Another dumpster fire of a season.

Mike White sucks. He can recruit but he is not a good coach. There is zero reason Cyril should not be playing 20+ minutes.

The analytics are clear by this point. Push the pace, because the best shot you'll get on a possession is most often one when the defense is not set yet. Run after made baskets. Run after missed shots

Instead MIke White still coaches dinosaur basketball.

Let's half-arse the ball up the court and get into our genius sets and let Demery run the offense. But the sets aren't genius and Demery is too passive. And then we just pass around the perimeter and fart around until 10 second left on the shot clock, and then one of our guys will either dribble the ball off their foot in desperation or heave one at the basket with the shot clock expiring.

Any half-arse basketball coach can coach defense and teach a team how to play defense. Offense is harder. Mike White apparently is too dense to figure out offense. We have 15 assistant coaches in shiny quarter zips, but we're still retarded on offense.

If a coach refuses to change with the times or isn't smart enough to figure out an offense, throw him in the trash can and let's try one

He ain't getting fired after this season. Maybe if they lose out.

Sounds like White needs to hire an up and coming OC.

MW in the month of Feb is 4-17…. with a game against florida and auburn left. It sounds more like we catch people early and as they improve, we regress and get left behind.

More like we had a moderately easy OOC schedule and the SEC is an absolute bitch this year that will likely see 12 or 13 teams in the dance this year. If you look at our schedule, it was absolutely brutal. Should’ve won 1 or 2 more games that got away from us, but we are much improved and still have a good chance of dancing if we take care of business at the end of the season and win 1 or 2 in the SECT

Bingo. Draymond Green lamented this earlier in the week. Basketball is all running and shooting 3’s now instead of the slower physical style he prefers that basketball used to be. But that’s the game now, and if you don’t adapt, you get blown out.

More turnovers into fast break layups.

Cain takes a contested shot instead of passing to ASA.

Asa is 8/9 and hasn't taken the most shots.


All signs of an extremely poorly coached team.

Boy your tune sure has dropped since last week. Your delusion is catching up.

? I’ve been saying all along we just need to win our 2 easy games left and 1 or 2 in SECT for a long time? What has changed? I’m pretty sure you could go back to towards the end of our OOC play and I called out our tough arse schedule and how our fan base would turn on this team, but that we were a serious bubble contender…

You’ve been hanging onto hope all along, saying ‘if’ a lot. Having hope can be used for anything, and while I appreciate your optimism, the reality is we suck at basketball. I stated last week that we weren’t making the tourney and got downvoted, so you’re not the only one holding out hope. Be prepared for disappointment.

They all look at Georgia as an easy game, too.

What team with a 4-9 conference record can say such a thing?

One that has 8 of those losses vs top 20 ranked teams including 2 with a possession at the end to tie or win and a road loss vs a hot team when leading by 15.

You act like we have losses vs Q2, Q3 or Q4 teams…

We still have a NET of 38. Yes, we will likely lose our next 2 vs Auburn and Florida, as expected, then our road to the dance begins

You think if we end 20-14 after SECT games, we get left out? With NO losses to teams not in the tournament?

This is what I said before the season got going

quote:

finish with 18/19 wins going into SECT, that would put us on the favorable side of the bubble.


I still think that is fairly accurate. Then win 1 maybe 2 in SECT and we are in.

You said 1 thing in this thread about our shite court or something, otherwise didn’t say anything until you thought we were shite. I get it. You are a pessimistic, fair weather sidewalk Dawg, that enjoy shitting on our programs unless we are winning championships in every sport. Enjoy that.

I enjoy watching UGA sports a rooting for them, while being mostly realistic in expectations. I don’t shite on our team and then be top fan just win their in NC contention. To each their own I guess
