Poop > Dukes

Seriously, actually dookie is better to watch on your television than our beloved Dukes right now.  There’s just no excuses remaining and no redeeming quality to this squad.  Four minutes into the second half at VCU tonight, the Dukes were down just 45-41 and had us all thinking they just might steal one, or at the least finish off a respectable performance on the road against a tough squad despite the recent struggles.  If you had the unfortunate pleasure of walking in from work at about that point in the rare 6:00 start however, you would only get to see the Dukes make a single field goal the rest of the way and you likely would have considered gouging your own eyes out with a spork.  The problems our too many to list, but the utter lack of effort to create good shots and a seemingly ironclad belief in the certainty of their own defeat (and Devon Moore’s hideous shooting) made the blowout loss a foregone conclusion despite the early mirage.

I really wish there was something better to say, but honestly, nothing can be said here except the team appears to have quit on Brady, has zippy confidence, and actually misses Julius Wells.  I’ve harped on Wells’ shot selection for years, but things have gotten so bad that JMU actually misses his irrational confidence and odd ability to make a couple of those terrible shots at just the right time.  Get your first night tickets for the CAA tourney if you want to see the zillionth straight one and done showing from the purple n’ gold!
