FSU at noon on Wednesday

We either make the tourney with a win or we shovel dirt on this miserable season.

Going to lose

Something seems badly wrong with this team. I sat close to the bench NC game and the body language and outing and they way they responded to DP was alarming and telling

Could you elaborate on what you saw? I'm curious.

Did you stay for the entire game? Did it look like Adel quit playing the last 2 minutes of the game?

I've seen a few of the kids (mostly the young guys) dancing around, cutting up during timeouts and various things like that during tight undetermined games. Hey, I'm all about the games being fun, but this tells me the atmosphere right now is less than businesslike. And in a way this is a business. You come in against any ACC team taking it like it's a freaking party or something, you go home with a loss. Do it enough and you go home for good. Rodney McCray is not walking through that door anytime soon to set these kids minds right. We are on the verge of a drastic need for culture change if we ever think about getting back to the top.

Call me an insane homer but I really feel the Cards will reflect over the next few days and come to realize they can have another shot at Virginia by beating Florida State AND bring it!

I think this team KNOWS they can play with Virginia and will want another shot. The only way to get it is to beat FSU.

GO CARDS!!!

Good point. I see no team leadership or peer pressure to keep guys in line and focused and I am afraid David is just not forceful enough to do it either. Maybe I have it wrong but I think the players kind of view him as the lenient uncle that comes over to baby sit while mom and dad are gone for the weekend.

It is difficult to be optimistic about this one.

It is going to be a long rebuild,apparently. We did not get "the Death Penalty", but this is going to be pretty close on the rebuild time, it appears.
