And on top of all of that....I just feel like we've still got an interim coach. He speaks and acts like he is an assistant trying to play the role of head coach IMO. I remember people comparing him to Cuonzo Martin, but in my opinion Cuonzo carried himself more like a Head man than Ray has early on. I guess I just see a lack of confidence, and too many excuses so far...and it reminds me of Croom a little.

Hopefully a deeper roster and a little better talent will bring more confidence and better results this year. I would love nothing more than to be dead wrong about Ray. I'll pull for him like hell this year, and we'll see what happens. But I also won't sugarcoat things if they're bad, just like none of us sugarcoat things in other sports when they're bad either. Excuse train needs to pull out of town in year 3
