You can't buyout Travis Ford - he made the NCAA Tournament 5 of his 7 years.

RE: Travis Ford could be bought out at OSU
Lots of parallels between Ford and Pastner. Finding a good coach is hard these days. I would find a good bench coach who is a good leader. We don't necessarily need a great recruiting coach as their is a lot of talent in the area that want to play here anyways. Still think Pearl would leave Auburn for Memphis but I doubt the current AD would be willing to go that route. Pearl would be a great fit here and has a good understanding of Memphis basketball and what it means to the city. I know I'm prob dreaming here but it would take him no time to turn this thing around.

It's amazing, we get brow beat around here for "expressions of displeasure" towards the product that we see on the floor. ....Travis has had a very similar run as Pastner. Again, this is a team that hasn't recruited as highly as Memphis, does not have top to bottom talent as we have, has absolutely thrashed Josh & our Tigers head to head.....and we get demonized for wanting a change to salvage this program. ........CLUELESS IN MEMPHIS.

Is the Prairie View Coach available and does he come with a point guard?

you'd have to buy out Pastner, and then buy out Pearl.
Aint happening.

I disagree. Memphis had more talent throughout the roster in my opinion. OSU was 2 deep in the post (Cobbins, Solomon) neither could score. Forte, Nash and Hickey were good. But other than that they had no consistency. The fanbase is pushing for Ford to be fired. And if they do buy him out a name to watch out for will be Doug Gottlieb.

Doug Gottlieb?!?!! I think T. Boone is smarter than that, or else I hope so! Gottlieb would be a disaster of epic proportion.

It takes an OKSU fan for my point to reson8. .....Pastner has talent that has been squandered, absolutely squandered. ....There are very few teams in college basketball that have the multitude of combinations that Josh has @ his disposal. ....If you look @ the possibilities of Burrell @ the 2/3 who has been sitting the bench.....Iverson @ 3/4.....coupled with the most capable 4 in Austin that we have seen in a while.....and give Shaq a definite role.....as he became accustomed to l8r in the season......any combination of PG or Center could be interchangeable Godfrey/Shaq/Iverson C/PF..... PG Pookie /DC/KJ.......Markel /Pookie @ 2 and I have still left out KING.......this is depth that college coaches and teams just don't have luxuries such as these (outside of Lexington )

And don't try the young or we've had suspensions bit! Louisville had major losses of key components to their program.......Even the starting PG (Chris Jones) was kicked off just before the conference tourney. .......and......they're just as young or younger than we are, with 7 Freshmen (1 was redshirt) 1 senior & 1 junior! We beat them twice last year! Did they talk about NOT being able to compete this upcoming season & REBUILDING? F*CK NO! They played the schedule, coached what they had ,came very close to tha FF! Holy SH*T......

If you listen to ANY of the garbage that comes out of Josh's mouth, you will be #lostinthasauce.......Josh is making scapegoats out of everything Memphis right now! How many times does he have to throw players, strength-trainers,assistant-coaches,birth-rights, the fans of Memphis, the media under the bus.......

He continues to do these shenanigans because WE ARE CLUELESS

I dont think he will do well either. That is just a name that I've heard thrown out for the past year.

You are CLUELESS if you think this past season Memphis had more talent than OK ST. Get on twitter and ask any knowledgeable CBB analyst.

Uh actually I think that you should because outside of Forte and Nash they had nobody.
