December 5, 20241 yr NC State is currently 5-2 and 71st in Kenpom. Texas is 6-1 and 34th. But we’re at their place.
December 5, 20241 yr Gotta keep Shedrick off the perimeter on defense … we get killed when he’s flailing around out there

December 5, 20241 yr I'm all for Onyema getting more minutes if he can just prove that's he capable of moving on the perimeter on the defensive end. That's all we need out of him.
December 5, 20241 yr Nobody can fuck with this team when Rodney and the boys are wearing those ugly coaching shirts. They gotta keep wearing them til we lose. Fuck, I may get one.
December 5, 20241 yr Sure would be nice if we worked for some better shots. We seem to have several guys playing one on one tonight.

December 5, 20241 yr Looks like another exciting season of seeing how many wins Weaver can will us to while nearly everyone else watches.
December 5, 20241 yr I get so frustrated watching this offense. Half the time they run really good plays and the other half they’re just jacking it up with no footwork whatsoever. It’s the “tryin’ one” offense.
December 5, 20241 yr RT got tired of Shedricks perimeter D. Playing Codie and Kaluma in the front court now.
December 5, 20241 yr Just now, Pancho said: terrible last second play. Just now, Hookem2147 said: Yeah let’s not inbound to Onyema in that situation. Like ever. that was one of the worst plays I’ve seen in a decade.
December 5, 20241 yr I’m assuming Onyema was supposed to pass back to the inbounder going downhill but his controller died mid play
December 5, 20241 yr I don’t think I’ve ever seen that watching, playing or coaching basketball. Ever.
