I took a Crud Load of bashing over my post and it was even moved by the Mods AFTER we won our 1st game
many on the board got emotionally charged after beating Tulsa
Then we beat Tulane (wow)
Make the championship game and now we are stuck with Pastner for who knows how long
We had to lose the first or second round game for the admin to be forced to do whatever it took to make a change.
I'm as big of fan as anyone on this board and actually donate money with no benefit since I no longer live in Memphis for upgraded tickets etc
I never root for us to lose but in the one instance of this years torny we needed to lose to Tulsa for a change to take place
I for one would gladly give up one loss to have a fresh start with a coach who can work the Memphis crowd
I'm extremely disappointed in being forced to endure more Pastner years but IT IS WHAT IT IS...
For those who bashed me and the mods who moved the 90+ reply topic I would love to hear honest feedback:
If you knew then what you know now would you still bash the idea of needing to lose the 1st round game for JP to have moved on?
Getting to the finals gave him more fire power to fight the dismissal. Much less giving in on any type buy out.
We're not stuck with Pastner because he beat Tulane and Tulsa in the AAC tournament. We lose that first game and we've still got Pastner.

RE: Just Sayin
Pastner is here for 10 million reasons. The University, under the direction of Shirley "the Butcher" Raines, single handed put Memphis basketball back to the stone age when Wayne Yates was king. People moan about Calipari leaving and ruining the program. Raines did more damage as she ran out the back door. She didn't even need to take a snow cone machine.
Pastner is here for the time being. It pleases some, infuriates others. It's sports. Wish him well. He's gonna need it. But not to fear. His "phone a friend" card will still have 8,000,000 reasons to stay after next season.
