I'm not ok with the way things were handled and no apology for that.

If you are ok with a very late hire, that's your choice. It put Ray at a huge disadvantage in recruiting.

?? Not even sure what this means nor what it has to do with the subject.

LOL!!! Not sure where you are going with this.


If you are trying to suggest that I am against Ray, you are mistaken.

2. Where is he playing to only average 6 minutes per game?


He's JUCO.. Southwest. The time isn't correct. It's just what they have up. Most games they list him as only playing 1 minute, but taking 20 shots.

edit: Points not right either.. Average is higher.

Example game 1. Made 6 FT, 2 3s, and 8 fgs. that's 28 points. They listed it as 24.
pretty much off on all of them. Game 2 off by 4, 3 off.. etc.

He's starter.

6 FT = 6 pts
2 3's = 6 pts
(8 FG is 6 2-pt and the two 3's already mentioned.)
6 2's = 12 pts

Total = 24 pts.

One HUGE difference between Ray and Cohen. Cohen can RECRUIT, Ray not so much so. Also Cohen is a MSU guy, played here, won here, said State is his destination job.


Is this the same Cohen you wanted fired?

So, you are saying Stans should have been fired sooner? Agreed.

No.. I'm not saying that. I am saying that we should have had a better plan!

A better plan would have been to let Stans go one year earlier -- and given a new coach a stacked deck with Bost, Sidney, Moultrie, Bryant, Steele, Hood, Gardner, DeVille, etc...

That would have been a MUCH EASIER hire to make.

Who all did we actually offer the job to?

Gregg Marshall from Wichita State
Miles from Colorado State
Bryce Drew from Valpo
Steve Proem from Murray State

Two I think would have taken it before Ray would have been Kermit Davis Jr and Kenny Payne.

Don't want to hear that stans could not control his team when ray is having a hard time doing the same.

Exactly.

Ray has had to throw two players off the team and suspended two others for multiple games

How many of the guys he is having trouble with are actually Ray's signees? Oh, that's right...Zero. One in the upcoming class had character concerns. What did we do? Cut the string.

I fail to see how it's Ray's fault that practically EVERY Stansbury returnee has a major smoking problem and can't get their shite together enough pass a piss test... Much less failing the 2nd and 3rd ones when they KNOW the consequences.

I know one damn thing -- I don't see players ignoring Ray in the huddle. I don't see them mouthing back at him on the bench. I don't see them brawling in the stands in wifebeaters. I don't hear NONSTOP rumors of locker room drama and cancers. I don't see our big men 40+ pounds overweight for THREE FULL YEARS. I obviously don't see them skipping basketball workouts with Akins nonstop(hence the staying out of shape). I don't see them walking up and down the floor and dropping 10+ points/game to PURE laziness.

No, what I see is 6-7-8 guys that play hard and play together, are in shape, listen to the coach, and are taking their lumps right now and will be better for it in the future. The negativity without any semblance of reason makes it difficult for me to even see some of you enjoy success in the future.

Al's the first one to bash Ray. But he's the first one to post about Cohen...after nonstop bashing him as well.

Ware, sword, Thomas, Johnson, lewis, etc etc are stans recruits.


They are all, all Ray's players and this is his team. You can not have it both ways.

Was smith not drama? Is Steele not drama? Again, you can't have it both ways. You can take the big over weight player crap out of here too. In all of stans years, there was one player like that. Everything you are pointing mainly revolves around sidney. I can name you many more players on that very team that did not walk up and down the floor.... That did not show up over weight, that busted their butts to play for stans at msu.

As far as Al bashing, that's a two way street, and you are smart enough to know that. You can knock stans all you want. It's a free country. However, the banners and success of what he die at msu will be the selling card for future recruits. You know it, and I know it.

I have shown that stans left this team in good shape as far as talent. That includes the talent of last year's class. Yet you want to bash him and it serves no point but to ease your feeling on the current situation.


That's fine with me if you want to do that... I think its stupid, but its your choice.

Those SEC West Banners are so meaningful the SEC decided not to recognize an SEC West champion anymore.


Hell we've one the west before and didn't even make the tourney.
