Mike's "Most Experienced Team Ever"...

Was led by two junior college transfers.
Some of us had been calling it out all year last year that it was unfortunate that our two "stars" were transfers. Barford especially. He wasn't much of a team player.
So the question becomes, "why did Mike have to rely on juco stopgap players?"
Because he had early departures for the NBA. Basketball isn't like football. You don't have 85 guys on scholarship. Early departures can set any program back. It happened to us, it's happened to Kentucky recently. It happens.
Good news is that despite this, Mike Anderson is #2 in the SEC. And that's a fact the negahogs can't square. Because it totally contradicts their ridiculous narrative and at the end of the day it's the one stat that will allow him to keep his job no matter what happens this season.
So sorry, I'm not sorry guys.

Maybe one of these days some of y'all will wind up on the right side of an argument.
It won't be easy. You may need to practice some Sudoku or something to get that gray matter working a little better.

Remember when Mike caught shite just for recruiting Jucos? He had to "resort" to getting junior college transfers. Even though they were the top jucos in the country it was still a negative.
But Chad gets a juco o-lineman and he's some miracle worker. We might even get 6 wins next year!

It doesn't do any good to point out their logical contradictions. Half of these folks don't even understand what that shite means let alone care about it, and the other half that do will warn you for getting dangerously close to calling some of these folks racists or something.
At the end of the day, they have separate standards for basketball and football. They'll even tell you so themselves. "Nothing less than the best should be expected in basketball."
But not football apparently.

All I know is that I was called everything but a Christian last night for trying to focus on the positives I see with our basketball program. So I don't give a frick anymore. BoarEd has gone full anti-negahog.
frick these haters.

I would also add to this that most people following the football team are hoping and praying that we get a QB transfer. Including myself. Because sometimes you have to do that. Hell, Houston Nutt, Bobby Petrino, Bret Bielema, and now Chad Morris have all had to supplement their classes with Juco transfers.
But only when it comes to Mike Anderson is this a fireable offense. And Mike Anderson has his team in a higher position than any of those guys ever did.
It's like the height of absurdity around here.

Should just edit your posts and stop replying to yourself.

Stop trying to bully me, ya frickin bully.

You have lost it. Not one person has said “fire mike” because he recruited Jucos 
In fact, he should have taken a couple of Jucos in this class to balance the numbers

quote:Link one negative comment about Macon or Barford's recruitment when they were signed. I'll wait. I was there. We were stoked to get the talent but miffed that Mike whiffed on so much in-state talent. Just more of you two idiots trying to rewrite context to fit a narrative.
Remember when Mike caught shite just for recruiting Jucos? He had to "resort" to getting junior college transfers. Even though they were the top jucos in the country it was still a negative.
Also a 3-4 JUCOs in a football class of 29 is not the same as 2 JUCOs in a basketball class of 4. But you two are smart, you knew that before you started this stupid narrative.

I didn't start any narrative, Drewbie. I stated a damn fact. You're reading into things and striking out again. It's getting to the point where I just expect as much from you.

No you didn’t. It is a FACT that people were excited to get Macon and Barford.

I didn't say anything different.
What I said is that his most "experienced team ever" was led by two juco transfers. And I further stated that I was calling it out all year last year that it's a shame our two "stars" were transfers. Especially Barford. He wasnt much of a team player.
And I think that's all verbatim if you want to double check.
I was the one that was dissapointed. I never said anyone else was.
I'll expect a three form apology from you for poor reading comprehension, disengenous debate form, and jumping in from the sidelines when you think you can score a point, but can't.

You think we don't all know he is safe? He will still underachieve next season. That's just who he is. And you will still make excuses because that's just who you are.

We have had 3 different coaches in football in the time Anderson has been on campus. WTF are you talking about?
