Wake Forest is the best team they’ve played this year, and they’re going to the ncaa tournament. That starting 5 is ridiculous.

At least the second game they've lost at the free throw line.

They double- and triple-team to prevent 2-point attempts, but in doing so give up wide-open 3's to a team with good outside shooters.

If BC had just one steady shooting guard...

Tonight was pure coaching malpractice. Grant was a bad hire 3 years ago and is still a bad hire.

How do you keep running Glock and Prince out there together all night? Also, how do you not foul at the end?

That was a mediocre Wake team (as was NCST). The ACC is historically bad this year.

I take it they didn't win? Crap.

Zachery looked pretty dominant from the box score, surprised they lost.

Well, we don’t suck with the power of ten thousand Hoovers anymore. Instead, we are just abysmally mediocre and constitutionally incapable of making big plays against slightly above average teams. The ceiling for this team is an first round exit from the NIT.

NC State is mediocre. Wake Forest is not. They armed themselves pretty well via the transfer portal. Their depth is highly questionable but their starters can really play. They’re 6-0 since Efton Reid’s been playing

Point being if you want to go where this team wants to go you can't lose to NCST & Wake at home. A coach with a clue about how to use a timeout or rotations would be 2-0 in the ACC since neither of those teams are good and BC has plenty of talent.

It's cool though, let's keep playing Prince & Glock together, pulling Post/Harris out of the game at the same time and carrying multiple timeouts into the locker-room like that's sounds basketball strategy.
