Trivial but....

Jamie should have emptied his bench at end. That's bs. Kids worked hard all year and deserved to at least get into an acc tourney game.

Disagree. If perception is reality, a committee that hasn't seen us all year, sees a 27-point blowout because we "emptied the bench." That could hurt us come Sunday night.

Heard Joe Lunardi talking about the score margin and kept the starters in at the end to keep us in the tournament. Good coaching call.

Roy emptied his bench with all backups at around 30 seconds. Jamie could have done same and should have at that point. I know what he was doing but he went too far.

I don't know about the others, but I was mostly mocking the Lunardi "if they lose by 20 blah blah" nonsense.

Went too far with what? Those guys got into plenty of games this year, and those of us who go to all their games cheer them on each time.

It was critical to keep it under 20.
and UNC's bench is MUCH better than ours and they could have scored on us quickly.

if he put them in, and we lost by 22 and Lundardi said "Pitt got blown out and now might not even make it to Dayton" what would u have to say then?

Agree. I think he's just not into that stuff, and staff has to remind him. He HATES the phony, scripted handshake line. If the kids want to congratulate each other, it'd mean something. I remember the good will between Pitt & Syracuse in the '80s, and lots of others. (Not Nova with Rollie)

This kind of stuff really goes to show how retarded the USA has become.
