But I'm glad your focus is on Duke. It's important to have an outlet to get through the pain.

Duke loses ACC road games every January. I'll save the panic for February. If Jeremy Roach keeps improving like he has, we'll be fine. Not a contender this year, not a top 4 seed realistically, but a tournament team-- and one with enough raw talent that if it clicks could be dangerous. Stop taking stupid jump shots, and we'll start winning games.

And if we don't, then whatever, it's Gonzaga or Baylor this year anyway, lol. Hard for me to care about first round vs. elite eight exits in a year when I think we have zero chance to beat the best teams in the country. Is what it is. Focus on developing the young guys, bring a bunch back to play with Griffin, Banchero, and Baldwin (and Keels, maybe), and have a fucking incredibly dangerous squad in a hopefully normal and vaccinated season next year.

But hey, maybe Maryland can get hot and win the NIT this year? Anything is possible!
