParticipantGuys this season is over. We will not win 5 ACC games this year. How long must we suffer!!!!

ParticipantIf you’re pulling for State to win games you’re pulling against the program. This Sendekian meltdown increases the chance of G being fired. The worst outcome is that we made the dance this year. The best outcome is dumbster fire.

ParticipantStill missing the timeout during the loss of the 16 point lead.
yeah… after a 17-2 run… and that was 30sec TO…
Now… my coaching book says when they score three times in a row in the second half of a close game, you call the full TO… everytime… NO THINKING ALLOWED!
There are at least a half a dozen paid suits on the bench during the game…. and at least one of them should have yelling in the Coach’s ear…
“Need a Timeout, Coach”
This I don’t F’ing understand….
SMH
Of course, we’ll never get a decent explanation, so WTF…
Kids played their ass#s off tonight and deserved better…
Proud of them….

ParticipantWe lost by 51 to the Holes just in case that slipped anyone’s mind. The same team that struggled against Pitt last night. Lost big to the better teams and lost decent to weak teams. Squeezed by no name teams earlier in the season. Everyone head to Char Grill to chill with Anya after the game.
02/01/2017 at 9:34 PM #116139choppack1
ParticipantYea Bill. There are more suits on our bench than a men’s Warehouse.

Participantdumbster fire.
typo but it stays

ParticipantBest……deepest….most talented team seen at NC State in decades. And we will finish DEAD Last in conference. Amazing ! The Gott snake oil show is over for prospects, players and fans. Only thing that can right this ship is fire Gott by nights end.

ParticipantI think some of Gott’s rotations and game strategy reminds me of something….Mmmm what is it? Oh, grab a handful of poo and throw it at the wall to see if it sticks. It’s still $hit not matter what it does.
02/01/2017 at 9:38 PM #116143BJD95
KeymasterThe NCAAT is essentially out of reach with the Holes (“I’d rather not eat than lose to State”), ND (Jeebus, with their shooters and our D??), and FSU (we will wilt from the physicality) still on the slate.
That doesn’t even account for Wahoowa, who I always think we can beat, then beats us by about 50.
Game, set, match. The NIT would be a minor miracle, really.

ParticipantOne free throw. Plain and simple. 10 for 18 in regulation. Not that it would make all of the other issues disappear, but this would be a W instead of an L.

ParticipantI apologize for not wading through all the posts. I shut down my phone at the half. Here are some thoughts after riding home and also listening to the Post Mortem (which WordPress canNOT spell).
Coach Gottfried did NOT mention anything about the LAST Cuse possession during regular play. Why, in the name of Jimmy V., did we NOT foul and let Cuse hit 2 and then be up by ONE and have to be fouled…? Maybe YOU GUYS discussed that and understand it….but I and about 10K other folks could NOT resolve it.
Coach Gottfried had all the stats on their STAR John Gillon. He quoted that he had hit 12 3PT’er in the 9 ACC Games. He got 9 TONGIHT….I thought it was 10, but it does NOT matter. Why did we NOT contest his shots? YES, sometimes a player will step up. It seems like we specialize in making Mediocre Players have a night that will go down in INFAMY and give them and their school something to talk about for generations to come.
The Officiating did take a dramatic turn about mid H2. The Tweetie Birds came out of hibernation. And Mr. Gillon stepped up. NOT saying it was the REF’s fault, but they certainly seemed to be an influence.
Kapita was a NON-Existent Force…but he only got a few minutes. We actually rolled the ball DOWN to let Anya lumber on down and get on Defense….SOMETHING ain’t RIGHT….
Coach Gottfried expressed NO major remorse….it was one of those….you CANNOT win them all….in that when a team gets hot and there were some “questionable calls”, you will LOSE. Excuse me….but when you do NOT have a defensive strategy, you USUALLY DO LOSE….THEM ALL>>>>!!!!!
StateRed44….IF I thought it would go that way, then we SHOULD push for a court Martial. In the end, those of us that mutinied will be given the Code Red.
They flashed up a scene from Top Gun where Tom Cruise (Maverick) was cocky. We need a Cocky (Fill In the Blank) to play Tom Cruise’s role of Lt. Daniel Kaffee…..
Good piece of writing, 44….Totally Agree. I have been on the receiving end of some of her emails and she plays the part of Col. Nathan Jessup quite convincingly….
OH WELL….I had already decided NOT to go to any Post Season games anyway…
TO close…..there was a discussion….NOT instigated or started by me, BEFORE the game from some of the LTR’s in the Champions Club about Bobby Lutz and how we seem to be floundering WITHOUT his Defensive Prowess….can recruit players with the same finesse and “SCORE” with them like certain members of the coaching staff can with “skirts”….
The SUITS comment is one that many, from the second level have observed. We DO have more folks in blazers or suit jackets than we do PLAYERS….
02/01/2017 at 11:11 PM #116150JeremyH
ParticipantI had a previous engagement and I missed the game. I looked at my phone to see we were up 6 and Mav was going off! Then I glanced at it driving home to see OT and a loss. Oh geez, absolutely needed this one, that’s tough.
02/02/2017 at 12:07 AM #116151bill.onthebeach
ParticipantI kinda like the analogous ambiguity of “Code RED”…
To say the least…. Game/Bench coaching is NOT our strength…
If we are at the ” Code RED ” level, what happens when we go to ” Code WHITE “…
D.E.F.C.O.N. 5 ???——————
Would have loved to have seen Boeheim in our huddle talking Zone Defense…
——————
TK missed the signals changing Defense from MTM to Zone a couple of times and was totally lost last game…
that’s enough to get you a seat…But it also raises the ever present question…
After 4-6 months of daily practice… How do you still miss those signals?
——————If we were thinking Tom Hanks, instead of Tom Cruise…
some wisea## would quip…Wolfpack Basketball is a Box of Chocolates!
——————
Good night Gents…
Most of us GOTTa go to work tomorrow and smile when we don’t really want to….
