RR Claps Back | Maggard Messaging | South Alabama Preview

[ManAboutTown]

You missed my main point about the Rebounders Club. All of those people will continue to support the program regardless of who is the coach. They think the program deserves support due to the players in it. That will continue next year and the year after that following a possible change. That would occur even if you were the coach. As far as being negative or positive, that is immaterial as far as a podcast is concerned as it is opinion. That does not bother me in the least as everyone is entitled to have their say. I do suggest getting all the information when you make comments. Following the first game of the year, you guys went over what happened. Everyone of you was surprised Kentrall Garnett started because you could not recall him playing whatsoever in 2021-22. Ya'll wondered if he was hurt. In fact he played quite a bit off the bench late in the year. In the last home game of the year over UTA which gave Coach Marlin some type of record, he had several big plays late in that game. I know that is being kind of picky but a suggestion going forward is to talk to someone who follows the team closely if you want to discuss actual play on the court and individual players. Discussing coaches is a different deal. I will agree with you that the people who disagreed with the recent decision would have done so if your podcast never existed. It has ZERO impact on those views or on the decision the administration made.

Yes, we were surprised that a walk-on started for a team that our head coach said was “the most talented he’s ever had.”

That should surprise anyone. It wasn’t about Garnett.

I am sure I will get lambasted for saying this, but to me this one line about the podcast making untrue statements was a little overplayed. You guys came off as having thin skins if that offended you enough to talk almost an hour about how you were being mistreated. I normally like the pod cast and agree with a lot of what ya'll say (including the need for a coaching change in basketball) but this stuff got a little old after about 10 minutes. I will continue to listen to the pods, but I hope you can keep it less about YOU and more about the issues. BTW, I felt like the "cult" stuff was a bit over the top. Fans are fans, (as in fanatics) and they do not always agree. That does not make them a cult.

As far as making it about us, I’m going to agree to a point. We defended ourselves, our podcast, our work, our opinion and our right to be fans. That isn’t exclusive to this situation. This whole RCC vs RR is a microcosm of a much larger problem within our fanbase. In our view, it was necessary to defend the fans that actually care about pushing for progress by having standards.

If I offended anyone, sorry, but I guess everyone has a right to an opionion right?

First and foremost, thanks for listening and I’m sure I can speak for the others when I say I’m glad you like what we do.

Also, it isn’t the first time that those people tried to talk down to the podcast. It was past time to address it.

Garnett starting surprised me as well. I think it surprised everyone. He started because he led the team in three point shooting percentage in the pre season workouts. It still surprised me due to his trouble at creating his own shot and although he gives full effort on defense, he is not as athletic as a couple of the other guys on that end. That was not my main point. My suggestion regarding getting your details correct was due to NONE of you having recall of the fact he played significant minutes at the end of the 2020-21 season.

The two threads at the top of the board are about 1) seven pages about Whether or not the podcast accurately or in accurately represented what somebody said, and 2) 38 pages that Marlin is coming back.

Great weekend for diamond sports being relegated to insignificance due to ____ing matches.

Well I’ll openly say, like the rest of the fanbase, I quit paying attention to basketball.

The two threads at the top of the board how about 1) seven pages about Whether or not the podcast accurately or in accurately represented what somebody said, and 2) and 38 pages that Marlin is coming back.

Great weekend for diamond sports being relegated to insignificance to die to ____ing matches.

It was a fantastic weekend at the Tigue!!

I will donate $100 to any program who hires Marlin.

I mean no one will really pay 600k+ for him even if we waived the buyout
