If Sly Croom had landed Ryan Perilloux we wouldn't be #4 in football right now. We wouldn't have Dan Mullen. Maybe when the writing is on the wall it's best to read it.

It really doesn't matter what 2000-2001 was like for our coach. It's 2014. Ray must win. Wether it's 2000, 2014 or 2024. No excuses. Stop making excuses for him. First it was no bench. Then it was no boosters. Now it's no fans and just wait till he signs Newman and when true freshman (not ESPN top 150 )get here in 2016. Whatever you can do to extend Ray's clock you'll do it.

If you were in Scott's shoes, would you fire ray now or wait till he loses a game this year?

The first actual names called in both instances were your buddies Curly and Larry. But I don't guess I should be surprised when you see what you want to see. At some point, calling someone a dumbass is far more efficient than descriptively spelling out why those people are dumbasses in every single basketball thread in attempt to provide lessons that they never learn(because they are dumbasses). Yet this description and analogy will(again) escape you -- as I've already spelled this out for you in the most excruciating detail already this week. Surprise, surprise -- no lesson learned -- and back for more. Ex ?11? of dubmassery. Sorry I'm losing count.

But you are going to fight me IRL -- so I should probably slow my roll**


If you are hesitant to post, that's a step in the right direction as far as I'm concerned.


You haven't been around Coach for very long have you?


I don't ruin threads for people disagreeing with me. I CONTRIBUTE to their ruin for people being dumbasses. There's a big and clear difference. Fact is -- at this point -- I don't consider any of the 4 of you intelligent enough to have an actual basketball conversation with. If you are, you certainly can't convey intelligence through a keyboard. You've proven otherwise too many times. On the other hand -- I've got a number of respectful basketball conversations going on with people that can convey intelligence, even in this very thread. If you want me to have adult conversations with you -- form a decent adult opinion and don't post anything overtly ridiculous.


Seeing what you want to see.


We know. Although you can't actually tell us why you think it without saying dumb and historically incorrect things that, like a scab to me, must be picked.


That much we can agree on.

keep up the good work. We might even start an Engie Fan Club. You are definitely #1 with the bubble post. No one else can hold a candle to Engie. Your two state championship rings were you the manager?

No- I've stated about 200 times he is going to get 4 years for sure. And then we will see where we are. The admin doesnt even count that 1st year and I agree with them- it was throw away

He'd get this year regardless but as of right now it'd be his last year and I'd already be working on the replacement.

I wouldn't have hired Ray in the first place. Bad. Hire. I think we should all be concerned with Stricklin moving forward if Mullen were to ever leave I would be scared to death of him hiring a replacement coach.

I would have used to agreed with you, but... I feel he knocked it out of the park with Vann and Vic. I realize they are both women's sports, but those two are monster coaches. I'm going to be bold here and say the women's basketball team will make it to the Final 4, 3 or 4 years from now if Vic stays. That team is young and talented. Please, go watch them if you have the chance. Trust me, I'm not affiliated with the team at all. Just know when a coach puts an excellent product on the court. And yes, I just helped this thread go from a basketball commit to Scott's hiring of the women's coach.
