How big will this dumpster fire become?
Seriously...it's already a 3 alarm fire but how long will it take before the powers that be call the fire department? It's beyond serious (captain obvious here).

It'll get worse before it gets better. Calibrate yourself.

I wish I could flip a switch and not care about tiger ball any more.

Very good question Bench. It would seem like the powers that be would say this is enough. Enough is enough. We can't continue on like this. No one is having fun. This is a very bad time in Tiger hoops clearly.
Rudd should just reach out to all of the regular joe fans and get money from all of us. Screw the two who are killing the program. We should take the program back.

You've got another year, maybe more, to find out. Take deep breaths and let it unfold. There is really nothing else that can be done. I mean, sure, more threads could be started on Pastner, but what in the h*** do they accomplish? Can he be made more un-hirable? Can some transfer or recruit be scared off? Seriously, what's the point?

At this point I actually think it would be funny if he could not get enough players to field a team.

I agree. The reality is that it's truly possible.

RE: How big will this dumpster fire become?
It was a dumpster fire a year ago. It's a raging multi-block fire now. The question now is does how much does it take with it. Hopefully it doesn't go full blown nuclear.
It's funny in a way. Squeaky clean Pastner is doing worse damage to the program than cal and the NCAA probably ever could have. And we have supporters thanking him for the privilege.

One of the best posts I've seen in my 10 years on the board.

The only joy next year will be the 'bad loss' we put on any team we happen to beat.

Well, let me clarify. I'd be funny in a sick, sad way.
So, he's got no coaches, players are leaving in droves, fans have left in droves, BUT, none of it is on him and we're gonna be really good next year..... Got it.

It's our fault. We "fans" along with the local media, ( except for Wolo and Lapides) have all conspired to bring down the program along with Witherspoon, Sallie, Joe Jackson, Tarik Black, "Cyp", Austin Nichols, Frank the masked marvel, Burrell and last but not least DADA!!!

I think the fire gets put out shortly after we figure out if we are in the new neighborhood.
