Posted: Sat Dec 09, 2017 1:36 pmEvery kid on this team plays completely out of control. A couple of them screw up every single time they touch the ball.
They aren't coached at all.

Posted: Sat Dec 09, 2017 1:37 pmI believe most of us are watching to hope that the let down doesn't happen. I'm sure it will, though.

Posted: Sat Dec 09, 2017 1:48 pmIts not a letdown you have division one players who can't make an uncontested layup.
This program needs an enema.

Re: Duke game thread
Posted: Sat Dec 09, 2017 2:09 pmI check this thread after just witnessing the upset of Duke and the comments are about 50/50 in terms of positive/negative.
Great win.

Posted: Sat Dec 09, 2017 2:15 pmIt is always good to beat Coach Rat Face. And I hope Jimmy Christian enjoyed it and reminisces about this game next year when he is coaching Akron or Bowling Green.
Re: Duke game thread
Posted: Sat Dec 09, 2017 2:25 pmThat was an incredible game. Glad I was dead wrong.
9 more wins until an NIT bid. Can Christian et al get 9 from: Columbia, Central Connecticut, Richmond, and Dartmouth + ACC schedule?

Re: Duke game thread
Posted: Sat Dec 09, 2017 2:25 pmAs a non-hoops weirdo, can someone explain to me how that just happened?
PS anytime Duke loses that’s a win in my book

That is exactly what I was thinking. Duke came down and banged a 3 from there, putting us down 4. Very happy surprise! We actually played quite well from that point. As usual lots and lots of wasted possessions yet we scored a ridiculous amount of points. There is talent there. Also, WE MADE OUR FREE THROWS!
Re: Duke game thread
Posted: Sat Dec 09, 2017 3:29 pmDidn't seem that we turned the ball over as much either. Mitchell had FIVE assists!
Re: Duke game thread
Posted: Sat Dec 09, 2017 3:39 pmThis is how far BC hoops has fallen off my radar. I didn't even know we were playing Duke today. Great win, but didn't Onahue beat #1 'Cuse his last year? Looking for a pattern
Re: Duke game thread
Posted: Sat Dec 09, 2017 4:13 pmWe are now 4-5 all time when playing #1, that's a lot better than most I would think

Since 2010, BC is 37-102 in the ACC, but 3-0 against # 1 teams in the country.

I finally figured out a good comp for Mitchell. If he can improve his shooting he can have the same career as Anthony Tolliver
You wouldn't really say he outplayed Bagley but he did well keeping him in check

Absolutely nothing. Post is pretty accurate.
Re: Duke game thread
Posted: Sat Dec 09, 2017 5:34 pmToday was the loudest I’ve heard Conte in a long time. Great win, fun atmosphere. I thought we were toast when Duke got in the double bonus and Bowman got his 4th foul with 9 min left but the team hung tough

I was aware but forgot. Turned it on by accident a couple minutes into the 2nd with BC up by 10.
Really happy for the kids. Did they show Jarmond on TV at all?
