No. It’s always the coaches fault. They should be fired :twisted:

I’m certain the counter-argument to that will be, “If the candidate doesn’t like that pressure, we don’t want them anyway.”
As if you know anything about WBB :BS

The first sentence of your argument is subjective and your opinion. You are now angry because we point out facts about this program and you have a major problem with it. Oh well! Again, you misstate my position. I’m not remotely angry. And it’s an empirical fact that moving from FCS to FBS is much ...

You lost all credibility in the argument saying the ASUN to CUSA move is equal to jumping FCS to FBS. You also misstate my position. I’m not satisfied with finishing second. Except for this year, that’s an amazing accomplishment with this team. I’m pretty sure the coaches won’t be satisfied with con...

Sorry, same AD that released Gill for Freeze. He can do it again to anyone. Making the jump from FCS to FBS is entirely different from moving from ASUN to CUSA. There were also a dozen other factors at play that aren’t now. I mean I might know a thing or two about college athletics and coaching mys...

Here is the difference between you and me and a few other people. You keep giving CG a lot of credit for winning all those games in the Big South, a much lower conference. If CG have been coaching in the G5 all this time, would he accumulated 500 wins. I’m going to say, no. I look at it like the fo...

You can look at the season results in the last 3 years this way. Finishing second, look at it as a great season or mediocrity. If you are satisfied coming in second and no longer going to the NCAA tournament, then that’s your satisfaction. Some of us wants to see the program go up to the next level...

LU WBB was the FGCU and MTSU of the Big South. They won OPC and advanced in tourney when they had even better athletes and players: unicorns. To be fair, this team got better over the course of conference play. I, for one, did not see a two seed and advancement to champ game on this season’s horizo...

Agree with almost all of that Purple. I would add that another factor in the choice between Metheny and Porter could be the fact that Colin has been much better at making plays without turning it over. Hopefully, if a hard decision is made to not use them at the same time very much, the competition...

You are probably right. But no one thought LU would even be playing at this point so it’s an overall positive.

That’s all you got? You don’t like the way she blocks shots? She’s certainly not the most dominant post to be at LU but that’s awfully nit picky.

I would have Cleveland start next year because of what he showed on both end of the floor. Yes, he needs to improve his free throw. Venzant can start because of his defense and rebounding abilities. Everyone else can be replaced. The two guards will either transfer to a different school or come off...
