You can't win if you can't shoot the basketball - and we can't shoot the basketball. There is no one who forces the defense to come out and guard but Brown, and he's not enough. Murphy needs to spend the next six months in the gym working on nothing but the mechanics of his shot. Otherwise, he's a non factor. You can't drive by your defender when he's playing six feet off you because he knows you can't make a 12-foot-and-out shot with enough consistency to hurt you.

The only teams who use COVID as an excuse are the ones who are losing...

Why would teams not losing need an excuse?

Considering we were 3-3 in conference before our Covid vacation, with the losses averaging by around 5 points and 1-7 coming out of it, with the losses averaging by around 18 points, it'd be pretty ignorant to not consider the impact ....

Awesome we were .500 including beating ECU. This team has one maybe two decent players. We were not winning much even with COVID. Sorry but I am not buying anything from this team in terms of “it could have been different” if COVID did not happen.

Not asking you to "buy" anything. Just throwing out some numbers that show there was a difference in our first 6 conference games and our last 8. Was probably just a coincidence that there was a month layoff in between ...

Didn’t you get the memo? Covid is exclusively a USF problem which is peculiar since the thousands of people that visited the super bowl here packed into crowded spaces and used masks sporadically resulted in a whopping 50 cases. Thank G-d we didn’t have an OCS or we probably wouldn’t have gotten to play a single game.
