It is hard to pick it much closer than that. Good to see the team playing well.

I guess K actually making use of his bench was too much of a shock to Matt's system. ;-)
I'd certainly miss your wit and wisdom, compadre -- but I can sympathize with needing a break. I know firsthand that there are only so many synonyms for "tannic."

First things first: congratulations to Coach K and his newest coaching milestone. Well deserved. Even Ol' Roy had some kind words... sort of.
As for the game tonight, I know that the competition wasn't quite up there but I thought we played great. Smith and Singler looked like their old-selves; Kelly had some great steals and some very good time on the court; Curry and Dawkins were also really impressive; both Plumlees looked better than they have in the last few games; and the defense was looking quite a bit more organized.
Again, the competition is one thing, but I was quite happy with what I saw. Let's see how we fare against ACC competition, such as it is.
As for our fearless leaders on this site, you guys deserve the break given all you do. I hope you'll rally soon but if not, a huge thanks from this reader and sometimes guest who has a very small appreciation for all you guys do. Merci beaucoup. :)

I understand the passion is not there especially for the non conference games against mid majors. I support any decision you make Matt.
