I would suspect that Mike isn't saying much here because he knows what is being said. He has also told us, to exhaustion, that all of our complaining will do nothing as Marlin is in no danger of being removed here as the administration and a cell of diehard contributors love him here and it would take several years of disappointment to force them to make a change. The problem is that after a few years of something like this year there won't be a lot of fans remaining.

Hey did you forget to mention the quote about why they shot poorly in the game? They got less court practice time due to the mens and women's tournament being held there. We finished 6-22 from 3. Problem is that we have shot like that much of the year. There were games we won at home where we only hit 6 3's. The scary thing looking at next year is that we couldn't beat USA with Gant going for 26 & 12 and JD going for 17. We lose the best player in the conference and the best facilitator and some people think that Julien and Johnson will be enough to make up for these losses by themselves.

I think we need to get better defensively on the perimeter--we gave up too many open looks and also drives for layups.
Re: Fire Coach Bob Marlin Now!
Meanwhile, UTA has gone 14 minutes plus without a FG in the finals. The ONLY positive about GAST winning is our conference missies the dreaded “first four”matchup. GAST not looking great, should be up by more.

Also, on the other side. I cannot name one major upset by Big Fish in his tenure. His teams have had NBA players, SunBelt POYears, and his teams can't ever get an upset or lose key games at end of seasons. We have got to be able to get at least one big upset every other year and win at the end when it counts.
He had two upsets in a row to get to the NCAA. Both those games he got his players to come back and win in miracle fashion.

Does Marlin make more than Hunter?
