The apathy that we are having as a fan base has not gotten the desired result.

The dwindling attendance did not make them fire Pastner, he moved on his own, and now we are staring at the same with Tubby. Our AD has not even addressed the suckage of our basketball program.

We need to take a lesson from our orange neighbors from the east and bring the full fury of the fan base on the admin about what we think is a horrible coaching hire.

AA tweets say it all.

Penny needs that job

We as a fan base needs to make sure Tubby is gone by any means possible. If it means calling in to every sports show, tweeting and email the admin (which I have started) or any other legal means to get our point across.

Too much bitterness from fans causes players to leave too. Football is not basketball. But yes, fans, especially well heeled fans need to completely bend Bowen here.

The only thing I disagree with you about is josh leaving on his own. Our administration had something to do with it too.

You can hear Tubby Smith yelling in the locker room all the way down the hallway ... Like 50 yards away.

Who is he yelling at?

If it's these kids then he has gone insane.
If it's his assistants, I may understand.
If it is who he sees in the mirror, then he is on point.

I am willing to guarantee it isn't his assistants or himself.

I just wonder if he could hear me yelling at him from Collierville.

I can’t help but feel he won’t last after this year. I can’t see anyone letting this go on for another year.

Yup. Seriously, there is nothing that his kids could have done themselves that would have changed that outcome. Time for Tubby to look in the mirror and realize that he’s buried this program.

Hiring those lame duck assistants and worse of all his lame duck son. We need to pass a nepotism policy right now and tell him he can't keep his son on staff.

I hope he don't but it will all boil down to the big money guys and if they are willing to deal with the problem. I'm an long time donor but just a regular guy and donor. My financial abilities would not even put a dent in solving the problem.

What were the net results of the hillbilly hissy fit? A good coach? Are the fans satisfied?
Not saying a revolt isn’t in order, just a question.

You pretty much lost me at this point.

Hopefully the big money guys are as unhappy as we are. They can’t be enjoying this.

I am also a long time, but small time donor. I will continue to do my part within my means, but the well heeled donors will have to pull the plug and pay for it. I am grateful for their past support and hope they will continue it in the future for the sake of the program's viability.

I wonder if he heard me yelling from Tromso, Norway.

Happy new year, it's 2018 here already, I live in the future.

Dear God, a 34 point loss to a major rival, that's embarrassing...

Yeah we pretty much need to look at what those idiots did and do the opposite.

But remember, coach Esposito is 'building a monster'.
