This is the dumbest shit I've read in awhile. Well, besides every other basketball post that a handful of you make. This team beats Troy and Loyola. So, we're at 8-4 with last year's nonconference schedule.Quote:

I'll take 5 or under for 1K.Quote:

Applewhite can be replaced fairly easily and if it's Devonta Pollard we get now than this ends up being a big upgrade in talent.
Can Hud coach Basketball?
By the way, I've been done with college basketball an basketball in general for a few years. I just don't like the culture of the sport.
This will probably be the last post I ever make on this sport.
It's pointless to argue about this right now. Lets continue this conversation at the end of February
So now we are saying this is a great improvement because we are winning more with agutted schedule. Great analysis. Our RPI is right at 150 and SOS is near 300. But let's be thankful that we were in a game with folks like Prairie View with 3 minutes left. Let's be glad that of the 4 recruits we had last year only one is playing. Oh wow we are 9-3. And have to offer free tickets and pizza to get people to come. Oh Hail Rick Ray.
All without our starting point guard and the key to our offense. But don't let facts get in the way of your agenda...Quote:

Does Ray have Crean's resume? Nice, I thought he was the bench coach for a Clemson team that missed the NCAAT.
Warren nolen says different. Some will take another year to realize what a shitty coach and guy Ray is. Oh well continue being an idiot.Quote:

This team is going to go 7-11 or 8-10 in the SEC. Bookmark it and let me know when I'm wrong
Nice straw man bullshit.Quote:

Which has what to do with anything? Resume doesn't mean SHIT. Results do -- and it is what it is at this point.Quote:

Are you ****ing stupid enough to imply that it is easier to win at MSU than Indiana? Why, then, did it take Crean 4 years to get it going at a national powerhouse program? I mean -- it should be a 5 minute rebuild, right? Why didn't he have them in the tournament in year 2?
we have absolutely the worst fans in college sports. i know all schools have their share of complete clowns, but it's really not even close. look no further than this ****tard for proof.Quote:

I keep forgetting I'm talking to someone who rode the short bus to school. Indiana was on probation for Crean's first 3 years with recruiting sanctions to deal with. He inherited a team with ONE returning scholarship player. They were dealing with death penalty worries and Sampson got nailed. They had 7 players transfer.Quote:

Wanna try again "idiot"?
With the same amount of RPI improvement next year that we've seen thusfar this year = borderline NCAA Tourney Team = RIGHT ON SCHEDULE.
We "peaked" at #224 in RPI last year.

We've gone up between 80 and 100 spots this year.

If I would've known that this would've turned into a pissing match I wouldn't have posted this thread. But since this has turned into a damn pissing match, I'm about sick and tired of y'all. As many of you know, I watch the basketball games religiously and listen to it on the radio when I can't watch. I've noticed an improvement with this team from last season. Are they still frustrating as hell to watch at times? You're damn right. Does this mean that we are as bad as last year? Hell no. Did any of us realistically think that we would make any sort of tournament this year? I can guarantee you that NO ONE thought we would make a tournament and no one has predicted so yet this year. So what's the point of this pissing match? To see who can influence the administration to keep/fire RR? Well I can tell you that none of y'all will be able to determine that. And yes, they are doing gimmicks to put asses in seats. But they did the same exact thing during Stansbury's last year to put butts in seats due to the piss-poor performance of the team down the stretch. I've been with the team through the highs, and you bet your ass I was one of the few students who stayed during every single slaughter that we were at the hands of during the bad years. Why? Because I bleed MSU and I will always support the basketball team. I can bet that most of you can't say that. I can be that most of you would have walked out at halftime during a slaughter, and don't say you wouldn't because I know how you people are. You talk like you're the greatest fans in the world and as if you know all there is about basketball. Then you walk out on the team at halftime and YOU'RE the reason why the team is demoralized game in and game out. Fans like you are the reason why I want to punch people in the face. Extreme? Maybe. My true feelings? You're damn right.

You are literally too stupid to see the similarity in the situations aren't you?Quote:
