    This is a common misnomer based on an outright lie.

    - Why isn't LSU winning big? They signed a 5* SF, a 4* PF, and a 4* PG last year among 6 total signees. Why aren't they lighting the woods on fire? Are we going to pretend Jones took over a worse team there than Ray did at MSU? Probably not, huh?

    - Why isn't Arkansas winning big? They signed a 5* PF and high 4* C last year. What gives?

    - Why isn't Bama winning big? They signed a high 4* C and high 4* PF last year. What's up with it?

    - Why isn't Tennessee winning big? They signed a 5* SG and had a highly-sought transfer from Memphis to go along with all the talent already there. What's their problem?

    Do you need me to keep going?


    And you base all this on an outright lie.
    1) i said that's why people were willing to i've cohen more rope, not that people were content. sure some people were already fed up, but most were willing to wait and see another year or 2. i never once said it guaranteed cohen would turn things around, just that if he's done it before elsewhere, people will put more faith in him to turn it around here even after a slow start.

    2) lsu is 16-10 and playing for a NIT bid. arkansas is 18-9 and playing for a NIT bid. bama's coach is a dead man walking and came into the season on the hot seat. that's been known for awhile. he's lost the team. tennessee is 16-11 and playing for a NIT bid. it's also worth noting the SoS here. lsu is 66, arkansas is 79, bama is 3, and tennessee is 12. our SoS is 171. the lowest in the conference by nearly 50 spots. i also never said we'd be setting the world on fire with 1 superstar, i said with 1 superstar and our current players in supporting roles instead of leading roles would make us an NIT team. we'd probably not be that far off from lsu, arkansas, and tennessee, albeit with a much worse schedule so maybe a few more Ws. the fact that you try to use arkansas, tennessee, and lsu to disprove my comment is ****ing laughable really since those are essentially the teams i said we could be on par with with a superstar talent to center our current roster around. sure you aren't guaranteed success, and that's why the coach gets fired, like what's gonna happen in bama in a couple of weeks.

    3) how is that a lie? coach34 says the admin is preventing ray from recruiting the AAU circuit like a major conference program should. if the admin is pulling that on ray, then that's too bad for him. he needs to get in there and tell them he's going to start hitting the AAU circuit like his competitors, because if he doesn't he's gonna get his ass fired anyway. if strickland fires him on the spot, then so be it, he was already destined to get fired anyway by signing kids away from usm and unc-wilmington.
