Does anyone have patience anymore? Old flame's last post is a great reminder that this program during the layer years was an absolute garbage heap. What was is 86 losses in 4 years? That is just mind-blowing, but it does happen. Also, the pack-line defense has improved our defense over these last 3 years just look at the stats the last two years we have had a top 20 scoring defense in ALL of college basketball!!! Our free throw shooting this year is in the top 10!!! Further, the pack-line defense is like getting a phd at a ivy league school and takes time to see it all work together. Next years defense will be even more smothering. Give it time fellas.
I for one have enjoyed watching the growth and progression of this team. Think about this year for a moment: We beat Wake Forest by 13! We swept Winthrop, We beat Asheville! Yes, there were some games we should've won, but that happens to every team in college basketball. Just ask Duke and Villanova who lost to St. Johns! Or UNC who lost to Wofford. All I am driving at is we need more patience. McKay has us going in the right direction and we are seeing the fruit of his labor year in and year out.
