Seriously??? Tune in and actually watch us play and them pm your real thoughts. It isn't his fault really, he should have never ben given the job, I blmae our lazy ass former AD who got tired of looking and said here you can have it. Tiger basketball is waaaay to big for Josh, he has loaded up on cupcakes in his 6 years to create that false record.

I remember in The Palace a few years ago in their NCAA games against St Mary's and Michigan State, watching him place 10-15 numbered, laminated pieces of computer paper on the scorers table before the game...I somehow immediately knew he was an awful coach.

My brother and I were laughing our asses off about it both of those games. There are 8th grade girl's coaches who could do that...

Who is going to buy out that contract?

Memphis fans have very high (insanely high?) expectations, so the lack of Final Fours (or even Sweet Sixteens) after 5 years means that there's heat on the coach. Bottom line, he's not John Calipari and he's not delivering Calipari-level recruits or Calipari-level results.
That, and Memphis fans are..................passionate.

It is going to be very expensive for Memphis to fire Josh Pastner and very expensive to keep him. A very rough situation.
Dan Wolken @DanWolken
But I’ll say this to Memphis fans: If/when there is a change, the replacement possibilities will not be what you hope they will be.

That's garbage. $3mm a year, a solid league and a packed arena is very enticing. They will have many solid options.

Knowing Memphis fans, they probably think they can pull a big, established P5 coach out...that won't happen. They'll be getting an up-and-comer and none of them want that again after this

Plus picking an "established P5 coach" means there's two BIG contracts to buy out. I wonder if Memphis even has the 'willing money' to buy out Pastner's. But you're right --- there are morons on the Memphis Board who have lusted for Bruce Pearl now for years.

To me that sounds like some hard financial realities.

lol, Pastner has done just fine up until this season...
25-10 NCAA Second Round
26-9 NCAA Second Round
31-5 NCAA Third Round
24-10 NCAA Third Round
106-34, 4 straight NCAAs
I have zero issue with flash cards when we're out winning 30+ games...it's losing to CBU, Stephen F Austin, and Tulane that I refuse to put up with.

For a Tiger fan, hoping basketball season ends and waiting for football season is living in the Bizarro world.

You truly are an idiot.He's talking about last time around...Mike Anderson, Scott Drew, Tim Floyd, and Leonard Hamilton all said no thanks before we hired Pastner.
Folks forget he's not our first choice.
It's a reality check to some of our miserable fans that Gregg Marshall or Shaka Smart ain't walking through the door.

He means that a job where 4 straight trips to the NCAAs means that you're a bum who needs to be run out of town is one you think long and hard before taking.
So if you can get the same kind of money for, say, the Arkansas or Ole Miss or Georgia Tech or Illinois job, and know that if you make the tournament 2 years out of 4 you get a contract extension, Memphis is a less attractive prospect.
