Game 15 - BC @ Syracuse

[BCEagles25]

So since this is Syracuse, let me guess: we’re going to let some doofy white guy (who can only shoot 3’s) score 28-35 on us because we’re leaving him open all game? That’s just tradition. Too bad it has to be that way

Is this tonight?

Is this tonight?

No, it is tonight @ 9 on the ACC network.

I'm almost positive that player doesn't exist anymore on Cuse.

Anyway, we usually play like crap in the Dome against that zone, but Cuse isn't very good so we could steal one here.

It is confusing because the kid is still wearing orange, but we won't see him until this weekend in South Carolina

Shit I missed it.

[BCEagles25]

Might turn this shit off. Sleepwalking on offense. Not serious about winning tonight. Not ready to play. They have turned it over almost every possession and through 16 minutes have 9 points to show for it

[eepstein0]

Can we hire a real coach next time please? This guys sucks

[MattTheEagle]

Very pathetic with 4 minutes left in the first half. BC isn’t going to beat anyone playing like this.

[BCEagles25]

Another lazy pass intercepted. Hand and Zackery have been outright bad

[eepstein0]

Down 10 at the half is a miracle

[eepstein0]

We aren’t beating anyone when Post plays like Nik Popovic

[eepstein0]

Harris getting glued to the bench is another example of Grant’s clueless coaching

[BCEagles25]

Turning it over 21 times on the road and being down only 4 with 2 minutes to go is the moral victory I would’ve taken from this in 2016 but it’s been too long now since a winning season and I don’t care anymore about close

Maybe if they didn’t take the first 16 minutes off, they might have won by 5-10 points. Harris Mcglockton and Madsen thanks for showing up, the rest of them did little but turn the ball over

[angrychicken]

Hard to win a game when 2 of your 3 top scorers put up 0 points

[claver2010]

maybe tedwardo was right on jz

A few things:
- QP can't be your best player when he has the maturity of a petulant child. He's a senior, this still shouldn't be happening. 0 points, 7 TOs and 5 fouls is ridiculous. Grow up.
- JZ is not an ACC PG. He's very limited athletically, can't shoot and makes bizarre decisions. The PGs on Wake, Cuse and NCST are all significantly better.
- These 2 combined 0-11, 8 fouls and 10 TOs last night, and we still nearly won the game.
- Even with the obvious issues with these 2, Grant commits coaching malpractice on a nightly basis. There's plenty of talent on this team. The rotations (let's keep playing Prince and Glock together because that makes ton of sense) (why were JZ and Post put back into the game last night at the under 4 timeout???) (why did Harris get glued to the bench?), timeout usage, etc. have cost BC 4 of their 5 losses. If you can't figure this out by Year 3, you can't be my coach.

Super frustrating because this should be a tournament team, but the best player and coach are dragging them down of a nightly basis.

I predict (hopefully) a Zachery transfer after this year.

[twballgame9]

I thought Zachery was the bestest

[BCEagles25]

JZ is fine. Average-maybe-slightly-below ACC starting PG. Last night he couldn’t complete a pass without turning it over and Quinten post was toxic. The comment about him playing like Nik Poppvic, shit I wish. He was playing like late stage Kendrick perkins. This game should have been won, and BC is the better team. The same is true for NC State. You can’t sleepwalk through a whole 1/4th of the game. Give a fuck
