WE NEED A NEW HEAD COACH! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

I know we are the minority here but yeah i have to agree "JJ is as exciting as kicking the dirt". He isn't going to bring this program back to glory period

Rome wasn't built in a day. The club will keep growing.

This is by far the most dangerous opinion on this board.

NO THEY WONT, WE ARE PLAYING 6 GUYS!!!

We will never get to the tournament while JJ is head of this team.

Can't even beat Stansbury on home court. Sad."

How did I do

Sometimes it sucks being right all the time lol.

Jones's entire strategy is beyond stupid, wearing this team out now serves zero purpose and not playing huett and green (our supposed saviors according to the same "fans" who overhype every single recruiting class) is actually hurting the team's prospects not just this year but long term as well. There is zero excuse for this stupidity.

We are not making the NCAA tourney with a 6 man rotation and we aren't making it next year with what we are bringing back.

Draw the freaking line already, we lose every important game we play under jones, he is who he is.........a coach who's best years are behind him who did nothing at American to earn this job and has done nothing in 5 years to keep it.

Clean house, wood, jeff, everyone and bring in a YOUNG hire who can inject some life into this moribund program. Do the right thing Broderick, odu deserves better than wood and jeff!

I disagreed with you for a while but I am more with you than against you now. This 6.5 man rotation, with no chance at an at large, screams let me get to 20 wins to keep my job.

Maybe we can rent Norfolk State's football stadium for a few decades and use our $55 million to hire a basketball coach that can get us to the NCAA'S.

What a mess we're in.

We need to win 11 conference games to get to 20.

Rice
North Texas
USM
LT
Charlotte ×2
FAU x2
FIU x2
UTEP

If JJ can pull that off he deserves a lifetime contract!

If we steal one against Marshall or UTSA, we may even sneak in the top 4 and get a bye! Those will be tough though.

The good news is we as a fan base have become so cucked to being acceptant and expectant of mediocrity, it even takes RRM 2 days to chime in after a loss and he isn't even that mad anymore since the only games that matter anymore are the ones in early March in Denton, TX.

Never mind, figured it out. Although you left out Marshall and counted Charlotte twice
Don't understand. We're 12-4. Seems we only need 8 games to get to 20. What am I missing?

Same reason he begged us to come out. He was desperate and did not get it done, again.

Just to be perfectly clear I was indicating that the anti Jeff Jones club will keep growing. I was not referring to that desperate group we put on the court twice a week.

To be perfectly clear, you should have written "Rome wasn't BURNT in a day." (Although that may not be historically accurate.)

I think JJ is actually feeling heat this year. Three things have happened that either don't make sense or are out of crater for him tat lead me to that conclusion.

1. The short bench makes no sense for the reasons you stated above, unless JJ is trying to rack up a bunch of wins so even without making the tournament he and Wood can say he won 23 games, so it's ridiculous to think about making a change. The schedule also is set up for that.

2. JJ playing a faster pace? Change is definitely out of character for him.

3. Making an effort to get fans to come out to games. Can't remember a time in his 5 years when he has led a push to get fans out and engaged.

Looks to me like there is a sense of urgency this year that we haven't seen thus far.

absolutely, attendance is as low as it has been since 13-14, coming off that 2 win season. between jeff jones, conference usa, and the team jeff has put on to the court, it shouldn't be a great mystery to anyone as to why we're in a pattern of perpetual mediocrity, losing nearly every meaningful in state contest, falling further and further by the wayside in our own state... i could go on all day honestly

We are not making the NCAA tourney with a 6 man rotation and we aren't making it next year with what we are bringing back.

Draw the freaking line already, we lose every important game we play under jones, he is who he is.........a coach who's best years are behind him who did nothing at American to earn this job and has done nothing in 5 years to keep it.

Clean house, wood, jeff, everyone and bring in a YOUNG hire who can inject some life into this moribund program. Do the right thing Broderick, odu deserves better than wood and jeff!
I think JJ is actually feeling heat this year. Three things have happened that either don't make sense or are out of crater for him tat lead me to that conclusion.

1. The short bench makes no sense for the reasons you stated above, unless JJ is trying to rack up a bunch of wins so even without making the tournament he and Wood can say he won 23 games, so it's ridiculous to think about making a change. The schedule also is set up for that.

2. JJ playing a faster pace? Change is definitely out of character for him.

3. Making an effort to get fans to come out to games. Can't remember a time in his 5 years when he has led a push to get fans out and engaged.

Looks to me like there is a sense of urgency this year that we haven't seen thus far.

absolutely, attendance is as low as it has been since 13-14, coming off that 2 win season. between jeff jones, conference usa, and the team jeff has put on to the court, it shouldn't be a great mystery to anyone as to why we're in a pattern of perpetual mediocrity, losing nearly every meaningful in state contest, falling further and further by the wayside in our own state... i could go on all day honestly
I wonder if it would be worth promoting Stith to interim head coach next year with BJ as a senior and see how he does just for a season then either give him a contract or move on.

Jones's entire strategy is beyond stupid, wearing this team out now serves zero purpose and not playing huett and green (our supposed saviors according to the same "fans" who overhype every single recruiting class) is actually hurting the team's prospects not just this year but long term as well. There is zero excuse for this stupidity.

MBB: WKU Game - Thursday
While I tend to agree, I don't was to ruin BJs senior year by sowing bitterness and resentment. He'd be playing for a national championship on the #3 team in the country if his dad wasn't on the staff.

I am all for making a move for next season, though i am not sure if that is the right move and could potentially end up a disaster. I cannot stand wood selig, but I do think he had the right idea with the women's hire. if we could make a move like that for the men's team it could be a splash, no question that the men's team has much more in place to be successful than the women's team did when nikki took over.

i'm not a basketball expert, but in the last 17 years we've had blaine taylor and jeff jones. i am so ready for someone young, enthusiastic and actually does bring an exciting brand of basketball


don't get me wrong i loved blaine taylor, but i am ready for something FRESH, i don't want the next guys team to look or play anything like jeffs teams, this brand of ball is tired
