Our guys are young. Their guys are young. They are the NBA annointed. This game our guys get asked the existential question, "What are you doing here?"

Getting a degree? Yes (I hope)
Playing some ball? Yes
Getting ready for the NBA?

The last question is the question these guys have to ask themselves. If yes, every summer they have to get much much better. They have to figure the Duke kids are working hard, but they have to work harder and smarter. Developing handles, working on a 3 ball, bumping up a vert. You name it they have to pick a couple of things a summer and blow up on them. Then when they are juniors and seniors and they play the 1anddone'ers from Duke or wherever... they feel like they got a shot... better yet they feel like they got experience and heart over these kids, and their skills are on par.

We'll get there. Today is the proverbial day the coach will refer back to when its time to leave for the offseason.

I love how one of the announcers said "well I don't know" in the lowest auditory mumble possible after watching the replay of a "blocking foul" that someone put on Plumlee earlier in the game. Way to take a stand there.

Complete BS that Ingram doesnt get whistled for the reach in right there

They are used to getting them, any turnovers or misses must be the result of fouls

They generally win the "whining battle". It's just something they're good at.

Watching Plumlee come up short on that dunk was the best thing all day, even with the foul

Yep, that's really all we can hope for from the second half. The level on intensity and attention to detail just wasn't there from the opening whistle. Hopefully they come out and keep playing in the 2nd half and can build on that. This year will be full of up and downs, just got to learn from the setbacks.

His primary recruiter was hired as their WR coach, very doubtful he ends up with the good guys

I don't think it is fair the criticism Shane got as a recruiter, he brought in more 4* talent than everyone and while he struck out at Richmond it needs to be kept in mind that Fisher, Caleb, Reavis were all kicked out/transferred/never developed doesn't do much for selling kids not to mention CFB being a lame duck

Foul count is 13-8 at half, but it was 13-5 before the officials called some small off the ball fouls to make it look better. The difference is the Duke fouls didn't have much affect, our fouls took points away on offense and resulted in free throws on their end.

Yea, I don't think we're within the "refs are giving it to them" margin.
