  1. Kim Anderson should be a cautionary tale for getting blinded by D-II success...
  2. Combination of lack of buzz, fan hangover from last year's disappointment and a terrible schedule. They're going to need to string some wins together and show a fun and exciting brand of basketball to get the fans back in the house.
  3. THIS IS GOLD...and clearly over the head of the editor.
  4. Out of reactions unfortunately as this was worthy of a like…
  5. If Ford gets axed, which I doubt will happen, the player turnover would be brutal and we’d be subjecting ourselves to a couple years of bad basketball…that said we’re not going to be all that good next year anyway. I’d be fine with that if I knew there was a light at the end of the tunnel in the form of a good coach but I’m not convinced that’s the case as I don’t have confidence in May.
  6. I’ve said this as well…he’s not cold blooded.
  7. It’s over. What in our DNA would suggest otherwise? And I’m generally positive.
  8. Yuri is embarrassing himself…trying to do way to much.
  9. Coaches should have a pulse on their teams psyche, when to push, when to give them room. This is a veteran team, one that I believe understands what is at stake this year, what their roles are and I'm confident they are all VERY aware of what they didn't do at Auburn. Travis didn't say anything the players didn't know and I'm sure that there have been many tough conversations in the locker room thus far this year. Him giving a nudge publicly is just a tactic he believes will serve as a kick in the pants...he didn't burn anything down and didn't personally attack anyone. These aren't 5th graders...they can handle it and should welcome the challenge.
  10. They weren’t very outgoing for sure…was geared up in SLU garb and traveling with my 11-year old son, assumed we may get some friendly banter but wasn’t the case. That said, none were a$$ hats either.
  11. Couple observations. I was there, really cool arena...reminded me a bit of Houston. Not a full compliment of students yesterday, they filled the bleachers with standing room ticket holders but the environment really only got "hostile" a few times. All in all I felt the team was able to respond and bounce back each time if felt like it could slip away...other than the 1 minute stretch that flipped the script. We lost this game at the free throw line, end of story. Pickett and Thatch going 0-2 late really killed us. They make those (even 2-4) and the game script plays out differently and we could have afforded a mini-run against us. Hard to argue with Gibson's shooting but he had two chances in the last minute, one that would have tied it and another that would have gotten it back to 64-63..wish he was a little more cold-blooded.
  12. I have tickets 6 available for tomorrow ... DM me if interested.
  13. Self could likely bring down other blue bloods and the NCAA if he wanted...he knows where bodies are buried
