Yes. I think that's been my point.

Why is anyone worried? According to the usual bunch of clowns, Pastner hasn't achieved anything, and any coach can walk in here and get us to Sweet 16's and Elite 8's in no time.

Well, conversely - if Pastner is a good coach, he isn't proving it this season AND, as you say, we still will return an undersized front line minus Godfrey and slow, short guards and add a 195 PF in Lawson. So, for the rebuilding crowd. What exactly will the rebuild yield next season?

What happens when next year's team has to play another Gonzaga, Michigan State, Virginia, Baylor, etc.?

Seems like more of the same.

The Tigers had finesse teams long before Pastner took over. With the exception of his first two seasons, Larry's teams always struggled with physical teams. Huggin's Cincinnati teams always give Larry's teams fits.
Calipari's early teams got man-handled inside as well. Kansas's bigs gave us all kinds of problems in the finals, and Cal's early teams regularly got pushed around.

So the NCAA and Pastner were locked in a conspiracy to pad his resume, and force his being the Memphis hoops coach on the miserables?

Those bastards!

Right on the money. Here are the Tiger basketball records to prove it.

1990-91 17-15
1980-81 13-14
1979-80 13-14
1978-79 13-15

Keep using 3rd round, then, player...

Well thats all Bartow HAD to do to get there. The fact that the tournament was only 25 teams and you had to win the conference title don't factor in with some people doe.
