My expectations are very simple for the BB program.

Be competitive. I don't need to win them all. Or expect us to get to final four or be in the show every year.
I just want to know that on a given night, with a few breaks - we can upset a ranked team. That the other team has to respect us and play a good game to win.
Losing by 30 to Pitt was bad enough. But losing by 30 to a bad UNC team is just not acceptable.
UNC has no guards, yet we cannot control them. We are making mcadoo look like the number 1 player in the country. We are making their center who cannot even jump - look like a great player.
So what is our offensive or defensive philosophy?
I look at teams like Butler, or JMU, etc. they don't get better players then Clemson. Yet they have their day.
When will be our day?

It's simple: As bad as you think UNC is, they are still much

more talented than us. Talent. That's it. Don't look any further.

I agree with the talent comment. But was Belmont, UAB, wake, Miami and Texas - more talented than UNC? Nope, yet they took care of business against the heels.

The most talented team does not always win - but they

win most of the time. and when they play well, they will beat a less talented team - like tonight.

agreed....it's all about the talent level


Jan 26, 2014, 8:30 PM

and the more talented team is going to win the vast majority of the time...we don't have the talent level of NC....very very rarely have...if ever and probably won't ever...not a slam on BB...but the fact is NC will never have the talent on a consistent basis of Clemson in football...we care about football...they care about basketball.

They DID beat a ranked team. Duke? Frankly that is way more than I expected going into this year. Still pissed that we played so badly the last two games but this program is moving forward.
