I live in NC so stayed up late to watch but turned off the game at the end of the first half--not worth losing my sleep. The number of uncontested threes given up were more than terrible--especially from a team whose trade mark is defense. Just nobody guarding the players and same plays over and over again. Four more games (and probable losses) and the season will be mercifully over. Taking Cronin at his word at the post game presser, he will find out which of his existing players wants and is able to play "tough" (I doubt he really will do try-outs) and will need to be taking a hard look at players in the transfer portal and possible recruits. To Dimitri's point, I know most of Cronin's players are young but by the end of the season, they should have matured and I have not seen that; in fact, they have regressed to some degree. Makes me think that if Cronin wants the type of "tough" player he mentioned, it will be from the transfer portal unless he gets a top recruit which is doubtful (most are committed by now and the lack of NIL money) or a diamond in the rough like Clark.

Let this season end however way it ends. Nothing short of a miracle, divine intervention will salvage it. But tomorrow is another day. I have yet to lose hope.
