Not going to sit and argue with some of the pig headed but I am also not opposed to making a change and if we don’t I won’t be pissed and expect to contend for first place next season. That will be my expectations for whoever the coach is. There are misconceptions about the hire and what all took place as well but it doesn’t do any good to argue about it and what’s done is done. Rob is a good guy and I hate to see it go south. Reminds me of Murry’s Last year.

Yep. We're a torn ACL, a broken hand, a broken nose and a pulled hamstring from running away from the pack.

Can’t really say that when we lose to a 5 win Charlotte team

Don't forget a late defecting recruit.

And let's not pretend its just this season. We have a 3 yr body of work to go on and each year I believe we performed below expectations or potential.

Most certainly that is when it is most evident. Without 4 of our top 8 guys, we are worse than Charlotte.

Yeah we were never running away with this league. What seed were we with Coke, Lee, and bryant?

If you think Haase was fantastic imagine Haase without Robert Brown.

Pretty much Rob Ehsan's world the last 3 years.

I've thought about this. Coke, Lee and Bryant are all really good ball players but RB I believe was the last truly great player we had in terms of skills and leadership. This team has severely lacked any kind of leadership since he left.

I couldn't agree more!

Beer guy, when we lost to a five win Charlotte team toward the end of a disappointing season, coaching gripes were inevitable.
