Our Lack of Defense…..

….. is what beat us tonight. We gave them the baseline. We allowed straight line drives. Sheesh? With 6 seconds left and our opponent throwing into the backcourt, they still scored. You will have bad shooting nights, but defense can carry you through that. Our defense has to improve.

This team (other than the Miami game) has been really poor defensively. It bit them in the rear tonight. If I had to guess, without looking, I bet UNCW scored on 8 out of their last 10 possessions or so. Our boys couldn't get a stop.

Cal said three things killed us. Allowing straight line drives, not passing the ball like we have been and missing inside and outside shots.

Yep, once shots stop falling defense starts looking bad too.

Same old same old No. 1 recruiting class being beaten by a team like this at HOME.

This was a TEAM loss. All players and coaches had a part in it. To single out only 2 players is really not fair.

They were also just quicker with a better shot tonight...Lead to us losing!!

If only he knew how to do something about it.

CAL LOOKS LOST.

One of Edwards or Thiero had to be able to guard White and neither could. If we could’ve slowed him down after regaining control/the lead we escape with a win no doubt in my mind.
