This went about how I expected. The lack of composure is just kinda sad. I want to see a good product as much as the next bammer, but I dont see how anyone thought we'd be worth a shite this year with Grant at the helm. Hopefully he will be gone soon and we'll all have something decent to watch.

Most of us were hoping for the best, but expecting the worst. Your "freaking out" comment was just a hyperbole that rustled our jimmies. ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconcheers.gif)

Well the talent is there and our roster is as deep as it's ever been.

but you try to shite on everyone on this board for acknowledging our displeasure in the way our team is going.
Keep back pedaling

So.... you just don't pay attention do you? Anthony Grant was as home run a hire as could be made in 2009. We thought we were getting the defensive architect of the Gators 00s run and his staff which had created a crazy offense at VCU (the predecessor to Shaka's 'havoc'). Honestly most of us thought by 2013 we'd be back in at least the top 25 if not already a dark horse for the Final Four.
His recruiting and first 3 years results did nothing to cause any speculation as we climbed as high as 12th in the nation, undefeated at home and would have already had a division title if divisions still existed. We were elite in defense and kids like Hillman, JaMychal and Mitchell were creating a high flying act that was a delight to behold. As of 2012 I would have said Grant is our man to the promised land....
And even I can admit it's all gone to hell and does not look recoverable.

With 10 years hindsight, was that appearance a result of Gottfried's hard work and effort.... or a Cinderella run?
