There should only be pride


Feb 20, 2016, 5:50 PM

In the hearts of Tiger Basketball fans everywhere, IMO. They have far exceeded any expectations I had for this year and are looking like a very solid and talented team for 2016-2017 in the "new" LJ. I would love to see a NCAA invite but the NIT will allow our guys to gain more practice time and get some post-season experience! These guys showalot of heart and pride ever single game and I am proud of their efforts! Go Tigers!

you make far too much sense for some people on here...

Most seem to forget that we were 7-5 and looked dead in the water when the calendar flipped to January.

This, along with the 2003 football season, have been one of the most fun turnarounds I have ever seen. It was a fun ride and I look forward to the last 3 games to see how much we have left in the tank. I won't give up until there are no games left in front of us

And what were your realistic expectations after last year? We're you expecting a national title run? The kids have played their butt off this season and have had a chance down the stretch in every game. We have 9 ACC wins with a realistic chance to make the tourny if we get hot down the stretch which I think they will.

We should always be happy with the NIT


Feb 20, 2016, 6:14 PM

we can't do better anyways

I am certainly proud of the effort, and am proud of the job


Feb 20, 2016, 6:26 PM

coaches and players alike have done after such a miserable start. If we make the dance, and are beginning a turnaround for the basketball program, I'm happy. If this turns into another year of no dance, however, I'll be extremely disappointed. It would be a mistake to become satisfied with mediocre results, in my humble opinion, no matter how proud we are of the effort.

Much appreciation for JB - dude is a warrior.

Most of the other guys play hard - mostly against more skilled players.

Props to Holmes - shoeing some real promise.

The team did a very good job recovering from the Nov-Dec debacle. JB just hasn't had enough consistent scoring help to make them an NCAA team. Will be very surprised if he doesn't declare for the draft. Don't see anyone on the roster who can replace his production as a forward who can shoot the trey and move with the ball to open spots for closer shots.

it seems BB is like a Jedi...


Feb 21, 2016, 2:48 PM [ in reply to Wait, so the team will miss the NCAA Tournament AGAIN ]

over time, win some ACC games (more than most), and people start seeing that as the "mark". Forget the NCAAT.

"hey, we've won more ACC games than any other coach".

Never mind it's a different league and unbalanced schedule... Credit to BB for mastering the "mind trick".



Hey, and I like BB and want him to win... but with our wins this year, missing the dance is inexcusable

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


He made the NCAA's with OP's players


Feb 21, 2016, 2:41 PM

and its been a slow descent ever since it feels like as his mark on the program became THE mark. It is time for him to go preferably before next season. And its called an opinion....

no one is ever a loser. Attaboys all around. 5 years without a postseason but it's fine because we tried super duper hard.

I have mixed feelings about your post. I see your point and I'm happy for the wins we had in January. But we lost a lot of games we should/could have won. I support BB and admire the job he has done. I'm hoping to make the NCAA's myself. Just not the same in the NIT>

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpgringofhonormyfavorange.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I think the OP is trying to say that we were predicted


Feb 22, 2016, 11:33 AM

to be a bottom dweller in the ACC this year, and the team is outperforming the pre-season projections.

I would love to see us get in the NCAA every year, but I don't think it will happen this year...

A deep run in the NIT would be fun to watch if the team doesn't make the NCAA this year.

If making the NIT is exceeding expectations


Feb 22, 2016, 12:22 PM

then we need a coach who will recruit better players. Remember when we used to be pissed when we were a 5 seed in the tourney and lost in the first round? Now we're supposed to be pumped that we were in the first 8 left out of the tourney?
