I'm scared this will make this into another 5 page thread, but you complain when we lose that CRM should be fired, so then we beat an ACC team on national television that nobody thought we'd beat, get a play on sportscenters top plays shown at least 20 times on reruns, etc, and you complain that you'd rather have him lose so he'd be fired. Huh?  And in the words of Herm Edwards, "you play to win the game!" And before I get jumped on for this, no this doesnt mean I think he should get a 5 year extention, it means this is why I wanted to wait and see how we do in conference play.

Its good to see the players win on national TV.Mattis played out of his shorts and it seemed like we dominated on the boards all game. The only player on wake that could do anything against us was the wanna be "big country" in the middle. We had their offense look out of sync all game. Even when they made their little comeback we hit big shots when we needed to and yes we did hit free throws unlike the greenburg teams. Its good to see us win against a name brand and respectable program. It has been a while since we won a meaningful game, and I hope we can keep it up. Good job mac.

Because before this year they werent in a conference!!! You also didnt address my point about Richmond but I digress. This isnt about the previous year of the program, its been bad with some bad losses. However, the team is certainly improved and last night is a big stepping stone. Yes Wake is in transition but theyre hardly what I'd call a horrible team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets see if it carries over to Big East play. I got a little nervous, thought they were going to blow it when it got down to 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good then you admit that UNLV/TAMCC/UAB/MissSt are not bad losses.You have to admit that if you say that name doesn't matter, only qualitymatters... all 4 of them are heads and toes above Wake this year, and all 4 will be in the tournament this year, in all likelyhood, uab being the one question mark.I'm glad you cleared that up FL... you are finally seeing the light that we aren't as bad as you thought.
