No Duke thread?

Down 13-10 at the under 12 time out. They are killing us on the offensive boards and have hit three 3s (I believe), but we have four points from Jekiri and Kirk and a fastbreak dunk from Kelly. No shots for our guards so far.

 

[Kirijax]

Down 17-10 now. If Duke keeps hitting their 3s it's going to be a long night.

COACH L IS THAT *****

Plenty of Duke threads on the football board.

Miami wants so desperately to be Duke. But as we can see Miami is not Duke. **** this obsession with trying to be a basketball nerd school. Hope Donna is watching her dream continue to fail.

Down by 12 at the half. Gonna be hard to climb out of that. 2013 it ain't.

 

[CTCANE]

First game all season we are getting blown out. Pretty impressive considering the lack of firepower on this team.

 

[Miami04]

All we can hope is to keep it close. 2015 is our year

 

[joshdacane]

We just don't have the horses. The kids are trying though.

Don't have a chance if Brown plays his worst game of the season (which he did). Hopefully they can give Syracuse a game on Saturday.

 

[Kirijax]

Well, that wasn't pretty. Vitale slobbered all over himself with glee. Next year will be different.

If we didn't have Coach L this team would be a real train wreck.

Can we keep this kind of talk off the basketball board? Most of us here, you know, like basketball and want to see the school succeed at the sport (not saying that we can't be good at football, too -- there's no reason why we can't do both).

Rough game today... there's only so much we can do with our lack of firepower. If our guards have poor offensive nights -- and Brown and Manu certainly did -- it's almost impossible for us to win against a good team. We kept it close for a while, but Duke's talent and ability to make open threes just overwhelmed us.

On a more random note, while everyone knows about Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, D-Wade, James Jones, Shane Battier, and a host of other NBA players who attended the game (Jack McClinton was there, as well!), apparently Kobe decided to stop by a UM business class earlier in the day:

Very cool!

Must suck when schools have to pick one sport to excel in. I mean, no school has have had success in 2 sports in the same year...wait, Louisville did it last year in 4? Florida and Ohio State have done it numerous times?

 

[Kirijax]

I'm greedy. I want Miami to sweep all the sports every year. Being good in one sport doesn't mean you have to sacrifice the other.

Would have shut the BB program down for the second time in 50 years.
