Marlin looking for leadership in tough times

"Fundraising required" should be on the job application.

I think there's a difference between the way things are and the way it is.

Farmer used to say coaches shouldn't have to do this but I suppose other coaches want things bad enough to go get it. If I were a coach I wouldn't want to fundraise either. But there's an unwritten rule that you have to do so.

I don't really understand why the basketball isn't doing better, and if the team has weaknesses, why we don't have better teams.

It's a shame because men's basketball is what initially put us on the map. We just can't gain any traction. Or we have a promising end to a season and can't parlay that to a good start next season.

Other than Long, other teams we have played on the road this year are more talented than we are. It is that simple. Recruiting must improve significantly for the program to progress.

Lack of overall talent has been noticeable since Coach got here.
