It's a one game season. That is all that is guaranteed

Fair enough...let's beat Tulsa. Hope UCF can beat "red hot" Houston on their home court and then see what happens haha!

josh cant figure that out

this. Or how to sub when they need a blow. Or make them play D. That's the main reason I think we will lose first game. This team takes no pride in D. Not a lot of coaching to do on that end at this point. Just some adjustments he can't make.

Didn't you hear? Our offense triggers our defense


Gotta make shots

This should make everyone feel good about our chances for these 3-games ... STRATEGIC.

So many years later he just has to be messing with us to piss our fans off with comments like that...

Maybe he should set up an alter and burn the original of his contract as a sacrifice to said basketball gods.....

Preemptively throwing the players under the bus. Way to go coach!

He didn't really say that, did he? Please tell me this is a joke. There's no way a coach would actually say something like this. There's just no way.

Now that ECU is vanquished....

Really not worried about what the coach says in public.

I'm concerned about what is being said in private and practice.

Just need a win...

I think we can do this.

Classic...

Anything is possible.

A double digit Vanderbilt loss team with Kedren Johnson won the SEC tourney once upon a time.

The team is either ready or it's not. He's had all season to coach.

Think they had 2 NBA players on that team too. And Kedren was actually good.

Point is still valid tho.

Yep.

Seems like every year there's a 16-15 like team winning a conference tourney they have no business winning.

It's part of why we watch.

In Pastner's 7 seasons at the U of M, the Tigers have either won the conference tournament or lost their opening game. Just cleared opener!

still a one game season.

I'm hoping for a tournament win. They will beat Tulane. However, I'm watching the Tulsa game now and the Tigers don't execute consistently. They won with effort and good three point shooting. They will have to execute much better to beat Temple or UCONN.
