Absolutely pathetic 2nd half of basketball. No sense of urgency. Frank was terrible. Sidibe was terrible. Oshae won't drive the ball. Tyus was frustrated. Hughes played soft too. Dolejaz is not a center. Chewy had a two minute stretch of good play and that's it. Hope he's ok, but he really doesn't offer much.
It was ugly, sloppy, and might have just sealed our NCAA fate. Nothing but perimeter passing, east and west. Just atrocious basketball. I have had enough. JB has no excuses tonight, at home, in a must win game.
We will get obliterated by Duke. I wouldn't be surprised to see us lose by 40. OMG it's embarrassing.

Time for coaching change. Should have been done last year.

Yup. He recruited these players as well.

And this is the team that the "other board " said was a National Championship contender??? That's a joke.

I was mocked when I said Iโd have to see it to believe it re: offense before making such bold declarations. It all makes sense to me. JB scheme both on O and D. No value placed on fundamentals. I doubt he likes teaching truly. With Frank 100% you can only go so far so... Carey/Buddy not being the contributors expected. Carey especially. Some people called him a RWestbrook/JCrawford/Waiters type. Centers giving us nothing. Marek and Oshae apparently not working on their games. Could go on and on. Battle is a good complementary player to some stud but we donโt have those.

We're terrible, and he's to headstrong to call it quits.

JB's one main problem is he thinks that is D wins championships and forgets about having a decent offense. When the D sucks we are in deep doo-doo.

When the D sucks we are in deep doo-doo. m Sad If he truly has adopted this model of playing Zone D and doing just enough on offense to get by. My blame is on recruiting. You just canโt recruit all these โlongโ dudes and expect to be OK. I know they have to identify/confirm the kids who are down with playing all-Zone 24/7 but thatโs another discussion. Long dudes arenโt necessarily quick and that is what we are seeing. Lack of quickness/footspeed

Lack of quickness/footspeed Lack of a true point guard and lack of a center worth shit, doesn't allow for much versatility on offense, that's for sure.
