Hey, how about that game, huh! Scored touchdowns just about every way you can. Nice to see some of the backups getting their uniforms dirty.

Imo we should have hired Hugh Freeze and Scott Drew years ago but we didn't. The jury is still out on both Penny and Silverfield as far as I'm concerned but it is much easier to win big in basketball than football.

Penny recruits at a high enough level to cover for most of his deficiencies, Silverfield not so much. I'm not on the Silverfield bandwagon, but he was so close to winning me over before the Houston collapse. CRS may yet get it done and unless we have a sure fire coach in waiting, well, be careful what you ask for.

It could be worse. Try walking on the sunny side now and again. The skies aren't always cloudy and there's a bowl game yet to be played this year!

Go Tigers Go!

I nominate this for the dumbest post of the year.

You can nominate but you shouldn't get a 2nd for it. It is a reasonable thought process.

People forget that Norvell basically made Silverfield his successor with all the coaching titles he gave him. Was Norvell wrong?
People also give grace to Mr. Hardaway though he has far more built-in advantages and a more even playing field yet he has accomplished about the same or worse as Mr. Pastner who people wanted out after year 3.

I will say that the administration needs to get some outside consultation of the FB program and, I hope Mr. Silverfield is humble enough to consider the advice. It is better for the university if he improves and becomes more of what everyone hoped he would be. Between he and Hardaway, I think the university is paying less than Mr. Freeze makes a Liberty.

The same or worse? When did Pastner win us a NIT championship? How long did it take for Pastner to get past the first weekend and he had a stacked team plus coming off historical seasons? Penny took a terrible program and has already done more than Pastner.

Pastner took over a program with a depleted roster and looming sanctions

Better than the roster Tubby left Penny and the sanctions had no effect on anything. Try again and harder.

And yet, they play every year, and they have fans. Not as many fans as us, not as nice of a stadium as us, not nearly the same level of talent that we do, probably less than 20% of our budget.

NOBODY is "settling" and nobody is happy, but to listen to a few of the board psychos say that watching us and supporting us is beneath them, would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic.

So we can become eligible to play a game that nobody cares about anymore

The young men on the team care. The seniors care. If you don't believe me, talk to them. Read the CA article about it from the weekend. YOU, as a fan, may not care, but the guys on the team absolutely care. And I will always care, b/c I was on three bowl eligible teams that didn't have a chance to go. 92 we were the frontrunner for the Independence Bowl to play Wake. Dr. Rawlins refused to pay for the advance tix the school would have to sell and they took Oregon instead. So I will never take it for granted.

While there are some good points made here, it's all lost when the name of Freeze is brought up. He is a walking and talking civil liability. His past in Memphis that is tied directly to things you do not want on the front page of any paper, plus his continued path along these lines removes him from ever being considered at Memphis. Period.

Clearly lies because there is no way so many people know about all the bad stuff that Freeze did and no leaks...

If Freeze did something so bad, he should be suffering consequences, but he isnt because he didnt. Enough said on that BS

Talk to some of the young ladies that played basketball for him.........

As far as I am concerned, if someone knows he did something that deserves jail time and they arent doing everything they can to ensure he gets it, then they are just as guilty as him.


Either there are a lot of low life, amoral, pieces of **** in Memphis, or nothing happened. Can't be both.

Correct.

All the people that need to know, who were a party to it, who make decisions around it from here who have this knowledge...know.

Its not a secret to those in a position to know.

I used to buy that talking point from Josh too. Until I really looked at his roster. To hear him talk, he picked up a bunch of guys at Howze Park to play that year. In fact, he had five 4-stars and five more 3-stars.

Nine of those players went on to play professionally, including 2 NBA guys and 3 other G-leaguers:
Coleman - 5 years - Europe
Garcia - 8 years - various leagues
Kemp - 9 years - G league and various
Mack - 3 years - Europe
Henderson-Niles - 7 years? - G league and various
Sallie - ?? years - various
Stephens - still playing - NBA and various
Williams - 7 years - NBA and various
Witherspoon - 5 years - G league and various

He inherited Garcia, Kemp, Mack, Witherspoon, Niles, and Sallie. And Josh was gifted Elliot Williams as a hardship transfer, and Will Coleman as the one Cal recruit who didn't back out. Most coaches can dream of inheriting a "depleted" roster like that. That lineup was higher rated than all but Cal's final 2 rosters.

Spare us the "no players" bit. Josh - much like Ryan - was given the keys to a lambo and didn't know what to do with it. He did keep it on the road for a while, before running it into a ditch.

Sorry I don't think this is valid. It is odd that so many things in our society are considered consensual transactions but sex is so stigmatized. It's kind of like saying people who employ workers are more likely to enslave them - that is obviously absurd. There is a big difference between a consensual economic transaction and non-consensual forcing someone against their will. And the reason there is so much violence/drugs/etc. associated with prostitution is because the government has criminalized the industry - the same thing happened with alcohol during prohibition. When the government criminalizes your business it just makes it a lot more dangerous.

We fired our head basketball coach for consentual sexual relations with another adult...

...along with his wife.

The threesome didn’t get him fired. Chasing the student out of the house after he caught her with his wife when he wasn’t there got him fired.

So...you are saying that it is cool to bang prostitutes when you are married, BUT...I am an a-hole? I am very comfortable with who likes me and who doesn't; trust me on that one.

Interesting. I will give you credit, you are always on point.
