[QUOTE="Deleted member 631370, post: 1353410"] No doubt -- for the first time in a long time, I'm not angry at the head coach after a bad loss. And I won't be angry at BU when we're sitting at 6-3 on Sunday night wondering how we lost 3 games in 1 week. A combination of factors really screwed us here. One, we have way too many holes in this roster -- especially the front court. Alstork isn't really stepping up the way we need him to in order to be an NCAA tournament team. And as much as I love the freshmen, they're not the kind of talents to come in, dominate, and carry a team. Second, this schedule is just pathetic. Shame on whoever put this steaming pile together, because it did us absolutely no favors. We can't wait until game #7 to play a team with a pulse. The rest of the conference is getting tested ahead of conference play, and here we are heading into the NW and Maryland games with virtually no experience against a real team. Third, well, the stars aligned against us last night. It happens. [/QUOTE]
