South Carolina Preview and Game Thread

[6string]

USC’s perimeter defense is awesome.

 

[BlueHeels02]

Try and make this one close in the second half and then stack some wins before LSU

 

[rogah]

We need to really enjoy KH this year because she’ll be in Columbia or Storrs next year

 

[Dscottp169]

Our best post player is our 6’0” freshman PG, this is pathetic.

 

[2forheels]

Banghart is the modern day Lefty; helluva recruiter but can’t coach a lick

We are incredibly slow. Get beat to every loose ball and rebound. I'm not talking about this game but in CB's career. If you want to compete for national titles year in and year out you need quick players, pure shooters, and 2 really good centers. And you need to run plays not free lance. I'm at the game and SC is incredibly athletic and fast. We look like statues.

And she’s the toughest, has the highest bball IQ, and the most physical player. Geez CB…

 

[Carolina151]

34-17 at half. Gamecock +9 on the boards. Several missed layups late that could’ve cut in the lead. 1-13 from 3…. If we were going to keep it close, needed to shoot 40%+ from deep.

I don't think that's true...I think she stays to play with Carter and Ojo

No she won’t, Dawn doesn’t need her and dad isn’t letting her play for Geno.

Been a black mark on CBs teams since she’s been here.
Trrrible as Chuck would say………

 

[UNC76]

You won't win many games scoring less than a point per minute.

 

[HeadsCarolina]

Looking forward to watching us play South Carolina when we’re on their level. I realize that’s a high bar. But this ain’t a fair fight!

 

[bluebooksandbluecups]

17 points is honestly almost impossible to do. The lack of dynamic playmakers…and honestly athletic players…on the roster is so troubling. Yes, Harpring is going to be really good. But total roster construction leaves a ton to be desired.

 

[3397char]

The Gamecocks defensive pressure is impressive.

they are making nearly everyone on UNC play panicked; just looking for someone to hand it off to because they do not want it.

 

[uman1]

Hopefully we will shoot better in the second half.

 

[6string]

Why is Akot trying to be our playmaker?

 

[kystroup]

Soft

But Ross Martin proclaimed Harpring the best Tar Heel ever.

Yes, she is talented and will be great but such (another) idiotic post from him

 

[TarHeel391]

I get the thinking of wanting to play tough out of confrence competition but if you lose every game the what's the dang point

 

[7milesrivals]

Coach Banghart needs help , it's like our assistant coaches are not contributing to anything at this point

 

[mpaer]

We are not up to Scar standards
We knew that
Fortunately just about nobody else we play is either
Kudos to playing them

 

[kystroup]

I need the upperclassmen to have some pride. Looking like lost puppies waiting cor for Kate to bail them

 

[7milesrivals]

2 games in, it's all good

 

[kystroup]

I don’t think I can watch this.

 

[6string]

Teams led by Freshmen are going to struggle,

The problem is that we didn’t look up to Oklahoma’s standards.

 

[4theHeels19]

We are not a tough group.

That was a horrible mistake. This is a completely new team and you should have started easier and let them build some chemistry

 

[Viking131]

Y'all have at it, I can't!

Smh.....

 

[rogah]

I don't think that's true...I think she stays to play with Carter and Ojo

If her Dad sees that our entire offense is dribble around for 26 seconds and then find someone to heave a prayer, Kate will be gone

 

[3397char]

I know it does not feel like it, but our defense is much improved from the OK game. Offense however…

Not sure what purpose repeated posts like this serve?

 

[GoHeels95]

This is pathetic. Have Carter and Ojo signed yet? Offensive BB is foreign to this coach

 

[7milesrivals]

Yes yes and that is why I don't place all the blame on coach. I mean she has assistance. But we're just in game 2, plenty of time for adjustments

 

[GoHeels95]

Well blitz the likes of Central and Elon but what good is that?

 

[uman1]

SC is on their game. Looks like women vs girls today.

 

[Tar_Heels]

Did not expect to win this one, but the first two games have been sobering. It’ll be interesting to see if Clemson can put up a more respectable performance against UofSC when they play each other soon.

I’d usually agree but we play them almost every year and it’s always the same movie. Would rather build team chemistry against a similar or lesser opponent. The talent gap is too wide and the Heels can’t take much from an embarrassment like this on national tv.

 

[GoHeels95]

Whoever we lost to the portal must have been pretty good because this group can’t shoot or defend.

 

[Dscottp169]

Why is Akot trying to be our playmaker?

Who would you like to do it? KH turns it over, RK too slow against this level of pressure. That’s it, there are no other potential creators!
