FIFY.
He was coaching at Cleveland State for a reason.
Desiree brought on a friend and here we are.
I'd rather have Kim Anderson or Frank Haith back.
No chance he keeps the 26 class together.

In fairness, that goes back to at least Mike Anderson.
And the team is the team. If we’re going to get shellacked without Pierce, we’re also getting shellacked with Pierce.

Don’t get me wrong, we’re terrible with everyone, but like we havent even been able to field a coherent team. It sucks that there’s injuries but cripes. There’s always just something going on. I’m almost conspiratorial at this point. I think he schedules no one to pump up the wins and then fields half a team against quality competition to make an excuse for the loss. I am not defending him with this either, it’s every single year there’s some f’n rub with who can play. Figure out how to field a team or get out.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this theory was true. At all.

Same. Even the lame NCAAT performances would fall into this category for me.

I also think we schedule HBCUs and friends of Gates as favors to their athletic programs.
It doesn’t grind my gears. But it does camouflage our team.

You’re definitely right on the favor aspect/hbcu ties. Honestly I agree it doesn’t bother me either, as long as we perform against quality teams. I could not careless if we have the 361st noncon if we finish in the top 5 of the sec and make it to the second week of the tournament. It becomes an annoyance when we look so underprepared in the big games.

So we're not going 0-18 again ...
Not sure how many we'll win.
Gates needs to shorten his bench until we get in foul trouble ...
Barrett, Mack and Phillips are useless.
And Mitchell bully ball won't work in SEC

We’ll take a W any way we can. Especially a ranked one.
I’ll update our record.

Completely unexpected. Wasn’t pretty but a first is a first.

Beat the refs and a completely inept Wildcat team.
But we don’t sneeze at any road wins in conference.
12-3

We don’t win that game without both Pierce and Stone
Posted on 1/7/26 at 8:32 pm to the808bass
Does Pope make it to the SEC Tournament?
We get run out of the building without those two

Yes but if they get bounced first round he might be gone.
Posted on 1/7/26 at 8:42 pm to the808bass
This roundball team is such an enigma

Play smart and they are solid. If they play stupid they are not talented enough to win anything.

Had hs baseball tryouts ... but checked score with 4 minutes left.
Impressed that team got the W.
Curious looking at box score ... no Mack. Limited Crews. And Goblin guard was 3-3 from field ...

Have not paid a ton of attention to the Bball team while football is still going on.
Hoping you guys can explain what is going on. How can a team that looked so completely incompetent and poorly coached against KU and especially Illannoy summon the functionality to compete, much less beat, Florida and Kentucky???
What is going on??? After the Illini game, I thought we were looking at a 1 or 2 win SEC season.
