Soderball Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 2 minutes ago, AnkielBreakers said: I this is idiotic, the score was SLU down 7-9, then he sat Strickland and it exploded. I have no idea where Strickland found these handles, but no one can take the ball from him, and he is unselfish. Point guard. Bank it. Done. Zero turnovers. Just let him learn his way into the role. Bad defense has been his Achilles heel today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cgeldmacher Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Prediction: Parker becomes the next Perkins. We shed some dead weight with transfers, we bring in some good transfers. Even if Perkins doesn’t return, we have a bettter season next year. A10Ref and rgbilliken like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to say this is the ceiling is an overreaction. If next year the season doesn’t go better, then that will probably be the ceiling. Huh? This dude has been a HC for a long time he has 1 NCAA tournament win. He got to the NIT runner up with UMASS in 2008 that is the last and only deep post season run of any kind by Ford in 24 years of being a head coach. So tell me how this isn't the ceiling? Past performance is the best indicator of future success. JMM28, Bizziken and TaLBErt like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words we take a bath if we fire him. But we still have no idea what the terms are. I would think the extension was for 2-3 years. If it’s 5, Chris May should be fired.

Even without Perkins if this team isn’t better next year there is a huge problem. We basically have the same team coming back. If there isn’t improvement I’ll be ready to get rid of Ford.

He doesn’t have any track record of anything more. He’s a Doug Collins type. Gets things leveled up and stabilized, but you need to find a Phil Jackson to take it to the next level.

Hopefully Parker is good enough that whether to give minutes to Hargrove or Strickland becomes a moot point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlarry Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Can Ford make the team do wind sprints after the season? This team deserves hours of suicides after that effort. Maybe May can make Ford join them. He deserves to run too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To this day I can't understand how he got 2.5 mil out of SLU. That is 700 grand more than the next A10 coach. We only paid Majerus a mil I believe. SLU has always been notoriously cheap. He may have a fantastic agent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
