Wofftard aka Flop-fford vs. Furman (Larsen stop flopping son)

[apaladin]

Agree. It would be one thing if the last 3 teams played really well and they were just better that particular game. In every game it looked like we were pressing, not comfortable or whatever you want to call it. Felt like every one of them were asking FU to win but we said no thanks. Even in the end all we had to do was take the game but couldn’t do it. Seems like we have lost all confidence except JS and MB.
UNCG-One point lead with 30 seconds left. Get outscored 3-0 from the free throw line.
ETSU- Take a one point lead with 5 plus to go and go scoreless for 5 minutes.
UTC- They score 20 points in the first half, should have been up 15-20 instead of 7. Tied late and again don’t finish.
Nine of the 10 losses were winnable late but not finishing has been a problem all year. We did finish a few but the non-finishing outweighed those finishes heavily. We should already have 20+ wins. 20 wins should have been a given and now it is in jeopardy. Oh well It is what it is.

Yes troubling when you consider the way the last 2 games of last season ended, had shot at one seed and blew it at Wofford because could not get a rebound, and had huge lead vs. VMI in tourney only to blow it.

I am darn near sick of it
Its put up or shut up time as far as I am concerned

It’s shut up time (if you mean shut up talking about how great we are), as far as I am concerned.

Will there be a senior day Saturday? Thought they would have had it this past Saturday. Wonder if JS and MB will be introduced as seniors?

Good question

[Davemeister]

3 Good Questions:

#1 - Will we have a 20-W season? Some might say this is meaningless, but it's a good benchmark for how a program is doing.

#2 - Will we win the Tourney? In baseball lingo, we're "about due."

#3 - Will JS and/or MB return for another season at Furman? Could be a real game-changer.

3 huge questions indeed

3 weeks from now we will know our fate

[apaladin]

Yep 3 huge questions. They are having senior day at 11:45 Saturday. We may know the answer to #3 then. No “could be” to #3, that would be a huge positive.
