[Protes]

Really disappointing showing tonight. Had a week to prepare and we look completely unprepared.

 

[Ronnyp91]

And to think some posters are complaining that Pitt is pursuing too many recruits who play guard.

OK I am officially bowing out before I make more game time foolish comments

To me, only X looks like he belongs. We’re going to waste his career.

 

[Fsgolfdr]

Yea I am 7 ****ing points in 9 minutes is ridiculous score some damn points.

Don’t you know that D is all that counts !!

 

[King Of All Message Boards]

I just got home and turned the game on. What did I miss....

Yikes.

Which could be why he said he isn't expecting to stay long

One team can score and the other can’t ! Want to guess whose who !

Bad offense, Clemson hit some contested shots to start, and since that pitt has fallen apart.

 

[DT_PITT]

It counts for half and our defense is almost as bad as our offense. Clemson is shooting almost 70%.

 

[Black Panther]

We can’t hit a shot to save our a##.i know that’s a bit redundant but true.

 

[anon_d97v9o3a8b6xr]

What happened with the knocked out tooth?

 

[Blair_45]

The shooting on this team is just horrific and embarrassing. Just a pathetic inexcusable first half.

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

Capel-
Yuck

The game plans or lack of them is just painful

The defense was worse

We have no offensive game plan .Yuck

 

[Fredact]

This team has really regressed. Other teams have improved during the year, Pitt has not.

 

[levance2]

That first half was as bad as anything we saw under Stallings. This is very troubling.

 

[Protes]

An ugly, ugly half of basketball. Sadly, we are regressing.

How can you defend when they’re passing the ball and shooting the ball this well ? Your only choices are you either match them or lose .

 

[Blair_45]

No FG’s in the last 8 minutes of the half is embarrassing. Pitt D got a little bit better there at times and got some stops but when you can’t hit one stinkin shot in 8 minutes you aren’t going to beat anybody.

 

[NCLee]

What an absolute waste of time tonight, like many nights. Going to be a quick run out of Oakland tonight

Then leave. Then stop coming. Maybe the fanbase should have realized that the Dixon years were pretty good rather than begging yearly for him to leave so brad Stevens, Sean Miller, Calipari, or Greg Marshall would come here.

Maybe they are passing and shooting well because we aren’t defending well.

Defense is half the game.

Having said this, our defense has not been very good but our offense has been atrocious.

You’re not here, you’re never here. You should put a skirt on and Pom poms in your hands.

Like I said, I think the first 5 or 6 minutes the defense was ok...Clemson hit a bunch of tough shots. After that when we got in a deep hole things went to total hell.

The offense is the bigger issue.

I’ve been to all but two games this year bub. How about you get out.

 

[pittizit]

I’ve been to none and saved a lot of money...

I’m not discounting defense , but when they make 4 really good passes and then bury one from the corner or from 23 ft what ya goin to do !

You must be a young kid. Not getting in a pissing contest with a cheerleader.

 

[Fsgolfdr]

We found our 3 pt man ...Chewy !

 

[H2P 2003]

Must have hit a nerve! Keep it up with the insults.

If you dislike the team so much, don’t watchZ

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

That our defense stinks is entirely on Capel.

He better recruit a whole he’ll of a lot better -
Because cause this team got worse all season

 

[H2P 2003]

I seriously feel that we are the only team that gets moving screens called on them.

We are playing very good defense now. That’s what you are going to do. A little bit better offense but not much. But defense is why we’ve cut 26 points to 15 .

 

[Pittguy93]

When did they remove the 3 second rule in the lane? Thomas has been camping for 5 seconds almost every time.

They did call it once but it is almost never called.

If they could only score they could get back in it .

Half the game.

 

[H2P 2003]

Getting a bit interesting at least.

 

[Fsgolfdr]

Half the game.

You can’t win without it !

 

[H2P 2003]

If you’re at the game, watch the Clemson bench after every made basket. They are literally celebrating on the court.

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

Xavier dribbles to nowhere
Brown missed twice , including an air ball.

We surrender wide open looks from three and Clemson makes one.

I no longer like this team or coaching staff
