B-Ball Team Down 43-29 vs UNC

[IrishExpert2288]

Assuming the ND B-Ball team goes down to UNC today. ND will wrap up it's second consecutive losing season of the Shrewsberry Era. The program was in rough shape when he took over, but was it in worse shape than Louisville? It took Pat Kelsey precisely one season to turn a 12-52 program, 4-28 and 8-24 into a 25-6 team that may get a Top 4 seed in the dance and Kelsey won ACC COY.

In looking at Pat Kelsey resume' he was 185-95 at Winthop He won the regular season conference 4x and the Conference tournament 3x he would have have had Winthrop at the Dance 4x in 9 years

College of Charleston 75-27 2x Conference Champ and the Dance 2x in 3 years,

Shrewsberry in 2 years at Penn State and 2 years at ND he is 65-69 (with a loss today) with 1 winning season (2022-2023) out of 4 seasons.

I am not saying records or resume's count for everything, But, I think the mulligan for cleaning up the mess after Brey is over, and he needs to put together a winning season next year. As we are seeing at Louisville and Michigan with Dusty May, you can turn things around pretty quickly,

Brey looks like John Wooden now.

Probably easier done at Louisville and Michigan than at ND. Other schools aren't so strict about who they let in as transfers, ND is.

Shrewsberry pretty much is limited to the HS kids he can recruit and a hand full of graduate transfers. So it will take time.

BUT I'm not crazy about his offense. It is the same style he had at Penn State. Just don't think it will constantly work in big games.
