About what I expected

Nothing wrong with the effort and intensity. Lack of overall height and lack of quality bigs is the main problem.

It reflects no inside-outside game balance. When you have no one who can effectively post up down low it seriously damages the rest of your game. Open outside shots are harder to get. It is harder to drive to the hoop and score when you have no big to feed down low as a safety valve. That means you either miss, get blocked or, you must, if possible, find someone on the outside to shoot a jumper.

There are going to be a lot of games like this in ACC play. Coach Capel's challenge will be to be able to keep the young guys improving and from losing heart.

This will not be the only embarrassing loss of the year, but we will be much better than 0-18.

Pressing too much to show they belong. Need to let these games come to them. It will get better

We have had NO inside game for two years. I wish we still had Nix. Lol

Solid posts. I would add that if Frame could actually shoot they’d have a better chance. But they are just outmanned

Brown just got the ball under the hoop, took a dribble he did not have time for, and got stuffed at the rim. Sums it up .

With any recruiting at all, Brown and George are Gone. I'm fairly confident that this staff can pull in better recruits and transfers now.

I wonder if he would celebrate after missing a free throw ;-)
