No. It isn't, Rev. It isn't fun to have to try and justify my fandom of the only team I've ever loved for my entire life to fellow "fans" of the same program.
So we're not fans because we don't blindly follow Mike Anderson? I would say we're even more passionate because we just don't want to be average. I want Mike to succeed but like I said he has reached his ceiling.

There are folks here who root for us to lose so Anderson looks bad.
Pretty much horseshite, if they do they're not Hog fans. Rooting for a coach to lose doesn't get him/her fired.
Fandom has many facets, cheering a win, bitching about a certain coach's decision
and settling for piss poor performances are all part of it as well.
It's a message board, Boar. If we're making it past the first weekend and contending for Championships this conversation isn't valid.
If Mike makes it to a sweet 16, I'll be his biggest fan, until then, the game has passed him by, IMO

Was thinking about comparisons between Mike and Nutt.
Both have had a season where we finished 2nd in the SEC and both had seasons where we were well below average.
Bobby Portis = Matt Jones (in that Matt saved Nutt's job for several years and the same has happened with Portis saving Mike)
Both Mike and Nutt are good ole boys with a history in the Arkansas program, which makes them incredibly difficult to get rid of.
I'm sure I could think of more, but that's all I got for now.

I think Mike is a great person/father/husband
Nutt seemed very sleazy

We have Ricky Bobby as a head coach. Let’s just go fast. Why draw up plays for our lottery pick big. Just go fast and throw up shots.

They were better fresh out of high school.

Not gonna defend this one. Players don't seem to give a shite anymore and they're playing stupid. They looked good during that streak, now they can't seem to figure anything out.

Back to Mike Anderson basketball tonight. Has he broken these guys already?

Even after the W. Kentucky loss we were still fine because of the important win over Indiana. Now we have two bad losses, can't do that this early in the season.

They're just starting to show their inexperience. As soon as we got a 5 point lead they stopped trying and acted like the game was over.

Blames it on the players. Always.

I liked how Anderson just sat there and let the wildly inexperienced tram just play street ball during crunch time. Brilliant system.
Thank GOD we aren't in a real basketball conference.

What was he supposed to do?

You think Isaiah taking a three from Springdale down 1 point is playing street ball? You think Mike told him to do that? It was a freshman making a freshman mistake, it happens.

You think crunch time equals one play?
There's a reason we are mediocre. I'm not going to waste my breath. Enjoy your mediocrity.

Man, a lot of you guys are clueless. The reason he lets them go during crunch time without calling timeouts is the same damn reason some of the best shooters we have tend to miss big free throws. It's because they're young and he doesn't want to slow the game down too much during crunch time in front of 15,000 screaming people. The moment becomes too big and they choke.
This shite happens with freshmen, y'all. Give it time, these guys are a very good basketball team.

I don't know what happened after the Colorado State game but they have played like absolute camel shite ever since then.
