I believe you're thinking of South Dakota State.

I believe you’re completely wrong.

Lincoln’s quote about remaining silent vs. speaking should be featured in this forum’s masthead.

SDSU was in the NCAA tournament in 2012, 2013, and 2016. USD hasn’t made the NCAA tournament since ‘08, and that was the Division 2 tournament.

So yeah, Lincoln’s quote should apply here.

But EagNBran, we only lost by 13 to a team that finished 120 in RPI last year and made it to the 1st round of the NIT. The parade down Hardy Street gets started tomorrow at 2pm.

Nobody’s planning a parade, just maybe delaying the execution you’ve been actively cheering for since the day Sadler was hired.

Ive not been cheering for his firing since day one. Ive been saying he was a terrible hire, since day one. Theres a difference. Id prefer to be wrong about him and he actually win 20 games (annually, not cumulativley), instead of lose 20 every year.

Still lot of round ball to be played.

The point being SD has a history of success and is currently on an upward trajectory, again coming off a conference title and NIT bid last year. And the game was at their place. Sure, you’d rather not lose to anybody ever (then again, some of you start touching yourselves when you see us trailing on a scoreboard), but these guys just gave TCU all they could handle in Ft. Worth. Yesterday’s result is neither surprising nor a disaster.

Weird how Tyndall gets elected Greatest Coach Ever for (temporarily) winning 20+ and making the NIT, but when we play somebody else who did the same, that team is a nobody we had no business losing to.

The point that some of y'all are mixin missing is that we're getting OUT COACHED in the 2nd half...just like the Michigan game, 1 point game at half...only to allow the opposing teams to go on big runs while we're standing around.

See? Now that’s how to be critical in a discerning manner instead of just b****ing for the sake of b****ing because we lost to somebody who’s not on the front page of espn.com.

Basketball couldn't be more irrelevant right now. It isn't his fault, but it is what it is.

Your 2nd sentence poses a problem to the 1st. With interest so low, wrangling the money to buy out the remainder of his contract (2 years after this one?) won’t be easy.

Absolutely agree with you that .500 is the goal, specifically in conference, and if it’s not reached, Sadler needs to feel the heat. His free pass for having to recruit under that ominous sanctions cloud is over.

I'm fairly certain (among the posters left or were driven off on this board), we're the only ones that see the same and have been consistent in posit as it has progressed....

no questioning he has to finish somewhere close to that number....

Raise and extension.

Just lost to mighty Northern Colorado by a dozen...plus 2

Yeah, but they beat Pepperdine this year and Pepperdine had 3 consecutive 20+ win seasons, 20 years ago.

Raise...extension... parade on Hardy Street for Sadler!

Reggie, I think many of us thought Doc was a 'stop-gap' until the Sanctions were over, and maybe a year to see if he could do something after that.

But now? That year's up... if he don't get results, he needs to be let go... and right now, we're not seeing results.

Losing 29-4 to S. Alabumble right now...with 5 guards in the game, which is pretty much over already..

can't defend the perimeter and can't shoot.....

bye Doc.....I've finally turned the corner unless this crew decides they have a clue.....

we were 4 of 21 to start the game.....they simply continue to rain with the treys.......

still can't make FTs either......

******* pathetic what I've listened to tonight......

Some of y'all never miss a chance to slam our school. Always reveling in the negativity.

If this game (USA) is what type of team we have this year, Doc should resign tonight.

axe-ually "only" 45-32 with 12 minutes to go!

Down 15 with 1:04 left to mighty South Alabamw

but...accordian to Juan "rattles in-and-out" Cocks, it was a valiant comeback that just fell short....."

Yea what ever
