McNeese state basketball thread

[msstate7]

Anyone got a health report?

[Bothrops]

Is this who we're playing next?

[msstate7]

Is this who we're playing next?

Yep in 1 hour

[Coach34]

Need Ware back tonight getting ready for a big Friday...hopefully a better Chicken

[quickstrike2]

Anyone got a health report?

Gotta wait till after pre game warm ups.**

[archdog]

How is it that I never know when we even have a basketball game. The administration needs to get the word out starting the day before the game in better fashion.

I'm sure the AD didn't want everyone ditching the Orange bowl to stay around for basketball*

[archdog]

Sure, but I basketball team needs some attention

Stricklin probably doesn't want people witnessing his hire in action.

[msstate7]

I was joking. I don't think either basketball or football will get much attendence

[msstate7]

8-0 mcneese

[HoopsDawg]

8-0 mcneese

keep in mind this team lost by 41 to Baylor and 29 to CMU. I tried to bet against the dogs, but vegas didn't even put a line up.

[msstate7]

It seems every game we play someone hits 3's at will

[Coach34]

We are literally getting nothing from Ware and Chicken...thats a killer for this team

[BeardoMSU]

Look, I don't want to be a total downer, but I'm in the same place with this team as I was after Croom lost the season opener to LaTech: I want it to be an easy and obviously decision at the end of the year...a change is needed.

[msstate7]

Ware isn't playing. Chicken just checked in.

[Coach34]

Ware isn't playing. Chicken just checked in.

exactly- thats a killer. Does Ware have Moultrie Knee?

[msstate7]

exactly- thats a killer. Does Ware have Moultrie Knee?

I have no idea. Finding info out about this team is harder than watching them

[msstate7]

Down by 13. Ray shouldn't finish the year as our coach

[Percho]

Well I tuned in about 3 min ago we were down by 4. Now by 13. Guess I better tune out,

[bluelightstar]

We are terrible. Watching it on ESPN3. Down 26-13, 7:54 left. McNeese already has 5 3's (they average 5 a game).

[Coach34]

LSU beat this team 11- so they arent awful....but losing by double-digits is ******* ridiculous

[msstate7]

This is really bad

[JOHNHEVESYMADE]

McNeese lost by 29 to Central Michigan. Gavin and Dunlap are actually hurt. I'm convinced Demetrious Houston's concussion= Moultrie's knee though.

[msstate7]

I'm so sick of teams using the entire shot clock and getting a layup as it expires

[HailState39110]

I'm so sick of teams using the entire shot clock and getting a layup as it expires


Score?

[Bucky Dog]

Score and time?

[bluelightstar]

36-19 McNeese, nearing half. 2:23 left.

[Coach34]

We're getting blown out at home by McNeese- it's time for Ray to go

[msstate7]

We're getting blown out at home by McNeese- it's time for Ray to go
Like tonight (not playing)

[99jc]

[HancockCountyDog]

Score and time?

That does not matter.

Here is what is important : no one has cursed out the coach tonight . They have hustled. There have been no fights in the stands. The coach has been treated with respect . Once again, these kids hustled.

So the score is MSU basketball 100 - Competition - 0

For all those Stans lovers that worry about wins/losses, the score is McNeese State -32, MSU -19;

[msstate7]

What is ray's buyout?

[Bucky Dog]

For the record, it was time for Stansbury to go, Ray was a horrible hire from the start, and he should not be our coach when SEC play starts! Scott should have the pros asking around and getting the RIGHT fit in place at the end of the season.

[bluelightstar]

I hate this false dichotomy that people create like the world's only two basketball coaches are Stansbury and Ray.

It is possible that it was time for Stansbury to go AND that Ray was just a bad hire.

you sir get rep points!! Been saying this from the start. There are not two sides ... 1. Stans or 2. Ray... Its simple... Stans- No, Ray- No... The answer.. Hire someone else!

[msstate7]

We have 3 first half assists

Too much common sense in this post.

[BeardoMSU]

At this point in the season, the choice is clear: a change needs to be made. The more games we lose this year, the easier that choice is to make, especially for a guy like Strickland.

[thf24]

How is it possible to be this bad? I think either of Ray's first two teams could beat this team. Can we just shut down basketball and get started on the coaching search?

We'd probably save a lot of money. No way we're turning a profit at the hump these days

Right? That 15 member crowd doesn't even pay to keep the lights on.

[Political Hack]

thank you Strick.

[PMDawg]

What is ray's buyout?

He should have to pay us.

[BeardoMSU]

I'm struggling to find a single thing this team does well....

[Jacksondevildog]

How can we get out of this mess when the person hiring the next coach is the one that put us in this mess with this current coach? I understand that shit was bad too when he was hired. That doesn't need to be rehashed.

