WW, stop with the ridiculous comments about bussing up north, and calling the program a joke. do you want to take the head of basketball operations job?? do you have any clue what is involved?? im sure there is a good reason why they are taking a bus. yes this is a tough loss, but hopefully we can rebound on saturday.

Sure...I'll take the job... There is no reason a Division 1 basketball team should travel longer than 6 hours to a game by any means of transportation. The team will not get on the bus until 10 PM, I am sure they will stop to eat. That gets them to Buffalo by what noon tomorrow. Last I checked I have a right to an opinion. So, put the pom poms in the closet.

And by the way, I do know more about a basketball program than you guys who sit in the stands. I just cannot believe we cannot beat a team that is 8-19 who were just waxed by UVA 3 days ago.

Agreed. A loss to a team this bad on the road or not is unacceptable.

Being waxed by UVA is no disgrace, I suspect we would too. I do hate to lose to a team that has only been D1 for 4 years and is in our backyard.

I believe it's a sleeper bus. They go to bed & wake up in Buffalo, and do the same (except in the opposite direction, of course) for the return trip. Check the weather reports and get a life.

Last year you guys were complaining because his shirt came untucked during the game, and now you don't like buses.
If Pete G rode the bus, you guys would offer to drive and call him a genius.

Not that I care what you guys say, - I just like joining in on the board every now and then. No name calling.... you guys have expressed your agenda... have that right, etc. etc. etc.

I'm just hoping they finish strong, and have a great season next year with Dunton at the helm.
