Good post. My personal feeling is that the NIT is the ceiling for this year’s squad (I hope not, but I’m also trying to be realistic). February is a pretty brutal stretch, and we’re at 2-4 with 12 games left. Best projection near as I can figure is 7-5 the rest of the way. That puts them at 9-9 and probably needing to make the ACC tournament final at least to have a puncher’s chance at getting into the NCAA (probably as a 9-13 seed if we do).
Winning against the Terps without Buckets? That was a good sign. The bad signs: this team is still young, still gets too careless with the ball, and doesn’t seem to move well enough in the half-court on either offense or defense. I hope that’s a downward trend.
Even if it’s the Twerps, I hate to see 93 years of tradition getting flushed. But if it had to end, at least we got last taps. G’night, everybody.
Amen, Rick. Great bounceback from a beatdown in Cameron and losing Buckets 10 minutes before tipoff.
Lot of guts being shown right now in the face of adversity. Hope they can pull out the win. If they’re able to do that without Buckets, it’s got to do wonders for their confidence.
Of course there’s a three as the buzzer sounds. And Lee has hurt as much as he has helped so far tonight.
Just saw the news about Buckets. Here’s hoping for a competitive game. Good rebounding so far, at least.
