I can pretty much guarantee there is no team of the 32 left that are saying, “Bring on Duke because we have more talent and are better coached.”

Understand, but dominating the “Sunbelt or whatever” conference we played in is not good preparation for our next 1-5 games. McNeese looks shell-shocked and not prepared for talent/hustle upgrade from Thursday.

I think Clemson has as much talent as Purdue and a lot of other teams in this tournament. But, they laid an egg and McNeese played above their heads. It happens.

Same with Louisville.

UNC had the talent, but not the coaching.

I wonder if McNeese learned how to get really far behind and then dominate enough in the second half to lose by 2…

wade will be a perfect fit for an NC state school!

In all seriousness, I think they're going to like him over there. he seems like a smart guy, and charismatic.

As a State grad, and, therefore, distant supporter, I am.not sure if I like it. I remember when he was at LSU, even before the scandal, he always gave off a whiny, slimy used car salesman vibe. I think he is at least a solid coach that will probably get State back to mid-tier ACC team, but i feel like that is kinda his ceiling. We will see.

it'll come down to whether he can manage the NIL....and if his slimy riz can do that, I think he can do well. Woofie fans tasted success a couple years ago, and it was sweet.

I do think it was a move State needed to make. He should be able to drum up money.

LJ Cryer might not be guardable

I remember Proctor clamping Cryer on a critical possession in last year's S16 game against Houston when we were up by 4. I think our trio of Kon, Sion and Rese match up really well with Uzan, Cryer and Sharp. I'd prefer not to see Houston because of how connected they play, but I think we match up as well as anyone can with them.

Yeah I agree we probably have the best perimeter to match up with Houston, but those shots he was hitting off the dribble are really hard to stop. Our offense is better than Houston’s as long as some guy like Cryer doesn’t become unconscious…
