That’s the way it works, right? Up 6 with :44 to play. Dunn fouls a three point shooter Virginia can’t shoot free throws. State gets two chances in the last 10 seconds to hit a three pointer and no foul Overtime Has Bennett lost it?

All of those missed free throws were all Tony Bennett’s fault

I agree. He evidently doesn’t practice enough. Been horrendous all year.

It actually is. They should be double teaming DJ burns. Nc st hasn’t been a threat from behind the arc.. except for the tying shot

Why would you not foul up by three? Right?

No one should try to compare Bennett and Brad in post-season play and championships.

But shouldn’t they have fouled up three, regardless of history? Bad coaching, right?

Precisely, why give them a shot if it could be avoided. And without any penalty in reality.
Three fouls to give would have easily burned up the time left on the clock.
They gave them an opportunity to win, and to their credit(NCSU’s), they took advantage.

Fouling to protect a lead should take place when shot clock is off and when the leading team is the better free throw shooting team. In this scenario I believe NC State took possession at the far end of the court with 6 seconds left. The real question is what are the percentages of a made three scrambling the court versus fouling and allowing the opposing team to potentially run a set a play. If I’m being honest I have no idea, and it would just be my gut that says letting them scramble down the court is probably a lower odds scenario. But I’m not about to die on that hill.

Free throw was missed with 5.3 seconds left I beleive. O ‘Connell dribbled the length of the floor unmolested and McNeely pretty much just watched him… with only the one foul. Bennett just watched him run by too without a word. He trusted his defense and O’Connell made them pay.
Bennett is a great coach! We’d be lucky to have him, but I believe he quit coaching for that short amount of time last night. And yeah, it burned them. Left it to chance.

Absolutely! The man cannot coach a lick. 5 Different National Coaching awards in his 15 years with the Hoos, one National Championship, somehow they always win whether they have players or not. The answer to your question is Yes. Everything is all his fault. The missed free throws, the horrible Pep Band, working his players to death at practice, playing shutdown defense for 15 years, not allowing players to miss practices for hangnails, bad colds and skin rashes........all his fault and a sure sign of poor coaching!
