LIVE... FROM CAM'S CAR!! With the quick bounce from the ACC tourney and the choice to opt-out of the NIT, Cuse's season has come to an end. So far, there have been three departures from the program, could any more be coming? How did everyone progress? What do we think of Coach Red in his first season?
It's postseason time Cuse fans! The ACC Tourney, something that historically we haven't had much success in. Now, it's time for another crack at it to save our March Madness chances. What does a run to the championship look like? Why is the ACC getting no love?
Two games away from the ACC Tourney, the boys are on a high after a three game win streak. Judah puts on a hell of a performance in what could be his last dome game. That said, there is still plenty of season left. What do they boys have to do to make the big dance? What is in store for the rest of the regular season?
