For 6 years Josh’s teams have been unable to raise their level of play and win big key games. You can build a nice record but if you can’t win some of the big ones then you’ve achieved nothing in my book.
We’ve been over this stuff time & time again and you either accept the direction of the program or you don’t.
That makes nothing I said untrue...
I didn’t say it was untrue but the devil is in the details. Yes, I know I'm correct.
-Yes we went to 4 straight NCAAs but what happened when we got there? Who cares? Memphis has only ever advanced to the sweet 16 or farther, 11 times in almost 100 years...we not a blue blood, and we're entitled to NOTHING. In 2 of them we didn’t win a game and in the other 2 we won 1 game in each and were blown out in the following game.
-Yes we’ve had strong recruiting but what did we do with them? made 4 straight NCAA tourneys We didn’t develop them and didn’t defeat enough good teams to get a decent NCAAt seed In the entire history of Memphis basketball. We've only done better than a 6 seed 10 times...yet again, your numbers are BSwhich was the result of my first point. Which was incorrect.
-Yes we have a prefect APR and I agree it’s a good thing. Yes, I know I'm correct.
-Yes you are willing to give him another year but I’m not. Since Josh is coming back with his full staff, we see how seriously your opinion is taken For me it’s not only about the recent season it’s about the past 3 which IMHO were all underachieved.
Drops mic, walks away...
So we should never strive to do better?

What'd you expect, he's a black bear fan who knows no better. He probably took it as a compliment being called a turd, after all, it is a step higher than being a black bear.

As I have said before I accepted supporting a mediocre football program until I could have my choice of any seat in the stadium. I didn’t have much faith in them either but stuck it out until it was useless.
Now I’ve lost faith in basketball and won’t stay on another emotional rollercoaster. If you can’t strive to be one of the best and do things to make it so, then why try at all?
It starts at the top….LEADERSHIP. PERIOD.

I don't know about that, but I heard he's a pretty good handy man. Especially if you need new gutters hung.
