We are just two games into the 2017-18 Wake Forest basketball season and many fans are (rightfully) asking for a re-do. The Deacs find itself 0-2 for the first time since 1979-80, and those losses were to N.C. State and Duke as opposed to Georgia Southern and Liberty.
As I touched on last night in the recap, it’s not just that the Deacs are losing to teams like Georgia Southern and Liberty, but it’s also the manner in which the team is managing to lose.
The shots aren’t falling, there is little to no on-ball defense, the desire and want to rebound is hauntingly lacking, and there is little resemblance of the offense that ranked top ten nationally just a season ago.
