2024 ACC Tournament

[Mike_S]

The key play IMO was the foul on McGlockton after the 3 point shot. Tough call, gave them 3 free throws (2 points), and worst significantly hurt the defense and rebounding for the rest of the game.

Defense and rebounding was otherwise incredible. Couldn't get a good shot for the last 3 minutes of regulation or OT and that was the game.

Love the style, not unlike Virginia's. Every possession feels like it's critical. Can really work great when the offense is doing something.

Hope Grant can get a couple more players for next year and build on it.

What a game! Hell of an ACC tournament. Maybe next year guys.

This is just what shitty not gritty wants you to think. This is an 11/12 ACC wins basketball team that pretended it was a significant underdog until they absolutely had to win the entire ACC tournament to make it

If they don’t make the NIT, I’ve lost all respect (lol!) for that tournament

well, ok

its not worthy of any respect. NIT means Not In Tournament.

I hate to be scalding about your positivity. There’s nothing wrong with this loss in isolation. Extrapolating this acc tourney effort and giving it to the whole season, we are probably hoping for a 10/11 seed on Sunday. It’s been too long to let BC coaches/admin off the hook to me. I’ll let you do you

No I understand. I gave up on Earl Grant quite a while ago. Of course it is far too long to let BC coaches and admin off the hook. I agree with you.

That said, it was a hell of a game.

That was a terrible fucking basketball game by any measure. You're drunk. BC had 2 points over a period of 10 minutes. Turo that.

You're drunk.

You're funny.

bad combo of terrible offense, no legs and uva impressively not committing a single foul for what 12 minutes of game time?

avoid the tuesday special

It's this. If you want to stop losing you legs on Thursday, stop playing on Tuesday.

Earl needs to clean out a bunch of this roster (Chas & Prince are two who actively hurt BC this year) and a bunch of the coaches next year to avoid a complete bottom out in Year 4. You're getting nothing out of either of those '24 recruits. The bottom 3 teams don't even make the ACC Tournament next year, so I'd strongly advise taking the games in December/January a little more seriously. This peaking in March philosophy works fine at CoC, but doesn't work in the ACC.

I'd grade this season a C+, but can't go any higher than that.

I also thought the officiating was bad and really one sided. UVA committed no less than 100 moving screens and zero of them were called. The one over the back foul where a kid climbed up JZ like he was a tree was ridiculous.

This NIT bracketology site has us as a 7 seed as of today. Memphis has declined an NIT spot, I’m sure they won’t be the only ones either.

fair assessment

I don't honestly think I gave Earl much of a chance when he became the coach because his hiring was entirely #Woke. So right off the bat, I thought nothing of him. But he's been here 3 years now I guess and after that amount of time, I look forward to the ACC tourney because the team plays its best during those games (UVa was probably the second toughest team on BC"s schedule of what was 34 teams) and that is about it. I hear some of you say that this 8-ACC-win team should have won 11 or even 12 with this talent, but I just don't see it. I think the problem is a problem Al Skinner never had; recruiting. But Earl is here and he's not leaving so a C+ is fine by me but that just means D- for talent and A- for effort during the ACC tourney means a C+ for the year for Earl as a HC.

The problem with Don and JC is that in Year 4 they just completely bottomed-out with terrible years. BC has the basketball facility, NIL $ and resources to help avoid this similar fate. This year's team was the best BC team since like 2010 which shows you how rough the last 15 years have been.

I think you're going to see a lot of transfers and roster-turnover so Earl better be ready to hit the transfer portal hard.

This NIT bracketology site has us as a 7 seed as of today. Memphis has declined an NIT spot, I’m sure they won’t be the only ones either.

Princeton just took an NIT slot.

It was an interesting game to watch Princeton vs Brown. Very confusing how they won 24 games.

English is a very good coach, not sure how motivated they’d be
