2023-24 49er MBB Game #9 Charlotte @ #22 Duke 12/9 2:15 PM The CW

Win a damn conference tournament first round game and that’s one better than Ron ever did…sign him to a long term contract then!!

Seriously, though, losses aside, I’ve been pleased so far…dealt a tough hand and yet the team plays hard and will hopefully be middle of the pack in the AAC, which would be a decent season under the circumstances.

No. Losing a close game to a good team should not get you a contract extension. Aim higher

Today is going to be really interesting. Fearne has 2 hands tied behind his back and is still doing good things. I feel he would have probably recruited differently as head coach and I’m betting we would have had a shot at keeping Williams. Then you also have to wonder how many on the staff does he want to keep?

For me a close loss or a drubbing doesn’t matter today. It’s gonna be about the body of work.

If we hang with duke today that’s progress. For a player you never want to be happy with a loss. But for fans a close loss can absolutely show a team growing and learning and we can be happy about that vs a team that is and basically always has been out of our league every time we have played.

They think that since we are playing against an ACC team, we schedule like an ACC team. Today is, of course, our first true road game.

As an aside, has anyone noticed that about 40% of our conference games are either on ESPN2 or ESPNU?

Thats an enormous upgrade from CUSA. A few years ago I would have despaired of ever getting that kind of exposure again.

vs SMU ESPN2
@ UTSA ESPNU
@ Tulane ESPNU
vs ECU ESPNU
@ USF ESPNU
@ Tulsa ESPNU
vs Wichita State (ESPNU or ESPN2)

clt is excited to be on the CW! we have arrived as a program

From my recollection of their ads for upcoming games (football and hoops), they are carrying almost exclusively contests that the ACC has a 90% chance of winning against non conference teams. I’m not excited at all to be a part of the pumping up of that sorry ass conference.

Folkes not dressed?

Matt’s audio on ESPN 730 pregame not very good. Nothing wrong with the commercials, though!

Yep, no Folkes today. Sprained ankle.
