I mean, it was at one point, I think it was what, 20 to four.

And I don't think Notre Dame ever got closer than that.

The rest of the game, the fact that they were able to come out strong and Jason, this was a kind of an oddity.

This team, this Notre Dame team, we talked about how slow they play.

And we talk about how slow Duke likes to play on defense because they grind teams to a halt.

There were 72 possessions in this game.

And mainly it was because Notre Dame was taking some shots.

They were missing them, especially in the first half, where they only shot 26% from the floor.

And we were going the other way and scoring very quickly.

So we had a lot of fast break points.

We had a lot of early shots where they were open.

I just loved how this team played and considered, you know, make this an extended business trip.

They took care of business in South Bend last night.

And he joined them on the injured list because he got hurt himself or late in the first half.

It was weird in the sense that we got a couple emails, Jason, from people who were like, did he give up?

And it didn't feel like it, but as you kind of responded to, just the writing was on the wall very early in this game.

It's not often you get to say that at the under-12 media timeout in the first half that a game was, by all accounts, over because that's how they were playing.

And they were missing shots.

not doing the right things to get into this game and establish something.

The crowd was taken out of it very quickly.
