As much as I may have **** on DD this past season, he was a few missed field goals away from being one of the top 3 teams in the division, including beating the eventual national champions. At some point, players just have to make plays. Had they done so, we'd likely have beaten ECU, Clemson, and FSU.

Frustrating but there's no way they weren't looking ahead on the schedule to this one.

That said, no reason they should have blown that lead against OU EVER.

Starting to think this might be the year Gonzaga finally makes it to the Final 4. Someone talk me out of it before I stupidly put down money on this.

Cya Gott. You can't have top 2/3 talent in the ACC and do this. You need the pedigree of a K or Izzo to get these primadonnas to respect you. Well, and the ability to actually coach.

2/3 is a little strong, but I get your drift. No way 3-7 in the ACC is acceptable. It's like he says, tho. You can preach and coach and preach some more, and at some point the players have to be accountable for the horrendous defense.

I'm not privy to anything re. the Wolfpack, by all accounts do they all get along?

Gottfried took them to 2 sweet sixteen in a 4 year span. Ncaa tourney all but one year in the toughest conference in bball.

You fire him for that, who would be willing to come here?
