Great post and I completely agree. It's early in the season and I was happy with HOW we played. I like this team, especially the bigs.

What??? you are happy with our bigs? Did you watch the gaem last nite. Lahkin basically gave the game away. Back to back games with no defense giving up 90 points is not something to be happy about. A 3RD LOSS IN 5 TRIES AGAINST USUCK IS NOT SOMETHING TO BE HAPPY ABOUT!!

Yep. He played like a young idiot. Reminds me of the last center with great things and dumb things.

I did watch the game. No, I’m not happy with how the bigs played last night, but I like our size and ability to rotate that size throughout the game. Overall, I liked the fight and potential of this year's team.

Seeing Heidbreder have a good game and be confident should make a difference down the road. They need a little more offense to avoid those lulls.

Amen! Certainly no reason to hang our head after that one. Wish we had gotten the W against Memphis so this wouldn't sting quite as bad. Hopefully lesson learned in these last few games to not get in such a big hole early.
I think we come out fired up against Wake.

Voice of reason - bold move man!
Agree tho - folks are going to sleep on this team because we've been sloppy the past couple games but I wouldn't be surprised if they went on a deep run in the tournament like last year.
Last night was full of wild ebbs and flows and if we had our B game we probably win comfortably.
Well, on to Wake Forest!

from a tough battle, lost in the end when control had been taken with a couple minutes left.
Saturdays loss was a very bad loss from a teams mindset...back and forth, they take a big lead, Clemson storms back and takes a 6 point lead late in the game, sloppy play, turnovers, poor execution and shot selection....and an overtime loss.
I am pretty sure Saturdays loss beat us again against the Coots. That cannot happen, you leave every game in the past and prepare for the next. You learn, get better, but you mentally forget the game and move forward. I think the guys, at least some of them, were not completely into the game and it showed with some poor execution and shot selection. Losing to the Coots is bad, but after our recent trend with them in sports it was not the outcome we needed. Just a game, plenty more, but a very important game even if not a conference game.
