In what regard? The only coaching problem we have this season is we REFUSED to recruit a true pg and it's absolutely killed our team. Right not Virginia tech is playing out of their minds but we're still in it. The team just doesn't have anyone to run an offense. Doesn't help that Luke is the only one who can create his own shot
I said every aspect. Lineup, offensive plan, defensive plan, motivation, development, zone coaching, fast break defense, passing, use of timeouts. It's all pathetic. Did I miss any?

I think we need to start to temper our expectations for this team as fans, I'm sorry guys but I see horrible body language, no buy in and even more concerning no closer to getting any sort of chemistry.

Man, this team just doesn't play well together. K can fix any on court issue. I'm afraid we're seeing a product of bad chemistry!!

I have no problem with Tatums shot selection.
Amile needs to quit Fing whining and man the F up in the post.

Wow. I'm thinking we get beat handily by most of the top 15 teams in the country at this point. Amile has completely disappeared and so has his leadership. Very disappointed.

Got to give it Jones I've harshly criticized him this season but he's stepping up in his leadership role this game.

You just need jack white to come in to show these premadonna's what it was like to play basketball, before their heads couldn't fit in the arena.

We're not playing well, but we got a chance to slice this lead down a little before half. Plenty of time left to make a game of it.

Agree, I am sick of watching Jefferson whine after every play!

During the stretch that made us down 15 why didn't K call a timeout. You could tell the crowd was in it and it was getting out of hand. I know we were close to the 4 min tv timeout but come on it was needed desperately.

Duke will loose this game.
Va tech will let Luke score forty if the other four players don't score at all.
We have no size to be honest and that's because we have no rotation.
I agree we should really take down the expectations for this team this year.
Duke just has no true lineup or chemistry.

Duke has a game like this almost every year, it's not the last game if the season. It's frustrating with the expectations the team had coming in, but a lot of adversity has happened early.

I don't even know what to think. After watching this half we don't have one guy that deserves to be a top 5 pick in the league.

Taking up for K here, he called a time out even took off his coat how did that go for the players?
Just because you coach it don't mean the players take what you say to the court.

I hate Calipari but at least he gets his kids to buy in year after year.

Love K, but am starting to wonder how many top-2 recruiting classes is he going to turn to crap....This is sad how crappy they look.

Very well said. There are a lot of issues and they are becoming more and more visible.

Why wouldn't you post Tatum?
Why is matt shooting?
What happened to amile?
Why isn't frank attacking when in?


Terrible team, terrible coaching, long ways to go to be a contender.
