Very embarrassing.

We have a reputation for being rubes because so many are...rubes.

How many times have I told you not to interrupt when adults are talking?

Move up too quickly and you miss out on those little steps of experience that make you good at being a leader.

He may yet develop into a good coach - being fired from here may be the best thing that ever happened to him.

Belicheck sucked with Cleveland, is awesome at New England.

Lots of professionals of other stripes get promoted too fast, crash and burn, and come back stronger to be more successful.

Failure is a great motivator and teacher. I speak from personal experience. Architects (and most professions actually) learn from mistakes. I'm no different.

It takes time.

I have NO doubt Pastner will be a successful HC one day. Just not sure it will be here.

Anyone ever hear of a whole 1st team fouling out and 3 more with 4 fouls. What would have happened if there were only 4 players left on the Tigers side? They would just quit calling fouls? Stop the game? I've never heard of a ref heading over to the scorer's table to see how many players were left available to play. Maybe Damon could suit up. The ridiculous calls they made or didn't make were obvious to a 10 year ON BOTH ENDS. One was when Ricky reached around a player and pulled him to the floor. It looked like a football tackle. I would say the same thing had the Tigers won the game. It's the worst called game I've ever seen.

SC had 2 players with 4 fouls - 2 of their bigs btw and one of them was Carrera - before any of our guys got in foul trouble. This was around the 8-9 min mark and then they went zone. We stopped driving like we were earlier and they kept driving. They got fouls called cuz they were relentlessly driving the ball instead of jacking up shots like we were when they went zone. That's when the fouls started piling up against us.

Kava Tiger I respect you're opinion but you left it a little short with "just because". Can you expound on how the stupid things the PLAYERS do are Josh's fault. Is it lack of preparation, under development when a senior commits a dumb foul over and over. I don't see Duke, Ky, Kansas players doing that stuff as seniors, excluding Ky players don't get to be seniors.

Actually Bellichek wasn't as bad as everyone makes him out to be in Cleveland. I watched a special on the 95 Browns. Modell screw that whole deal up with the move. He was about to turn it around.

With some trepidation, I fear Pastner seems to be in the same boat as Belichick.

LMAO

Bahahahahahahaha. Holy @#$%@. We should just lock the thread on that one.

Good Lord the comedy on here is off the charts

If you guys only knew how funny you aren't.

What you say is jibberish

We're watching the next Quin Snyder, minus the sanctions. Dale Brown maybe. Good to really good recruiter, average at best head coach.

Belichick? No chance. None. You could give him Kentucky's recruiting class four years running and I bet he wouldn't make the Final Four once.

I thought the term for Josh was "our coach K"? Now we've moved up to the pro ranks?

Oh my that hurt. Did you give anyone timeout at school today ?

No. As far as I know all of my grandchildren were well behaved.

Or the Sweet Sixteen. One of the miracles Cal has pulled off is keeping internal strife down with so many blue chips on the team. To put it mildly, managing people is not one of Josh's strong suits.