[Bucky Dog]

Looking at the stats online it's not really that bad. Both teams are shooting 50%. There are only beating us because of 3 point FG, FT's, rebounds, steals, blocks and assists,*******

[msstate7]

You're not looking hard enough. I've never seen a team turn the ball over better than this team. Eli manning can't do any better

Ray May last thru the year, but I don't think Richard Williams will. There is some major disgust in his voice on the radio

a search committee would be my preference for the hiring of our next basketball coach. It would consist of a mixture of former coaches, former players, and a couple of large donors of the basketball program

[msstate7]

a search committee would be my preference for the next hiring of our next basketball coach

I don't even think it should be an option. Scott blew his chance to have a say so

[mic]

A search committee is a must . Esp if Scotty is going to use the same selling points as he did last time..

[grinnindawg]

What in the world happened to this team? They looked much better than last year's team at the first of the year.

Getting rid of Ray at this point will be problematic.

The pool of coaches willing to come to State was small when Ray came, it will be smaller now.

[Raytoraid83]

Exact opposite actually.

Ask Richard Williams. Hell anyone, but ray. Could it be worse? What would we lose by 30 to mcneese instead of 25?

[CadaverDawg]

http://skillgaming.de/img/gameshots/clown-hoops-gotya.jpg

[msstate7]

7:47 to go and we have 4 assists TOTAL!

[CadaverDawg]

What's the score? I turned that garbage off

[msstate7]

Oh and the "they play hard for ray" is bs. Richard Williams said they played with no effort in first half. I quit listening, but I doubt theyve started now

[msstate7]

What's the score? I turned that garbage off

53-32

[grinnindawg]

I've learned to never say the words "Could it be worse?". It can be.

Maybe a HS or Juco coach will be our option this time.

At least Coach Williams knew how to get teams to play defense.
He had other issues that made me not want him to represent our university again.

[Liverpooldawg]

Jeez, I thought my score center app had it backwards. We really are getting beat at home by 20 plus by a 6-5 ( I think) McNeese State team? I'm sure am glad we fired Stans so all our troubles in basketball would be over. Y'all were right, nobody cares enough about it now to be troubled about it. Suicide is never pretty.

[CadaverDawg]

53-32

Headed for another score in the 40's? Well, we're consistent.

Why would you even bring Stans up? This is about the Dogs of 2014-15. This is about Rick Ray and how He doesn't Have a clue. Pay Him off today and let's start over. pretty simple.

[tcdog70]

7:47 to go and we have 4 assists TOTAL!

I've been bashed for three years for pointing out we don't have a guard that can play for Delta State.

[shoeless joe]

What is the benefit of keeping him around til the end of the year?

[msstate7]

What is the benefit of keeping him around til the end of the year?

Some pipe dream that we could actually sign malik?

I can't think of one good reason to keep him. Newman is long gone

[tcdog70]

Thanks , I waiting for Mr. Useless Stat Man (Engie ) to give us seven pages of stats showing How much we have improved. All you have to do is watch the game to see shitty basketball.

[JOHNHEVESYMADE]

Joe Dooley for Head Coach.

[CadaverDawg]

Joe Dooley for Head Coach.

I would take Derek Dooley at this point*

[msstate7]

Hire Webster as coach. At least we'd get to see someone (malik) who can score 1 year

[HailState39110]

Can anyone relay Ray's comments post game about this performance?

"It's like this. We gotta like defend better like as a like team. We gotta like pass and like take better like shots..." *

[HailState39110]

The bad part is that was the most winnable game left on our schedule . Will we win another?

[Political Hack]

I would take Derek Dooley at this point*

I'll take any Joe or any Derek. Seriously, it can't get worse. You may think I'm kidding, but I could win more games as HC than this. It's that awful.

[drunkernhelldawg]

This has to be one of the worst episodes in our athletic history. i wonder if we've learned anything from it.

[msstate7]

I know you aren't kidding, and I am with you. I wish I knew what drug Scott was on to make him think that was a good hire.

[msstate7]

It's being a legend in your own mind. Thinking you know more than everyone.

Scott thought he was a genius. I bet Scott has been humbled a bit

Ha, I just said this same thing in another thread. I totally agree with you.

[JohnnyQuid]

We needed someone else so we could reach that next lvl guys, we weren't making it to/past the sweet 16***

[msstate7]

The thing I'm most pissed about it is our rpi after this game. We're really gonna struggle to get the nit now***

[Dawg61]

Fire Ray on Monday. Let him enjoy New Years and then give him his buyout on Monday. A gift wrapped brand new shiny turd.

[MadDawg]

That does not matter.

For all those Stans lovers that worry about wins/losses, the score is McNeese State -32, MSU -19;

Ray needs at least 2-3 more years to get his guys and his system in place. If you can't see the improvement, you are blind. ***
