DJB can hit a 40 footer under pressure but not a 10 footer. UTC led the whole game until 25 seconds left.
The curse is real, UTC could not hit water if they fell out of a boat today but they hit that BS prayer against us, figures

And now the implosion of the UTC basketball program begins, gone are all those transfer rentals, and maybe gone will be coach and Smith as well

Good chance UTC will be at bottom of SoCon next year with Citadel and WCU

Barkley, Smith, and Kellogg were highly complimentary to Chatty. Said it was the best game of the night and that the Mocs deserved to win that game.

A couple stats. They said Chatty took 65 shots to Illinois 40 something and were only 7-14 from the FT line. How the f does an NCAA tourney team shoot 50% from the FT line? Same reason a world class golfer makes four foot putts all day long until he has to make one to win the Masters and then he gags it.

The bottom line was they played down the stretch like they had never been there before and of course they hadn't. DR was right...they choked just like Kentucky choked last night.

Yep remember utc had a 3 point lead very late and Brown choked the front end of a one and one that wasn’t close that would have gave them a 5 point and a win. They choked no doubt.

Don’t count on it. They will just bring in 10 transfers who can play immediately.

Maybe, but my gut tells me they are going to lose their coach and take a major step back
