You'd be the leader in roasting Stansbury if he ever scheduled an OOC as bad as 344th. I like Howland but this OOC scheduling can't ever happen again.Quote:

Howland is in year 3 and trying to have a winning record. Stands wasnt. A winning record had to happen 1st and foremost. A tougher schedule would have meant more losses because of our weakness and inexperience in the post.Quote:

Ok, I am game for your rationale from a HC standpoint. You are the HC at end of 2016/2017 season and working in the early summer setting teams to play. Explain the thought process you would use to determine the 2017/2018 scheduling and how that helps develop your team for success over next 2 years 2017/2018 and 2018/2019. I enjoy the nuts and bolts of how decisions are determined. Not looking for a quick response 1 sentence answer. Give plenty of detail.
We can still be 10-1 and not have the 344th ranked OOC schedule. Schedule teams ranked 80-150 on Kenpom and we'd have a much much better SOS. Fact is Howland has failed to get our NCAA tourney resume ready and has failed to get us ready to compete in the SEC. Auburn, aTm, Arkansas, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama are all going to skull**** us. We have zero shot vs those teams because Howland hasn't spent the last two months getting us ready to play them. He's been babying our players like always and it doesn't do them any good. It's not complicated. Howland babies his players and that includes lying to them about how good they are by scheduling a joke OOC schedule so they can be 12-1 headed into the SEC gauntlet. When you baby players you get spoiled brats like Newman, Kegler, Peters, Eli and Singleton. You also get players that don't improve one bit like Herard. I keep telling y'all this but to get the best outta your team you have to be the type of personality that they don't really like you all the time. Nobody likes their strength coach while they are lifting weights. You aren't supposed to. Until Howland can get a little more Bobby Knight in him we are just going to be walking through the motions in basketball.
That's just damn 17'n dumb!!!! I don't call posters out hardly ever but this statement Dawg61 is nothing but foolish.Quote:

Bookmark my post. We won't get 1 win vs those seven teams and it's because Howland hasn't prepared us to play them.Quote:

Totally unacceptable we didn?t schedule at least 1 or 2 roads BEFORE weQuote:

If you put any credence in ESPN FPI, we are more likely to be 0-2 than 2-0. We are predicted to lose both by about 60%Quote:

Dawg61 is right for 1 time in his life. This basketball team is still very bad.

This response is what I was referring to the other day when I made that thread titled ?It all makes sense now?. I get it, it?s bad to watch, but it?s effective. We?re an ugly, grind it out, defensive team but we will be solid. We will finish top half of SEC this year and then will compete for the overall SEC championship next year, watch.Quote:

The purpose of the OOC schedule is to get you prepared to play the SEC schedule and to get your resume right for the NCAA tourney. You don't get better when you don't challenge yourself.Quote:
