When that happens you have to evaluate yourself, your staff and your players.

Mike is only giving coachspeak answers so don't read into much. Defensive

We need to keep Whitt.

There's plenty of time for 2 PGs in this system. I don't get it, the best players will find a way to get on the court

Does he think he's just going to walk right into a team like Cal?

It wasn't as bad as some. Def. gave off the vibe he knows if we're not dancing next year we will be in trouble.

Much better than Jones at LSU, but then again, it doesn't possibly get any worse than that guy.

So Mike himself wasn't satisfied but Mike defenders were satisfied. Confusing to say the least

No one was satisfied.

Its pretty simple. There are those that don't think it warrants making a change and some that apparently do.

Just because you don't think 16-16= worthy of firing doesn't mean you were satisfied with our shitty season.

The only good assistant coach we have is gonna be the fall guy.

Sad to see Zimmerman sacrificed to save whatever you wish to call Mike Anderson's band of brothers.

Half this board is gonna be excited when Whitt doesn't transfer and we make a tourney run next year.

The other half is gonna be depressed

All of this, very easy to understand.

As a fan, 16-16 isn't satisfactory but in my opinion Mike has done enough to get another year.

I haven't seen a single person on this board root against Mike anderson. There is a large and growing contingency that thinks he's reached the limit of good will and would like to see results on the floor outside of a one off season.

no, not out right root against him. but there is a contingency here that expects failure before it happens, and not just in basketball.

then when failure doesn't happen they move on to the next negative to see potential failure in. shite gets old.

if mike doesn't do well next season, hopefully that large and growing contingency will start flying banners or stop buying tickets.

that's something they can actually control.

Mike himself said he wasn't satisfied. That means failure, chief

yes it was failure, I agree.

I'll have to decide if I'm gonna fly a banner or not buy tickets to show my displeasure. pointless to whine about it on a message board.

CMA said he expects a lot from a hungry Dustin Thomas.

Was not aware he was back with the program after the transfer and immediate forgery bust.

I can't disagree with him though, I think we're a tourney team next year. I like the roster and guys coming in assuming we lose no one as he expects.

Also, this team gets to travel overseas for games in August, apparently that is allowed every 4 years. Previous team went to Italy, Mike said Spain this year. Said it's great timing with the JUCO's.

this is in reference to jimmy whitt transfer rumors not being true yet. if it happens, then the people that expected it to happen can celebrate being right about their expectation of failure. perhaps they'll get a gold star for being depressed before the sunshine pumpers.

personally I don't care if he stays or goes. I'm just here to watch either side melt

Well anything on a message board is pointless. I kind of go into it knowing that.

Hell anything except brawling in the streets doesn't really get anything decided
