Tubby is the coach. Malik is a snot-nosed kid who was a back up point guard on a mediocre team and lucky to be here. He should have been bending over backwards doing everything he can to follow the coach's instructions and make his team better.

Instead Malik, and his mother, are on social media starting a campaign against his coach's decisions. Does Malik think he going to take over the basketball program? Will his tirade open Tubby's eyes to the error of his ways? Does Mama think she's doing anyone any favors? And, does poor little 'Lik deserve any more time anyway?

Before throwing the player under the bus, I’d like to know the factors driving his improper action. It is possiible Tubby could have prevented the inappropriate outburst through better communication, for example.

Unless Tubby hacked Rhodes account it ain’t Tubby’s fault.

Your hate for Tubby is so severe you should probably refrain from commenting for awhile so you would be exposed so frequently

Perhaps I was not clear. Rhodes was wrong. His punishment was appropriate. However, the reasons for his wrong conduct should be evaluated. It is better to prevent a problem, if feasible, than deal with it after it occurs.

Remember, there is a history of player dissatisfactions and transfers under Tubby in his short tenure at Memphis. A little self-reflection might be in order for Tubby.

Your crush had a problem with transfers. Tubby had players transfer his first year on the job which is normal. If he has more then 1 this year or a starter transfer then we can look at it as a problem, but last year is nothing to worry about by itself.

LOL, you completely whiffed on the cogent point.

I don't believe Rhodes' actions are warranted under any circumstance. I understand the frustration, but it's not like he's been tearing it up on the floor. Produce, you play. Simple. Complaining when you're not producing will buy you some bench. Every time.

We don’t know exactly what his actions were —-the ones that got him kicked off.

People here are saying it was probably only the #Freelik.

But others are reporting differently.

In any case, Giannotto writes ‘ Multiple teammates either liked or retweeted Rhode’s complaint.’

This article that was linked in another thread is very interesting:

The coach wants to win the game. If he thinks you will help the team win the game, he will play you. If he is not playing you, you need to show him something in practice that makes him think you can help the team win. That is really what it comes down to.

I suppose it could just be innocuous support and sympathy of a teammate or perhaps a more serious indication of fervent unrest bubbling to the surface.

No, but I use a dictionary often because I am a terrible speller to the extent that it stumps auto correct. It is the curse of many dyslexics like me.

The young man didn’t contribute to winning games. Plain and simple.

If he isn’t happy and creating problems with the team then he should move on

I’m definitely not defending our Coach but I do feel any player who is creating problems and is a sub par player should go

His departure opens up another scholarship for a capable D1 player

Hopefully our staff can replace Mr. Rhodes D1 scholarship with a more capable contributor who can produce more than 2 points a game.

Messy business I wager.

Very little hope along the lines of replacement either.

Had players transfer when he took the job and players transfer after his first year. What will you give as an excuse when he has more leave after this season.

A handful of fans who blamed Pastner for everything under the sun give poor Tubby a pass for everything while Tubby is doing everything literally half as well as Pastner.

Who is giving him a pass? He hasn't coached here two full seasons. Very few teams turn it around in that time. I think three years is a enough time. I'll give him that and if he can't get us moving in the right direction, I'll join the mob.

It's not like Memphis can afford the buy out anyway. But, it gets more affordable every year. I think he's done a good job with what he had this year, and yes, I agree that it's on him to get better players.

A lot of this was caused due to the Lawson situation. I don't want to get into that again, but it happened. When you build a team in April with Jucos, this is really about as good as it gets. We've been competitive in every loss except for at Cinci and UAB (terrible loss). Add a few pieces, get the guys another year, and I think we could be near the top of the AAC and in the NCAA.

If he can't add solid players this year, I will also agree that next year is going to be tough and Tubby's last year.
