What have you done for me lately or what? Weren't we just in the Sweet 16 last year? Penny beat 4 top 15 teams last year, and already beat Auburn this year. We played Alabama to a 3 point game on the road. We haven't lost to any bad teams. Penny doesn't pad the schedule with a bunch of OOC patsies. The American is tough and there are no gimmes.

Give the guy a break. This team is going to leave it all on the floor every time out, and they're still figuring out their chemistry.

Even if we do just make the NIT this year, so what? Penny's had to deal with ridiculous NCAA allegations and massive attrition and recruiting difficulties as a result of.

There is nobody I want coaching the Tigers more than Penny.

You don't have many post as of yet Pussycat, but this is a great one.

Sweet 16???

A month ago, Penny outcoached the legend who many on here dream of as our coach - Pearlvert.
Penny had a bad night at UCF.
Is what tis.

Tinkerbell has only posted in our 3 basketball losses in the last year. It was only a matter of time before his buddy Twinkletoes showed up.

Wishing Dawkins would throw him around in a blender, while the rest of us wish he was in a sack.

No. Beat Boise St in the first game and lost to Gonzaga in the next game.

Penny is in year five with one tournament appearance and one tournament win.

If the Tigers continue to stank on the road, it will remain that way for another year.

Sweet 16???

Yeah, after the German's bombed Pearl Harbor. Okay, so I was off by a round, but that team sure seemed like a Sweet 16 team. All I know is that Penny's teams are usually fun to watch and that's about all I ask for.

True I don't post much; usually just when someone's post riles me up. I like Penny. A coach like Larry Brown isn't going to come work for a dope. Penny's doing good things and the best is yet to come.

WTF are you talking about? Just because the Tigers are playing like shite doesn't mean this basketball conference is shite. There are many high quality programs remaining in and some others joining the American which will make it a perennial 3 bid league. That doesn't mean the Tigers will automatically be one of them.

You also thought we sucked, so you stopped watching us 3 years in a row right about now and you thought we were in the NIT last year. You also thought that we should have fired Penny before the ruling and begged for mercy because the NCAA was going to kill us, and that we should hire a coach who was 2-22 to replace him.

So, you know...



Anyway, regardless of what anyone thinks of me, there is no denying that the lists are hilariously different. Nobody on either list belongs one the other one. Not just different, hilariously different.

2nd in line for the Big 12!!! Lol

Agree. We were not favored in that game and justifiably. UCF is a good team and they were playing at home. We are not getting blown out and are in every game. If you win all your home games and a good majority of your away games....you are doing really good in this conference.

That is a good point. We are on even terms with UCF and played them even in their building. We had a 4 minute drought at the end of the game, and the ref missed an obvious call with 48 seconds left that would have put us up by 5 points.

I'm going to agree with you there. We got robbed out of that second round win last year. We SHOULD have advanced. "Timmie" could do no wrong in the eyes of the refs, and we couldn't even play defense without getting the book thrown at us.
