"This is just such a physical team and they play at such a pace, it's hard to match their physicality," [Donahue] said of State. "I thought the kids did a good job at it.
"That was my thought coming into it -- we just couldn't get into an up and down game with this team. I don't like to play that way and we're not going to play that way, but for us to win, I've got to teach them how to compete."

Just promise
to never do it again Steve.
I do feel like Donahue knew this was a lost season from the start, so he is just getting game experience for as many guys as possible in the hopes for a payoff over the next couple years.
and somewhere out in the desert
the grass was a little greener and the bird’s song a little sweeter if for only one moment anf for one middling college basketball coach.
(sidebar – does Arizona have grass or birds. Never been so I don’t know)
The Sun Devils (7-15, 3-7 Pac-12) had just four assists, and shot only 34 percent from the floor. From the 9:52 mark of the first half to the 12:51 mark of the second half, Arizona State went 1 for 17 with 10 turnovers.

Yikes...
With that record in what is an AWFUL Pac-12 conference this year, I think someone is getting fired.
Can we start warming up a Gregg Douchebag Doyel and Jeff Grabass Goodman suck it post as soon as possible? I think an apology is in order, and I say we demand it.
With all that said, Herb isn’t a bad coach if at a mid-major program and I think that’s where he will find his niche after what has become a downcliff spirl at ASU.
Troll hard with the run on sentances, Herbie, troll hard
Herb then accepted the unenviable task of rebuilding North Carolina State, a program that had not recorded a winning season in five years In 10 seasons at NC State, Herb took his Wolfpack squads to postseason play nine times. In 2004, he was named ACC Coach of the Year, over the likes of Roy Williams, Mike Krzyzewski, Paul Hewitt and Gary Williams

Actually that's better news
Well maybe not, I’ve got no qualms with ASU, and I have always loved the women they produce, but that team ain’t turnin roun anytime soon (lil redneck for ya, Herb, less you forget what you’re missing).
As is said in the AMP LIVE blog
the other night, I now fully understand why opposing fans hated playing us when he was here. That shit is hard to watch.
Agreed
Herbie’s offenses often took shots late in the clock, but we didn’t stand around until there were ten seconds left and then start into the backdoor cuts.
