1. I am a as big a CBR fan as there is. I believe he made a huge mistake Wednesday night calling off the dogs so early against Citadel. Citadel scored 109 today fueled by their strong finish Wednesday. Regardless of who is playing getting outscored by 24 is not a positive way to end the game. It just seemed to take the winds out of our sails. It carried over to today with the lackluster perfomance. I said Wednesday I hoped that didn’t come back to haunt us and it did.
2. Apparently FU is the only team the UNCG defense bothers. The last 3 games they have given up 76 in a win over ET, given up 85 to Wofford in a 21 point loss, given up 76 in an 11 poInt loss to VMI.
3. Arguably 3 untimely fouls in the last seconds have cost FU 3 games. Fouled a 3 point shooter, up 3 with 7 seconds left, at Belmont lose in OT. Foul a utc player 30 feet from the basket with 7 seconds left and the shot clock at 2 seconds, lose by those 2 free throws. Today foul a non-shooter, 30 seconds left with a one point lead, lose by those freethrows. Makes you want to chew nails. Win those 3 which we prolly should and we would be 20-5.
4. If we had pulled it off today it would have been the greatest comeback in FU history.
5. The last 5 games we were playing lights out. Today we shot liked the lights were off.
6. The ETSU game now is a MUST win since the margin for error ended with today’s loss. A loss Monday will pretty much make the UTC game meaningless as far as the regular season championship goes.
7. Mental toughness. That’s what it comes down to now. A tremendous comeback win in a game by all terms should have been a loss could have catapulted this team to bigger and better things. Getting into that position and then giving it away will be really hard to come back from.
8. Not sure if getting back on the court quickly Monday will be good or bad. We will see.
9. Never a bigger game than the next one and this one is huge. It’s all on the line, crunchtime. Will we finish the season strong or limp to the finish line.
10. We have a great veteran team and a great coach, hoping they respond with guns blazing.
