Turning a corner?

So with 2 straight quality conference wins...could this be the long-awaited inflection point for this young team? With 5 games left on the schedule it'd be great for them to finish strong to springboard into next year. Congrats to Fox and his guys for hanging tough and not giving up through a challenging season.

YOu can not underestimate what these two wins do for the psyche of the players. They now are starting to believe they can win and should win. Look at NC State.....They have given up on the coach and playing as a team. I hate the game schedule keeps me away.
Secondarily winning draws fans....I imagine students and more locals will start to come to games............

Let us hope so. Before worrying about next year, let's see if it can be a springboard into the conference tournament.

I have to admit, I've been very negative about this team to the point of indifference. I've been a "wake me up in 2019 when he have a new coach and different players" guy.
I watched last night and the team looked good. Talented and well coached. We might not have a post-season, but at least they've reengaged one fan. (Me)

and we're a VERY young team. The fact that a team with this much youth is able to persevere through this type of season shows that they have character. I feel like Good, Robinson, Shabazz, Logan, etc. along with a few more prized recruits bode well for our future.

Two really big wins for a very young team. Let's hope they can keep things going forward and make a little noise to end the season and at tourney time.

The remaining games are all winnable. It will be interesting to see how they finish after these two big wins.

With the next two games in Alabama against winnable teams, we will hopefully see the confidence gained from these two wins on display. With a 1-12 road record, this is the perfect chance to begin the process of figuring out how to do the same thing away from home.
