Well, that certainly sucked!

It's awfully tough to beat anybody that shoots as high a percentage as Temple did tonight. But, when you assist them by being as careless with your possessions as Duke was, you end up with what was seen in this contest. The Devils wear black, play like that...you deserve to lose.

Austin dribbles the ball far too high when driving through the lane.

Temple did a great job of exploiting nearly every mistake we made, while making relatively few of their own. Seth in particular looked really off last night (from even before the game started, when he came out of the tunnel way before the rest of the team); no idea whether he's sick (it is cold and flu season, after all), or just had one of those random bad nights, but it was painful to watch. At least Mason (after a slow start) and Miles had a good game. Game plan: Get it to a Plumlee!

The staff also had an “incredibly emotional” meeting last night after the team returned to Durham, and another one before practice.
I bet the plane ride home sucked.

Good for Coach! 3 a day practices.... good!

Because when the Devils go down to Georgia............ its ACC league play!!!

The Temple loss was unexcusable. The kids were fully rested and have more talent than Temple. They werent playing Col State or W Mich on the road.

3 practices a day........... good! I know these boys will Not forget the Temple Loss.
