I can think of no greater indictment of the state of this program than the fact that I just don't want to watch anymore. Not just this game. At all. It's awful on both ends and everywhere in between.

We give our players space to shoot. They miss.

Copeland needs to sit. Has demonstrated zero improvement in any category. Takes the ball to the hoop like he's afraid to get hurt. Guess what Cope? You ain't getting drafted if you keep getting blocked going up for lay ups. Where is the explosion? That's not even to mention his handle. Guy needs a sit down. If his confidence is that fragile, then that's his problem. Shouldn't be the team's problem. He is hurting the team right now in multiple ways.

That sucked. Crushing loss. However, this is on the guards not making smart decisions, not on JTIII's management. The refs also screwed us toward the end of the game with those holding calls. That being said, I think that Maryland got called for some questionable foul calls. We did a good job of attacking, but the refs did bail us out multiple times. I'm stunned, but I'm trying to get myself to think about the long term and how the team has the potential to bounce back in Maui. (I do think JTIII should have kept Jagan in the game for much longer. Moreover, Marcus/Akoy should have in there instead of Jessie.) If anyone cares, I think his strategy was to keep his best FT shooters in the game which, if they hadn't have turned the ball over, probably would have been a good strategy.

Out coached? Not sure you can use that here. 2 dead ball fouls and a travel in 1 sec of game time. DRibbling ball off leg up 9 with 38 to go. Sometimes it's the players fault.

The "other" site tweeted last night we have no shot here. B&G, others, is it that much of a longshot? I don't know about that. Looks like he's having a blast in the picture above.

If you go over there (ESPN) now you'll see that just below the headline is a story about how Duke is the preseason #1 for NEXT season. Classic. Sad. Lame.

Just proves its easier to win when you don't play by the rules. Kentucky, Cuse, UNC.... Same types of teams year after year. NCAA will be now sending them a big check.

Gotta say that watching these games makes me think that the "new rules" to make the game more "watchable" are absolutely ruining it. That foul on the South Dakota guard at the end of the Maryland was an absolute travesty. Really feel bad for the kid. They call that and let other teams constantly grab out cutters. I just don't understand it.

Duke is a worse defense team than we are. They are like 110th in kenpom. Difference is that they get the calls offensively, can score and have a great home court advantage. I watch Duke and I agree they are an awful defensive team. I also see a lot of similarities between them and the Hoyas of this year. Ingram and Allen remind me of Copeland and LJ, with the big difference being that the Duke offense is set up to maximize the abilities of those two. They open the floor and let those two attack every time they get the ball. I have to believe that if Georgetown played a similar system they are playing in the tournament now and not sitting home watching. No doubt Copeland is not the player that Ingram is, but he should be better than most of the players defending him if he was given space and freedom to attack. The two other big differences is Duke doesn't turn it over all the time and they don't foul nearly as often. Part of why they don't foul is that they don't even attempt to play defense most of the time, they just try to outscore you. Also Allen is allowed to use his off hand to push the defender any time he wants. I guarantee LJ would not get away with same. Makes a big difference when you are allowed to do that.

A thrilling non-loss. The longest journey begins with a single step.

Villablanco has to be the most diversity challenged school in the country.

Looks like a 1-16 matchup.

Wow. We've given up 22 pt in less than 8. VU subs will be in at halftime Did you end up going to this game? I warned you, didn't I? Yes. It was Jabrils fault. He got me all pumped up.
