    He's probably a lazy recruiter. He should cut his whole team and go get 4 shooters. I can't believe he hasn't made the Final 4 yet.

    agreed. he should be fired. he's not fitting there very well at all. Doesn't understand and adjust to he culture of the program and the kids in his area. Simply put, he's out of his league.

    and just think, this guy actually has head coaching experience.

    Who wanted to hire Frank Martin for MSU? Please talk to them about his crazy ass. The rest of us already knew he's a psycho before getting hired by USCe. Almost the entire KSU team threatened to quit if Martin came back. That said he did still beat Kentucky last week. When do we get just one win like that to show us a glimmer of hope? We lost to TCU in the Hump. TCU is 0-16 in the Big12 and we lost to them without their best player.

    damn. we got stepped on by the doormat of the big 12.

    everything's ok guys. Takes a lot of time to not be the worst program in a BCS conference.

    ALOT of people were pissed that South Car could make a "homerun" hire in Martin and we could only get Ray. People were also pissed that we didn't hire UK's 3rd assistant and Joe Dooley.

    so, we're not as bad at being bad as the team that's about to fire their coach? that's good news.

    They were also tied with Florida right after halftime. And they beat Kentucky last week. LSU just got a new coach. So did Mizzou and Arkansas in the last 4-5 years. Three programs that MSU was ahead of for most of the 14 seasons prior to Ray. Where do we rank compared to those three schools right now? What about Georgia? How do we compare to Georgia this year? How about to Auburn? We've become the WORST basketball program in the SEC and it only took two years. Good job Stricklin.

    They aren't even remotely about to fire him.

    Most of their fanbase recognizes the fact that it takes more than 2 years.

    which one of those schools had coaches take over a team that had lost all 5 starters, kicked 3 off for drugs, and had 4 season ending injuries in the 1st season?

    Mizzou's new coach inherited 4 starters and was a conference favorite
    UPig's coach inherited a top 8 recruiting class- in addition to what was already there
    LSU's coach inherited 4 starters- 1 including future draft pick Johnny O
    Auburn is about to fire their coach

    You're not helping your case. Ray walked into a cluster**** and is cleaning up the mess. He was left with dogshit and a couple of good recruits
