Other Games 24-25 Season

If you think this board is bad from mild criticism of Jon's late game play calling Inside Carolina has a thread titled "Head Coach Needed." They even called Davis a clown. Yikes. Most seem fairly done with him. I think they will make the tournament, but if they don't that seat will get hot. Seems like their failure to get a portal big will be their undoing; at least so far.

This board is overly critical of Jon. It takes time to build a team. By March, we’ll have a formidable group. I’m pleased with the team’s progress so far, though they’re not perfect. The building blocks are there. The doom and gloom displayed here during game threads is over the top.

UNC @ Chapel Hill lacks bigs, and that’s not something you can just acquire during the season. They’ll struggle against good teams.
 
We may be a formidable group by March. We may not. Right now we seem Elite Eight ish. It remains to be seen. The fact that we have a brand new team is the big question mark. Whether it comes together remains to be seen. Glass half full or empty cannot be determined yet. We shall see. Beat older experienced teams when it counts and I will be convinced. Saying "we will become an elite team" or "we are too young to make a deep run" is TBD.

Most teams in college basketball are dealing with brand-new teams. This is normal now. To pretend otherwise is burying your head in the sand.

Duke has fantastic freshmen mixed with veteran role players. To pretend like this team isn’t going to be good in March is…weak for lack of a better word.

It’s very easy to bet the field and win every year. I, on the other hand, really like this group of Duke players. I’m eager to watch how this season plays out.
