Losing to a Georgetown team with 7 scholarship players is atrocious. Absolutely pathetic. RETIRE TOMORROW JB!

This is our worst loss of the season. A rival with 7 scholarship players available? I’m so saddened by the state of our program.

We really are bad. I haven’t wanted to believe it. But we really are weak, and got outmanned by an undermanned team today. Really really sad and embarrassing.

And while I’m at it, Buddy is garbage too. He can’t play defense worth shit. I'm glad someone else thinks that too. JG isn't much better either. Also what was up in the second half with basically JG3 shooting on about 4 or 5 straight possessions and few of these were like WTH, especially the 35 footer. If that had been anyone else JB yanks him. Buddy didn't do squat and thought we played better without him in the 1st half. Why in the hell didn't HW get any kind of run in the second half in the begging or at least half way through. He's better than what we got at PG. Agree that Sidibe is useless. Marek played well but that 2nd and 3rd foul were total garbage. Should have been a charge not a block on the 2nd one, then he barely moved and Hughes knocks down a 3. Game changers. Qunicy is totally lost right now. Why not give Bras his minutes just like they did with HW over Goodine. Jesse is going to be good but he's still learning and not strong enough right now. If Hughes don't come back next year, next year will be worse than this year. There isn't anyone close to his skillset/game on this years team or what we have coming in. This crap is all on JB.

Agreed. A couple of bad calls but can’t blame the refs. We are so soft inside. Second chance points killed us. Dribble penetration also killed us. Mostly because of Buddy’s D. We aren’t going to go to the line much just shooting jumpers all day. I stopped watching with 2 min to go. Did Goodine check in ever? He must be really behind and struggling in practice. Was never a Braswell guy so that’s no surprise either. Not good when Hughes is the only athlete we have out there against a depleted Hoya team. Boy, if Hughes does leave we are in BIG trouble. Love how Sidibe tried to catch a three that was nothing but net. Also love how he had good position for a hook like mid 2H but he threw it back out lol. We are so bad. Bad recruiting has really caught up to us. You just can’t play all these bench/role players so many minutes. You can in the Patriot League.

If Hughes don't come back next year, next year will be worse than this year. There isn't anyone close to his skillset/game on this years team or what we have coming in. This crap is all on JB. I haven’t wanted to write that about Buddy, but my God it’s true. Buddy would be a great player with his brother at Cornell. He has a beautiful stroke, and he’s a cerebral player. Smarts only get you so far without athleticism. He is not an ACC caliber player. I tried to sugarcoat it a few weeks ago, but he’s got zero foot speed, no hops, and little handle. In fact, I think the time for sugarcoating is up. Against any physical team we’re toast. Sidibe is garbage. I’m simply waiting for them to concoct some new injury to justify his putrid play. Heaven forbid Jazz be right about Sidibe. I’m willing to admit when I’m wrong. I took a hard stance against Hughes when he joined from ECU. He’s a nice player. He’s got a beautiful shot. He most definitely is worthy of his scholarship. But, he is limited offensively in that he still struggles to blow by anyone. Most of his points are 3 point field goals, free throws and points on the break. He's a nice college player, and worthy of his starting position. But that’s I guess my point... our best player is a one dimensional shooter and transfer from ECU. Let that sink in. And you’re absolutely right Deano, about Washington. He deserved a run. Buddy’s stats don’t reflect how terrible he was because most of his points came late. I’m also dumbfounded that JB never even tried to speed the game up. We should have run every possession, and played everyone. Pressed for 40 minutes and exhausted them. Oh wait, our guys don’t have a strength and conditioning program. Marek would be winded after two minutes and probably need a smoke! In all seriousness though, JB is as stale and rigid as it gets. There is no salvaging this team. I don’t think we pass the eye test for the NIT. And, as we’ve alluded to, the pieces coming in next season won’t rectify the issues. As nice as Kadary and Woody may be, they’re incapable of guarding the interior. Jesse Edwards is no 210 pounds either. I’d be shocked if he was much over 180 which is what he was listed at until magically he gained twenty pounds the day he signed with us. I see right through the shit show folks. Two years ago I saw what was coming down the pike. Sadly we’ve decompensated faster than I thought we would. I knew we were on a downhill trajectory, but I didn’t think it would be this bad. But you know what? JB deserves this mess today. He was warned by countless people that the program was in trouble, and that recruiting would suffer as he aged and if Hopkins left. JB put his ego ahead of the welfare of the program and for that he no longer gets a free pass. This needs to be the last hoorah. If he hadn’t been such a jerk he could’ve gone out after our Final Four in 2016 with his middle finger in the air. Instead he’s going to go out with a whimper and leave the program in shambles for his successor. How convenient that will be, right? He’s going to trash the program on his way out so he can say no one could achieve the success and glory he did. Sorry JB, if that’s how you play this hand, you don’t deserve shit. There I said it. JB, retire, for the love of God, retire.

Washington got some good minutes but he’s limited athletically. He also gave up dribble penetration. JB tried to speed the game up mid 2H when we got down by 10+ by throwing the desperation press on. As usual it is all very predictable. We have a MAJOR talent deficiency and they are all playing too many minutes minus Hughes. On a talented team just think if Hughes was your number two scorer type guy...money. He’s just having to do too much. Program is sinking. Richmond and Newton ain’t the answers either.
