Self imploded, no K showing early and often. Capel went to Tatum, Tatum no where near ready. Still time but we need to go to our vets every single play.

This is why the 2015 team was so good. They were so mentally tough, I wasn't afraid when they went down, and they were finishers. This team I'm afraid when we are down 3 points.

I'm hoping we get tougher as the season progresses but it just seems like this year is cursed.

LOL our defense is a joke. I've never seen something that bad, I love our guys but we're just not good. Let's keep beating awful teams by 40+ though, gives us some false hope.

How are 4 and 5 * recruits so bad at stopping dribble drive every year???? This aspect of coaching must improve.

It is NOT easy to win on the road in the ACC. Especially when we are going to get every team's best shot. This wasn't a complete disaster tonight. We need to learn from our mistakes and keep working. It's not going to happen overnight

We need to develop our bigs defensively. If we can't stop penetration and disrupt possessions we won't have the year we want

I just don't see anyone ready for the NBA. I understand they draft on potential but against good competition these guys just implode

Hard to not give up when you can't defend anybody...this team can't defend anybody...

Defense travels...and we don't have it...

Maybe wearing that number 0 makes you make terrible decisions?? Austin rivers 2.0 with the difference of having lots of great talent around you

In a game in which we DESPERATELY need size, the fact that Bolden is a non-factor is completely telling of where he's at this season.
