    Of course not Trooperdel. Just a smart basketball fan and former hoopster. What level do you play?

    You said that we are young and should improve with age. We are more experienced this year than we were last year and are looking at dropping in overall wins and conference wins. Why?

  • I wish I could give you my years worth allotment of downvotes right now. Unless this is a joke. It has to be!

  • Guys, FOE is pulling our leg. I know he's joking. Well done.

    Rest of SEC got better while our best player and PG was running routes on the gridiron (not that I'm blaming Bruce for playing football). We'll get there. Trust the process.

    Ok.... Since we've improved, but it's just not showing up in the W-L column, tell us.... When we play Alabama, what aspects should we watch for that shows where we've improved? Give us some particulars and we can all discuss them after the game.

    I've recorded the game today, so I'll also go back and review it.

    There's really no way to quantify it. We're not a great shooting team, but Horn's O gives us some pretty wide open looks. That's all you can ask of your coach...of course he can't knock them down (but I bet he could).

    And? He may very well do that again. Will we continue to slide backwards simply bc he is playing football?

    We knew he wanted to play football when we recruited him. Did we simply accept we would get worse each year simply bc of that fact?

    Then we should be able to compare the number of open looks to the number of non-open looks and we should see that we are getting more open looks. Right? If the offense is working we should see a clear difference.

    And you still haven't told me where we are an improved team. What to watch for. Where I can see the progress.

  • I dont't believe you cut him right now. You wait until April when the buyout goes down to 1.25 million. At a bump of 5000 fans per game the buyout is covered in 16 games. Even a 2500 per game bump is covered within 2 years.

    A new coach will drive attendance by at least the buyout his first 2 years. That doesn't include concessions and parking.

    I am all for hiring Bobby, Brian Winters, or Greg Marshall. It appears that our athletic department doesnt care about basketball at all.
