We were awful in the first half,”It’s as bad as I’ve ever seen us. We were awful on offense. We did some good things on defense early and then stayed out there too long and let ‘em score.

It’s on me, completely. You can’t play as bad as we did in the first half without the head coach doing a poor job, obviously. It was bad.”

A lot of things weren’t clicking and it all starts with me,”

“I’ve got to do a better job. You can’t start off bad and have a rough start like we did. It was a tough environment, on the road, in a big ACC rivalry game. You can’t do that if you want to win games.

We had some times we lined up wrong. I’ve got to do a better job making better decisions and checking out of things. It starts with me.”

“I’ve got to sit down with my family and make some decisions,”

“At the end of the day, going to Carolina, playing in Carolina blue has meant the world to me, been a dream come true. It didn’t finish out the right way but I may have another chance to do that.”
