Just lost to a five loss team at home.

Coach K we hardly knew you.

ETA - sorry... Croach K did such a shifty job this season with a #1 team I forgot his real name. Guess he will be in the unemployment line with Howland.

This somehow validates State losing to South Carolina and Ole Miss in your eyes I take it?

I was going to post similar. Fire Coach K. He sucks! I can’t believe he could lose to a 5 loss unranked team.!***

seriously some people need to catch a clue. And many will use last week as an excuse not to show up tomorrow night! I will be there. The worse thing to do is give up on the team.

No one is validating the losses last week. It’s to say that even the best team in the land can lose at home to someone they were suppose to beat by double digits.

The point is is we have a very talented team and too many of you give up at the first slump. This team got better last year at the end of the year. We have enough talent and hopefully will get it rolling, which I bet we do. But the worse thing is to throw in the towel and quit going to the games right now.

Everyone has a bad game from time to time. Get back to me when Duke runs sloppy offensive sets, doesn't value the basketball, and jacks up stupid shots game after game, after game, after game. Our problems aren't based on one game. We do the same stupid stuff consistently. A lot of times, our guys are just good enough athletically to overcome it. This past weekend, they weren't.

This board is borderline unreadable when we lose to Ole Miss at anything (like this past weekend), and it's equally unreadable with the swan lake contingent posting stupid crap like this.

I haven’t given up. But I’m not gonna have my head in the sand and act like everything is all good within our basketball program.

Know you are being facetious here, but Duke really did almost fire Coach K early in his career. I believe it was after he left his 3rd ACC tournament with a blow out opening round loss, he was expecting to be fired.

On the other hand, I think we now have enough data to rule out the possibility that Howland is going to morph into Coach K or vice versa.

The other 3 days of the year, it's pretty damn good though.

And a lot of you assign the giving up tag to realistic posters who call out our negative bs. Hell i wrote that im ok with howland being our coach even though i think hes not very good at it and im still considered a quitter.

Yes. I just wanted to point out that early season loses don’t always prove anything about coaches or players for any team.

This is a good point. Our 1996 final four team had a come to Jesus meeting on the flight home from a road game that was its 4th loss in 5 games (the game was at South Carolina).
