Come on Gamecocks..

As with so many games, the University of South Carolina had its chances on Saturday down the stretch but blew it...and I mean blew it. You don't foul with 2 seconds on the clock! Especially on a 3 pointer! Geez....

During a timeout with 6.1 seconds left, Odom told his team to “man up” and not come off Hansbrough or MSU’s other primary 3-point threats. And do not foul 3-point shooters, although Odom did want someone to foul Jamont Gordon at mid-court. Dwayne Day tried, but no whistle came. Then comes the part were the team does not listen or respond to coaching..... with 1.1 seconds left in regulation, Evka Baniulis fouled Ben Hansbrough on a 3-point shot....oh he is a 76% FT shooter by the way! Just dumb is all I can say....the Gamecocks fell to Mississippi State 61-56!

I think Evka threw the game, between missing his first free throw of the season, and then fouling Hansbrough in the corner witht he clock running out. If I see him driving a Lexus around campus, I am calling in the FBI.
