Welp..I doubt we care what other fanatics think...or even other media thinks.
Our own media understands.

If our 'bad' fan reputation keeps us from getting the coach we want....then he's not the coach for Memphis. lol

Welcome to the dark side. Bowen says all the same crap every week.

If long time fans saw some real improvement in the above area, folks would be giddy with excitement and rockin' the FedExForum...season ticket sales would be steadily improving due to the buzz of the future getting better.

...and as the sunset faded
I spoke to the faintest, first star light
And I said “next time.
Next time we’ll get it right.”

Either after this season or after next.

Very true statement, Germantown. I would be one of those. But the key word in your post is the very first word....... IF

Just like this board has done everyday for the past 5 or 6 years. It is the same crap over and over by the same posters. Please find some new material.

If I had a nickel for every time someone posted that, I could buy the Tubby one out.

You can literally take your post and apply it to any of the "All is well, no need to panic" crowd's posts.

Fix Tiger basketball. It's really that simple. If you are satisfied with the program and direction, then we can agree to disagree.

I didn't say I was satisfied because I'm not, I just tired of the same.thing being posted every day, How MANY times can you post that Tubby is playing golf, can't recruit, he is only here to retire. ECT ECT It was the same with Pastner. The posters have a lot of good information but they can"t get Tubby out of their head. What has been said about Tubby has been said over and over. He is going to be here next year if we like it or not,

You may wish to opt to ignore Tubby related threads and posts bcause the nature of their content will not change until Tubby changes their tenor through winning and by better recruiting.

Be careful. That sounds a lot like "If a recruit doesn't want to show that he wants to play for Memphis then we will just move on to the next one."

As a lifelong Tiger diehard fan, I cannot accept the state the program is in and the total lack of genuine concern from any of the administration. I don't accept a coach who constantly tells me to lower my expectations, tries to blow smoke about being on the cusp of tourney team, or throws fans, players and school history under the bus on a regular basis. I love this school, program and fans.

And yes I know all of that above has been said by me many on this board over and over. However, I do know that accepting what we are getting while being silent or happy clapping will not do anything except ensure that continued a downward spiral from this administration. We are all Tiger fans here, and this program is so important to so many of the Tiger family over generations of ups and downs.

So with all that being said, I won't accept that he will be here next year whether we like it or not until he is actually here next year and we are liking it or not. lol
