Allegedly I yelled out in anger cause the game went into overtime and I had to watch more of that game.

Granger's updates were great haha, thank you sir.

Bummed to hear that the bar is a VIP section. I bought tickets to the VT game in February during the preseason for a joint men's bball/hockey Saturday during the preseason when my enthusiasm for the Men's squad was high, which has since been greatly diminished.

Got my hopes up there was a bar open to the public. Enthusiasm once again shattered.

Ushers didnt seem to be stopping anyone from coming up at halftime to get beer.

Pretty simple…if they can’t hit 3s from start to finish, they aren’t going to win. They get killed in the paint. Blew a 12-pt lead and, not coincidentally; missed all their wide open 3s during that span. Pitiful.

hit 40.5% on the three's tonight. So this year's version of the irish doesn't even follow the "live by the three" adage of Brey's teams. They'll hit threes and still lose. No post defense. None. Its a wonder teams even try to shoot over us. Anyone with a big man who has any skill at all will have his way with us inside.

the collapse in the second half after having a 12 pt lead was hard to watch but not a surprise with the way the team has played most of the year. hoping enough alumni with big pockets force Jack to make coach Brey retire at the end of the season. love what Brey did for the program for several years but this will be 4 out of 5 seasons if i'm correct that we won't make the ncaa tournament

Right but they went ice cold in the latter part of the 2H. Had they hit the wide open threes SU gave them, they would’ve won. You’re correct about the lack of a post D. Not sure what Brey is thinking. Gotta think Starling will leave after this year.

It’s not a matter of money. There’s only 1 or 2 years left on his contract. He’ll get that. But Brey’s been adamant; he’s not leaving on his own. So unless he changes his tune Jack has to buck up and can him. Does he have the courage?

Most people “in the know “ think Jack will take the easy way out.

I'd like to pull a Tommy Rees here and say to Brey- "do your F'ing job."

At one point late in the game yesterday Brey sat down on the bench and looked tired, I wish Brey would step down.

Brey can’t coach his way out of this one. He failed at getting a big that would be ready to play big minutes this year.

Hot start against 5-13 Florida State. Irish have missed 4 relatively uncontested lay ups and are down 13-0.

I feel like this goes without saying at this point but this team is not good. More like bad.

Time for Brey to retire from coaching and take a cush job in the athletic administration.

He obviously does not have it anymore. Unfortunately, he is leaving the cupboard bare, with a few exceptions. The graduate students have never gotten significantly better than they were as freshman.

My official slogan is “Don’t Stay With Brey”.

Great guy but we need a change.

Which makes no sense unless Paul Atkinson was the most underrated player in the entire country and possibly ND history, as he's the only major piece we lost last season.

I think Brey has lost his touch and this whole team just lost any sense of identity. It's all between the ears for this group.
