if they go 20-for-20 at the charity stripe again, then yes, they will win THIS game

We did win the second half. So suck on that knowledge!

Everyone gives up a 14-2 run under 4 minutes left and up 9 to a team missing its second best player. It happens.

This should not be looked at as an indictment in year 3 of Grant as a coach and his very promising future at BC. :ace

Disgraceful. This tournament has potential to be a Rutgers moment
I like BC basketball.

- If BCs going to continue to shoot 4 of 23 from deep, this team is going nowhere
- Earl was fine in these two games coaching wise. It’s not his strong point and he’s much improved
- 8 turnovers today isn’t bad, but for a school that allegedly has academic standards we play a lot of dumb basketball (and football). Guys whipping passes one handed cross-court, stupid fouls (Glock), etc.

My concern with Earl’s teams is lack of shooting in modern day college basketball and it continues to be a problem. You win this game by 20+ if we could make a jump shot (or a layup).

The lack of outside shooting other than Post is alarming and makes them very easy to defend. Hence long long scoring droughts.

I have a bad feeling that Mason Madsen was his 1 attempt at bringing in a pure shooter.

By now there needed to be another point guard who is more well rounded. Zackery actually looks like he is regressing each game (I know I know he is not an ACC player). :ace
