Some perspective please. So Fla isn’t THAT bad.

Hoping a couple of our guys in shooting slumps will work their way out of it. Hoping Slawson can turn it around after some shaky performances lately.

I still like this team and the possibilities.

A win against Auburn will make all the difference in how I feel right now.
Thanks for the laugh. Really needed it. After the football debacle it would have been nice to get a win tonight but no. Some really bad basketball and not just the FU end.

Bottom line, after tonight we are ourselves a mediocre team, hard to say where we go from here, I hope we improve, but have a long long way to go to be able to consistently win big games

We have the same problem we always have had over the years: INCONSISTENCY. A starter from say a UNC or Duke will score 25 every night. The Furman player will score 25 points one night and zero the next. I think CBR is a great coach but I just don't think we have the players to get the job done. Alabama and South Florida are so average. Hope in future we will get a great pure shooter. We also need an enforcer inside. A shame Jalen Williams left as I think his bulk would have helped us. I miss the consistency of Rafferty. At this point we do not have a go-to guy.

Can we beat any team in the conference on a given night when the 3's are falling? Sure. But my prediction is 4th in the conference because of our inconsistency. Tonight we just did not execute.

It’s silly to extrapolate from one game but I am concerned. We seem to have regressed after a solid start to the year.

The D is still there but the O is stagnating and making too many silly errors like missed dunks, unforced turnovers and sloppy play. Yes Jalen Slawson, I’m talking to you. Get your head in the game.

On the O side, the last 2 games we are 40-107 (37%) from the field, partly because we are 16-56 (28%) from 3. Yes, 53% of our shots last 2 games have been 3s. That’s way too many, especially when you’re not hitting them.

It’s not an effort thing. Without our D we lose to UTA by 10 and tonite we lose by 20. It’s offensive flow. And Jalen Williams wouldn’t have helped that.

It is very hard being a Furman sports fan at times with regards to the big two-football and basketball. But Furman will always be my team. Hopefully there will be some good times in the future. I personally am less interested in most of the other 18 sports or so.
