Sophomore

Sophomore (3/7)

  1. Doug is on a plane from tampa to stl now
  2. I agree. This isn't about a budget issue. There is enough of a budget to perform at a level higher than this.
  3. Let's make it a place for the real fans only! C'mon we don't really need anyone else there to spoil our enjoyment do we?
  4. He is the Assistant Vice President for University Communication.
  5. I understand that he is a regular, fulltime employee of St. Joe's. The ESPN gig is on the side.
  6. And I thought that he didn't sit because his skin was pulled so tight after cosmetic surgery that he is unable to do it! I agree that Pitino has his own style, but some of these other newer coaches who are so animated that I can't help but believe that it distracts the team. I think that the seasoned coaches know when to do it to have an impact. I think UB has been under better control this season compared to last year (and even then it wasn't too bad). Though from the brief TV shot after DP phantom travel at the end of the game it looked like UB was going to pull a Bobby Knight and launch his chair on the court.
  7. I think that coaches do too much on the sidelines as well, however it is a much different game than 20 years ago and the stakes are much higher for these men. Great win last night by the players and coaches.
  8. I agree that both the players and coaches need to learn to win. We have outscored our opponents in the first half in 11 of 14 games (11-3). We have outscored our opponents in the second half 5 times (5-9). We have not yet won a game when we trailed at half. We have lost 4 games that we have led at half. I'll chalk it up to growing pains for now, but isn't this about the time of year that the national announcers start claiming that freshmen are no longer freshmen?
  9. I know of at least 4 guys in my part of town who are in sales that would jump on purchasing multiple season tickets (at whatever price gets them good seats) to the new stadium if the team was consistently winning. Bandwagon jumpers to be sure, but they have the resources to get the seats they want.
  10. I am glad he talked about it in the article. He will get the project done. He is quite the dynamic leader. Good to see him receive the recognition.
  11. BS He misjudged the dunk. It is a testament to his athletic ability that he was able to convert it. The Iowa player was dirty, but not on that play. Glad to hear you made the base team in the military, who cares!
  12. The team can't fix the officiating, it can address the shooting. Energy should be spent addressing a very severe flaw in our game. We could just drop the half court offense altoghether and play 40 minutes of hell.
