OK....people think i asked that just to get someone else to say it but I honestly didnt know....

This isnt putting into play the fact that we had 4 years of worst basketball than what were even seeing this year right before he came...dont believe me? ask one of the best guards we've ever had....if you compare the 4 years before he came and these 4 years...there is great improvement yet some of you will still continue to call for his head...heck this came from JF's mouth...if he'll give me 3 good years I'll OK with 1 not so good....He remembers all to well what happened before D...he also seems to have a better understanding (than some on this board) of some of the key players that left before this season....so just relax people :wink:

I'm just shocked that HMO's using dial-up. I didn't know they still MADE dial-up. What, you're using an Apple 2e or Commodore?

The guest in the fog are again nuts if you don't think Dunton can coach. He is building a program. I loved his comments today at the Flames Club. The guy will move this program to glory days and some critics will still want more. Ask the coahing staff what they think...guys with Division I understanding. It is inspirational to know the progress being made and look at the core spirit. BTW what are the records of the coaches who left with so much expertise.

That is completely unfair. These were Godly men who were key parts in winning the Big South two years ago. I don't see any reason to trash them now.

I agree with FSN. Both of those coaches basically had to start from scratch at their new jobs. let's leave those guys alone.

true, just so yall know I wasn't agreeing with him!

You really cant say much until you've given him a full recruiting class (4 years)....although most LU fans would disagree! :lol:

If you don't have the oppurtunity to develop a player and watch him mature how could be really be judged on your true coaching skill. There is a difference between saying you need 4 years and getting six and producing very little( Karcher) and then getting 4 years and going to the tourney in half that time (dunton).
