I am not sure what has happened but the last few years it's been the same ole same ole...good..then terrible...Frank acts like he is just going through the motion. Virginia...and then Stetson....come on. I am about ready for a few good years of basketball and just put the final four run on the shelf. Frank is not getting it done...except the one year. The rest is trash.

That one year was catching lightening in the bottle. Frank did not capitalize on the FF with recruiting and is stuck with athletic players not basketball players. The generation today is not going to tolerate getting cussed out in front of everyone so tge talented players won't come here. In 7 years we have gone dancing 1 time.
As much as I think Frank needs to go I do not trust Tanner to make a good hire. Ray has to go first.

I played on those Westside High (Augusta) teams in the late 90's. If you know anything about basketball in the CSRA. Then based off that credential alone. You know I know my shite.

Frank 100% caught lightening in a bottle as stated above. I won't tell you he's a bad coach or not a good coach. He had 3 future NBA players on that team. Two of which were locals. And we all know how hard that is to do for any in state team. The rest of the team was full of role players who bought into his style of play. As well as responded to his Grown arse Man style of coaching. And it all came together and jelled at exactly the right time. I watched them in that SEC tourney and said to the guys that rely on me for sports betting insight. "You ride SC in the NCAA until the wheels fall off, they can beat anybody right now". To this day I tell people had Sin not gotten that flu. Those boys would have ran through that tournament and came home champions. They were unbeatable and made every game their style of game, a dog fight.

If we equate it to football we finished that year going into “bowl” season at like 28th, then ran through the playoffs to the top 4. It was a great year by USC standards but still only a 7 seed. Heck even with the final four run we finished the year 6-6

the ups and downs are just killing me. there is absolutely no reason whatsoever to do what we did vs uva and then back it up with that shite show vs stetson.

Lawson, bolden and bryant all took the day off. That is a sign of maturity. Frank refuses to deal with players that wont show up ready to go. He knows how to coach and has a system that is successful.

i feel bad for kotsar. the guy has battled for 4 yrs and looks the part. unfortunately he has some prima donnas surrounding him.

Lawson decides when he wants to play or not. that kid is good but he is a cancer. the coach cant trust a kid who is like a yo yo.

the great players play every game. great players dont decide when they want to turn it on. Frank cant deal with that attitude.

Frank can handle a loss if its because we just got beat but he has no clue how to handle a team that doesnt come prepared. You will never convince me that Frank doesnt do his job in order to get these guys ready.

if it was me i wouldnt want to take the screamin and stares and bench time. but i guess these guys dont care.
