re: The rest of the bball team needs to take a page out of Hornsby's book.

Yeah, that transcript sucks. Pissed each one of us off last night.

My point is this- Hornsby had been off his game, but he's a good FT shooter (hell, he shot 92% at UNCA). Late in the game, the team was floundering. Mickey was scared of the ball... he "knew" he would miss; but he still got into position and got the shots. Quarterman was tired, but I think he was also trying to score Hornsby's pts too towards the end.

The last few minutes, especially the final minute, should have been a slow offense focused on TQ, Hornsby and Patterson killing clock, and forcing fouls. Not looking for jumpers, not passing into Mickey, but basically demanding that NC St's guards come out and foul them. And Hornsby should have been a primary player in that.
