App State @ Charlotte 12/11 5:00PM ESPNU

Fire Sanchez. Can’t score in 8-9 minute stretch. What the hell are we paying this guy to do?

You have to be kidding me. We have no idea how to close out a game. I am embarrassed.

So frustrating

Last comment. I hate losing!!!

Garbage. No energy. Going through the motions. Nothing more than an extension of our mr Rogers basketball coach. We’re not Virginia. This experiment, Mike Hill, is over.

Sanchez is so over rated. No fgs for 8 minutes and he never called a time out to draw up a set play. Let’s just pass around the perimeter for 30 seconds and then force up a terrible shot to beat the shot clock…screw us…Apps first ever win in Halton…you could see it coming. I called the late Shepherd turnover before it happened and the App 3 pointer before he even shot it. Our team has zero balls between them, with the exception of Young.

They would be homers if the announcers were going on about our offense. Our defense was what kept us in the game.

The system is a gimmick not real basketball. Play to win the game. Score more points than the other team.

Good game and good luck the rest of the season. And remember though my avatar shoes Boost Mobile I am really pro-Cricket now sine they are part of the unionized ATT

We just lost to both App and ECU in consecutive years. First time in school history.

If you had told me that as a student, I would have hung myself.

Everytime I think we can’t fall any further, we find a way.

But hey, we learned something, and we are happy to be here.

I am so frustrated. Two years in a row we lose to Appalachian. It’s bad enough when we lose to Davidson but Appalachian?

I’m not sure if anyone has asked this yet but how close are we to bring the worst b-ball program in the state?

This is all on coaching. If Sanchez is making these calls, fire his ass. I said to mh wife the entire last 3 minutes why is Shep bringing the ball up the court. He cannot handle the ball, he is a turnover machine. Weak as hell, nonchalant, and is not a good assist man. Young should have had the ball in his hands.

The last few minutes were especially brutal. Supica got an important offensive rebound and was then stripped. Rissetto barreled to the basket against several defenders and committed an offensive foul. The final nail in the coffin was the travel by Shepherd in the last minute.

Matos, Williams and Carrawell had a combined two points.

Matos was awful in the game too…Shepherd and Sanchez were brutal.

Where the hell is Caleb Byrd?

What did Garcia do and how many states must it be illegal in for him to not play?

Why in the hell is Shep bringing the ball up the floor in clutch time?

Do we not have a strength coach worth a darn? Tired of us getting pushed around constantly. Shep is a twig with zero enthusiasm and Sanchez helps enforce that with his attitude.

I don’t like the other team bringing more energy on our home floor. I don’t like that our offence struggles and disappears for very long stretches. but I absolutely HATE losing to programs we once thought inferior that used to be almost a guaranteed win. Cannot lose to App or ECU, especially on home court. Not acceptable. I hope this message is being conveyed to the coach and the team. UNACCEPTABLE sums it up.

Clearly it’s not. As for the teams spirit and enthusiasm, it is Clearly a reflection of the coachs personality. We don’t need a Healy type on the bench but the team shows zero enthusiasm and this hurts us when it comes time to step up late. You need that intensity. We do NOT have it.

I agree, this is totally a reflection of the coach’s personality. Teams do take on the personality of the coaches somewhat.
