Georgia, Sun., Nov. 24, 11am, CBSSN

Although I thought we should win, 3 games in 4 days I think is worse. This was the game I was worried about the most.
Easy to say now, and I didn’t say it ahead of time but this was not smart scheduling. Folks I talked to yesterday from Tennessee were very surprised we had a game this morning. I am not the type to project the future based on the past, or honestly to project it at all. Except to say it is November.

There was no energy in the building, only a fraction of the SJU fans that were there for the first two games attended. We couldn’t cheer even when we wanted to as Atlantis was constantly blaring music at levels we could not exceed.

And they played badly, they deserved to lose, and they lost. Even if they had won it felt like a waste of money when those of us down here could have been at the beach. A lesson learned.

The season will continue.
 

How could Georgia have “wanted it more”? This team has proven nothing to date except that they can beat way weaker teams. And for all the drama Queens out there, no one is turning on the team we are all a bit disappointed and concerned especially after the rejection from the tourney committee last year. I’m sure as upset we all may be we all hope for a turnaround and much success.
 
I would say… more talent in the starting rotation but at this point not in the depth pieces. And no one on this team compares to Danis Jenkins IMO. Perhaps more depth pieces will surface but today demonstrated it was not available.
To date I would take Jenkins over Richmond who has been a total BUST!
Substitutions STINK! Dunlap should not have played....period! Withholding Smith could be demoralizing to the kid.
That said, shooting the trey was horrific and Pitino should have brought the offense closer to the basket.
I guarantee you Repole is not happy with his investment thus far! College basketball is now a business and between Pitino's poor game management and a disaster in Richmond, I think coach better have less teaching examples DURING crunch time.

I think they were tired, but then you have to ask Rick why he scheduled this game (let alone a “hard” two hour practice the day before). Atlantis had a women’s tournament right after, so there was no flexibility in moving the game up. It’s inexcusable either way
 
Guys who were there, any description on the kadary TO for the pick 6 once we went up 3?
 
More talent across the board (and on the bench) this season. I'm annoyed by 2-19 and other things today, but we'll be fine.
What do you mean by fine? Where are our signature wins coming from now? Our opportunities are limited now. I don’t know if Creighton will stay ranked as they got beat at home by Nebraska this weekend. Maybe Xavier winds up ranked. But basically you’re talking about UConn and Marquette now that’s it. That’s four games of which we’ll probably have to go 3-1 in now and have 13 or 14 wins in conference to not be on the bubble at the end of the season. That’s a tough hill to climb.
 
I don't post at all, but appreciate all the knowledge and passion on the board. Graduated in '67, so I have seen a lot of BB...some great teams and some not so good teams. Why is Richmond on the floor in crunch time, why are we not pounding the ball inside to Zuby or isolate Luis to go one on one.
The highlight of 2025 may be Louie's 100th birthday....sigh
 
Not a banner day, but (even as a long-time poster) I'm surprised at the level of outrage here.

Perfectly predictable banana peel in our path today. Lose a close one, rebound with a bounce back win, then let down game is a standard script.

We're seven games in – too soon to make any judgement on chemistry or how we'll look in February. Just have to dust off and get back at it.
Louder for the people the Back! lol

was at an Event during the game... checked the score... saw the low scoring and knew it was prob an ugly game... and was dissapointed.

But fellas... cmon... most you guys are negative nancy pu$$ies lol.... sky is falling / season over attitude.... stop.

The Georgia team you guys are shitting on- the were down 3 under 5 to Marquette yesterday- Marq who will def be Top 10 maybe Top 7 tomorrow...

We shot 30%... and 2-18!!!! 2 of freaking 18 from 3!!!.... i dont care who we play... we arent gonna win many shooting like that.

it was an OFF game... thats it. Have a good day.
