We'll be fine. I'm calling a tourney team....Just like I did last year. Positive thoughts, positive thoughts.
I do appreciate the positive outlook but quit blasting others just because they take a more realistic view of the team. I think everyone here WANTS them to make the tourney. Most just don't THINK they will.

Being negative isn't realistic either. There is always both positive and negative to be had and we aren't going to be bad forever. it will improve at some point.
You need to quit pretending like you are being "realistic" and not hating. Just own it and quit being a little bitch about it. You shouldn't be ashamed of hating the coach you didn't want. You are a grown up and can stand by your own thoughts/actions. Own it for everyone to see.

Well if that ain't the pot calling the kettle black.
I don't care enough either way to hate KA but nor to be a blind loyalist. I'm perfectly willing to listen. Please tell me all of the positives to happen under KA so far.
I tried and came up with:
321st in PPG
246th in RPG
297th in APG
307th in FG%
8 wins
Leading scorer leaves team.
Leading rebounder leaves team.
Most talented of the freshman leaves team.
7 players suspended.
1 player kicked off the team before the year started.
UMKC
54th best recruiting class.
Best table manners.
Walton.
Better posture.
Players seem to be putting in work this summer. :dude:
A lot of the players had at least one game where they looked good.
We're working on an offense this summer.
We're building chemistry. :nana:
We have guys that want to be here.
What am I missing?

Once again, I'm not a loyalist. I don't know if KA will fail or succeed. All I know is you are an idiot if you are going to judge him after one season given the mess he was handed.

The only thing I've judged or expressed an opinion on are things that have already happened. I have consistently said he should and will get not just this year but next year at a minimum, even when others have called for his head currently. I have no idea if KA will ultimately fail or succeed either. But just because I don't know what the future will hold doesn't mean I won't call 8 wins what it is.

Many of us expected a mass exodus after last year's shite show. I was thinking 4-5 players would leave. It turns out only 2 (so far)....but damn the two that left sure hurt.
I fully expect this year's team to be worse than last year's team...which is saying something.

You better get ready because they are much better than where we will be in year five. I totally expect us to be worst next year now that MGC is now gone.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if this team made the tournament next year.
Puttin unrealistic goals on this team is not going to help them either. This team is not going to any tournament next year. If they get to 10 wins I will consider it a success.

Unfortunately he made it a whole lot worse than it needed to be. I like KA but he is not a SEC calibur coach. I don't think he would be a good coach for UMKC. He was a bad hire and it is showing.

If the over under win total in Vegas is 13 I'm betting the house on the over. Just my thoughts, I've lost many bets in the past, but doesn't change my initial thought...

I truly do hope you're right but my advice...don't do it.

He could have stayed and played. He left. Again, not complaining that he chose to do that but he did.

Better than Mizzou.

Think that one tweet says so many different things. Fuller > Fulford in Teki's eyes. Fuller > Mizzou in Brown and Clarkson's eyes. Both going to Fuller's midwest camp but I don't recall them doing any Mizzou camps. Maybe I'm wrong.

Can't fault the kid, there's absolutely no excuse to losing like we did last year. If he doesn't think it will get any better I can understand getting out while you still have your eligibility left.
