To put it mildly, the Notre Dame basketball team failed to live up to expectations on Wednesday night in Miami. The Irish failed to get anything going offensively and they combined poor shooting with lackluster effort in what turned out to be one of the ugliest losses in recent memory.
Notre Dame’s shooting was largely ice cold, despite a quick start that saw the Irish make 5 of their first 6 shots to rush out to a 13-4 lead at the first media timeout. That, unfortunately, was the lone bright spot for the Irish. On the night, the Irish were only able to connect on 18 of 56 shots from the field for an ice-cold 32%.
