The most successful program on Liberty Mountain deserves its own forum. We give Coach Green and the Lady Flames their props while breaking down their run to the Big Dance once again.

Hoping this one doesn't get snowed out. But we'll see how it is, maybe just on top the Blue Ridge where I am.

Really not sure if I want to say what's on my mind.

If this doesn't turn around, and if we don't win the conference, it's time to look elsewhere.

Yes you're right Haize, I just got too lazy to edit it.

I'm sorry, this is inexcusable. We should at the least be competitive with the likes of UVA. Now we are slowly degrading into a typical, even subpar mid-major team. I'm not okay with that. We can, I should be so much more.

We've beaten them a couple of times. We need to find some offense

Dude you are totally irrational you get a couple down seasons when you've done what Green has.

Or perhaps notice the downward trend we seem to be on?

this is a downward trend? One season does not a trend make jbock. Now ODU...that is a downward trend. What is going on here is not a trend...not by a longshot...tough year yes but certainly not a trend.

Noticing a real disparity in talent and athleticism/quickness. We're looking more like a middle of the road BSC team right now. We have starters who are best suited to be role players with limited minutes. UVAs defense was stifling but a lot of our TOs were inexcusable and showed a lack of concentration and judgement (maybe talent). We lack the quickness to put any defensive pressure on teams. We played zone all night and UVA shredded it all night with about 15 layups! Teams we're facing are much more athletic, quicker and more aggressive. UVA was picked to finish last in ACC preseason!

We have to rely on poor shooting on their end and rebounds on our end. We lose most 50-50 balls. Look at the steals UVA had and the ones we had. This is going to be a long basketball season for the men and women but I'm all in and will continue to offer support.

Jelena Antic's departure looking huge right now :cry:

Don't forget though that they defeated #3(at the time Tennessee) a couple weeks ago. They are not a bad team.

By using your own logic, you fail to realize that we're no longer competitive with any big name team the way we used to? We certainly weren't last year either.

But that's okay Beej. You're much more of a fan than I am, because you love this mediocrity.

There was a time we lost to Kentucky by 6. Now, we're getting crushed on the road by the likes of NC A&T. This is unacceptable, and I honestly can't see anyway you could possibly spin that.

Agree that this is a bad year but who was the coach when we played Kentucky? Every program has down years, it doesn't mean you fire someone as successful as Green for a couple down seasons.

Thanks for proving my point 09. We are clearly on the decline since then. And with the talent we have it's not acceptable to be where we are.

Mediocrity is not good enough for this program. Women's hoops is what we are known for. Now we're even middle of the road in this too. We need change.

You want to fire the reason we are known for women's hoop. I'm just glad JB makes the call and not jbock.

We played Kentucky in March 2010. You really are calling basically 1 season and a small part of a second a "trend"? Like I said, ODU is in a downward trend. Ours isnt a trend at this point. Are we having a rough go of things...certainly, but we're not out yet (although in your mind we are jbock). As 09 said, Im glad youre not the one making hiring/firing decisions at this point

Lol yeah, cause I bet Barber thinks its acceptable to lose games by 40 right?

Let me just say I'm not the only one who feels this way. Green is on the decline. I'm sorry if it's not what you want to hear, but look at our offensive numbers. How many times have we scored less than 15 points in one half? How can you even justify such a pathetic waste of talent?
