nice to finish the season with a win - defense improved
Ugly? Yes.
Proud? He’ll Yeah!!!
This is how we had to play all season - great defense and rebound - and we lost out way for a stretch. We won despite shooting 1-14 from 3pt and 30% from the field. This is your 2012-2013 Charlotte 49ers!!
great win
We are a tournament team again!!!
So after tie breakers and such we finish as what seed for a10 tourney??
Yet another 20 point loss in the worst collapse in niner history. None of our players deserve scholarships, can’t believe we missed the conference tournament 3 years in a row. Fire Major.
Worst team ever. Can’t believe we support this.
8-9 game vs. Richmond it looks like
happy we won. happy i took the night off from going to halton. I just didn’t feel like risking walking out of halton pissed off again - much nicer, relaxing night out with the family. failure to make the A10 tourny would have been awful. our offense is so hard to watch i turned off the feed after i got in from dinner and just watched the gametracker on espn. I thought we would go 2-2 the last four games was wrong about dayton and joes. im just going to keep expectations low so i can be happy no matter the result
Happy we won and happy we are going to Brooklyn. 20-10 is nice as is 12-3 at Halton. Baby steps.
Hopefully we show up in Brooklyn and give whoever we play a tough close game. A blowout loss would put a damper on the nice little 2 game winning streak we put together to save our season.
8-9 game vs. Richmond it looks like[/quote] Likely as the 9 seed I think.
Not sure I like facing Richmond, hopefully Brothers doesn’t go off again.
Finish 8-8 in this conference in a really tough year and tied for 8th is pretty good. Not outstanding, but a heck of a lot better than I expected. Hopefully this will help with some of the relentless defeatism around here.
Beating Richmond will def get us into the NIT I think. We may be able to get in with a loss who knows. Let’s just win Thursday to start off the tourney well. We are undefeated in tourney play this year.
Both teams combined were 29 for 94 from the floor. 4-35 from 3. Can’t believe we won shooting 33% from 2 and 8% from 3. We had 11 turnovers in first half and 2 in 2nd half I believe. Huge difference. We were def pressuring the ball very well and switching on def a lot better than recent games.
Ingram another off night shooting. His 3s look good for the most part, just rattles out.
Benk 0-3 from 3. He’s made a huge jump throughout the year I believe. He looks a lot calmer and plays with confidence. I can see him being a huge 3 pt threat for us his next 3 years here.
Interesting team this year and certainly a roller coaster ride. NIT was my initial expectation and I hope we meet that. I feel good about a rematch w Richmond as any other team. Don’t mind playing the 1 seed in Round 2 if we make it that far.
This team is still having issues in getting back after help defense. Coach needs to focus more on this and I’d love to see more press and emulate VCU to a degree.
Great to have a win tonight and what a relief!
Just to follow up on the strength of this conference, the league has 10 teams in the top 100 rpi, and 5 of those are top 50, 3 are top 30 currently. This year’s A10 is similar to the last 2 years of CUSA in terms of conference strength top-to-bottom.
Kind of ironic that this happens again our last year in a conference.
St Joe’s helped us a great deal tonight.
Clayton’s foot injury is getting better and I think that has a lot to do with his and the team’s improved play this game.
Those refs were not good, but the game was called in a style (not many foul calls) that helps our game.
Old timer walking out behind me at end of game said this is the worst college
Game he has seen in 20 years.
