** Somehow, even in just the first few minutes, you could feel this was going to happen.
** Sure, early on, Jaland worked hard to keep it interesting. But when a guy named Parker Friedrichsen hits a pair of threes, you know it for sure.
** I certainly can’t feel angry at our Panthers after this total washout loss. After some pretty wonderful basketball, they were due for a stinker. I mean a 33 point stinker is a bit more of a stinker than is easy to swallow. But I can’t say I’d feel any better had this been a 13 point loss.
** What I do feel a bit grumpy about was our work on the defensive end. Wake was indeed clicking on all cylinders. But we never made it hard on them ether. Not in the slightest.
** Wake shot 61%. And for the stat geeks, their team true shooting percentage was an ungodly 76.1%.
** Just for the sake of misery, our true shooting percentage was 41%.
** There’s really not much more to offer this.
** We knew we could lose another one to make the NCAA tournament. This was one we figured we could lose, regardless of the score.
** On ESPN’s Bubble Watch, we were listed as “work to do.” Even if we would have won this game by 3 instead of lose by 33, we still would have been listed as “work to do.”
** The work continues Saturday against the Hokies. Put on your hardhats fellas.
