This system is completely unsustainable.

And they are begging us to donate money to students that make more than we do.

Crazy.
And people wonder who is paying for the volleyball team to take tests for the basketball team… hell, the players are picking up the tab.

The truth will come out on this subject and the chips will falll they may but favoring to a longtime racist poster just because he’s been her a while is absolutely shameful

I get that this job is thankless and the pay is NIL but do better.

Racist? How so?

Now I know Malcolm is in the wrong if you’re defending him.

Reading comprehension also seems to be hard.

Just stating the fact that dysfunctional behavior on the court still remained even after his departure.

Changing a single variable may have reduced the frequency of the problem.

It didn't eliminate it.

Dysfunction is a ripple effect. Once the stone is thrown the ripples begin. You can go grab the stone from the pool and remove it but that does not stop the ripples from continuing...

when there is no pebble tossed nor wind to blow...

Uncalled for and spurious. And you do understand that the entire country is now racist, right? Why, even black people are now racists.

Same here. I've already decided that, barring some breakthrough in Penny's coaching philosophy, I won't be watching next season. I find myself, for the first time ever, looking forward to football more than hoops.

Did the bowl game get you excited ? Or the 4th place finish ?

Basketball won the AAC tournament just last year. Beating a number 1 seed in the final. Our memories sure are short.

And couldn’t win a game in the tourney. Memories aren’t that short lol
Basketball hasn’t done anything in a decade and half. Last 6 years - there has been drama every year. Very few basketball programs have drama every year. Penny’s lucky he’s Penny otherwise he would have been canned for mismanagement of the program.

Football program has been to a prime time bowl (Cotton). Under Silverfield we haven’t been great but the Liberty bowl win against a Big 12 team is prolly the best postseason win in either sport in the last half decade. Football has a better shot of taking the Access slot and the chance of being in a prestigious bowl game every year.

So you are for canning a guy that made the tournament 2 out of the last 3 seasons? Yet are ok with a bowl win after a 4th place finish? And hasn’t finished better than 4th since his first season which was cut short ?

Once again if Penny wins only 8 games he’s getting fired too.

I support the coaches and players and they got me excited. I thought we looked great in our last game against Iowa State. Looking forward to getting more than 10 wins in 2024. GTG.

All good. I just don’t want to hear about lack of NIL when we lose these conference games next season
