    Supposedly Caleb Love has removed all references to UNC from his social media Come on, Larry Hughes, work your magic.

    Not that we wouldn’t happily accept Caleb Love, but he had a pretty bad year for his standards.  Might have played himself out of 1st round of NBA draft.  Just about 1 turnover for each assist and under 30% from 3 didn’t stop him from taking 244 of them.  I watched a good bit of Carolina this year and the more the offense went through Bacot and RJ Davis, the better

    To all of you Ford haters, a simple question, does your incessant bitching about wanting the coach fired( even though you know it isn’t going to happen) help or hurt the current recruiting process? And, yes potential recruits and their family and friends read this board. Likewise our competition will be happy to pass this along as well. The fact is, if you were really fans of the program you would take a different approach, but you’re not. You’re like small children pitching a temper tantrum because you didn’t get your way. He’s averaged over 22 wins in the last 4 complete seasons, which is very respectable. The system is heavily rigged against the mid majors and every one knows it. Instead of constant bitching you should be figuring our how you can help, even in a small way, to get us over the top. 

    You can take the high road, I’ll be calling for Travis Fourth’s head as long as we underachieve.  It’s really not at all demanding for a fan base to ask the team to play to its capabilities

    Yuri is a euro player.. his style may do well in Europe. In the NBA and even G league those guys can make their own shot and don't need a passing guy who can't shoot and is short by basketball standards.

    I think his smaller stature and ability to set up may excel at euro style basketball. I expect to see him there.

    And can’t guard.  The NBA talk is ridiculous imo

  4. I was talking to some college buddies (mostly Mizzou fans) today.  They made a comment that they were surprised SLU got to 20 wins and finished 4th in the A10.  They thought it was much worse since I hadn’t been talking about the team.  They went as far to say that this kind of season isn’t a failure and is something to build on.

    This is exactly our problem.  20+ wins and a double bye in the conference tournament is a really good season for a lot of teams.  We know we have miserably underachieved for most of the year, relative to expectations.  It’s for this reason it will be hard to move on from Ford

    There were many comments right on ... Soderball saying the best we've played in a while.  The refs taking Camara out for us.  The T on Perkins was bull.  Ditto if it was on Okoro.  Okoro played with passion and fire.  Chaifetz cherred with passion and fire.  Crowd looked great.  Every run they made, we answered.

    Thought the nine point lead put us right where Dayton wanted us.  Almost.  Hero ball at the end resulted in two Collins' turnovers.  The inbounds gaffe is on Ford --- I've been saying all year why don't wse have a full court inbounds play???? Expecting Collins to break through a double team is madness.  Up a bucket in FGs.  Down two threes.  Nine of nine from line to their five wins it.  Even the stats say even ballgame.  Plus 4 on the boards.  Down one in assists.  Down one in steals, up 5 in blocks.  Up 4 in turnovers.  This game is in Dayton and we get homered.  Dayton fans now saying the same tonight.  Good.  

    As for tomorrow, I'd like to avoid Fordham if we can.  

    Nice close.  Thank you Seniors.

    I’d rather be up 3 or 4 points instead of 9.  We get comfortable and tend to blow leads if it’s anything more than a couple possession lead.  Very weird, but a reality with this group
