At this point, the only people regretting the Albins' adventure in Charlotte are the Albins themselves. Dumbest negotiators ever. I wanna play poker with Tim.

I rewatched the end of yesterday's game. Surprise - the players who acted like jackasses during handshakes were Hadaway and Simmons.

Looks to me like Simmons is holding back Hadaway. And that's not the first time he's taken that duty on.

If suggestions that it's an assistant coach lighting fires ahead of whatever that was in the handshake line are accurate... that's a problem.

It definitely seemed like it started with assistant coaches, then Hadaway came in and it got worse. This is at least the 5th or 6th handshake line that fell apart this season.

I think labeling the entire team unlikable crybabies is too much. Hadaway is a problem and it just keeps happening over and over and the coaches don't even try to control it. Simmons has had his fair share of moments too. I do appreciate Aidan as a good player with a lot of love and loyalty for Athens, but his departure will go a long way to resetting our culture.

I've said before the coaches can easily cultivate a victim mentality throughout the team when they do too much whining about the refs. I really think our opponents often play better than they are, and I think Hadaway & others feed into that. We give the other team more fire and drive to beat our brains in. These are all cultural problems that need controlled by the coaching staff. I realize this may sound ridiculous after we attracted 2 opponent sin Simmons & Conners...but this unlikable culture also can't help our image and efforts in the portal era.

I'm trying to figure out how we got a 5 for 9 from 3 night from Sheldon and still lost easily to a team that has struggled as much as ODU has. Pavs wasn't scoring but had 11 assists and just 2 TOs. The easy answer is everyone other than Sheldon was 3 for 16 from 3 while we once again allowed our opponent to shoot well from 3, and boy they hit their free throws.

This loss, Bethune Cookman, and Ball State are the most upsetting results of the season. Flip those results and the season looks a lot different, but as is this season is definitely heading to the 2nd straight disappointing and underachieving season.

And the biggest story of all is JJ Kelly's injury. He couldn't put weight on his leg and had to be helped off. JJ's emergence has been the best thing about this season, if he is out it is hard to have any level of optimism and excitement for the stretch.

How can you say Pavs is not athletic?

Pavs and Sheldon hold their own athletically but they are capped b/c of size and become a 1:1 defensive issue.

You have no idea what went on! Have you ever once spoke to Coach Albin? Did you speak to long time radio guy Russ to see why he is no longer in Athens? If you actually talked to those people you would find out why they aren’t working at Ohio. Ask a few others who worked in
the department, why they left. No you won’t do that. That takes effort. You would rather bash and ridicule a former two time coach of the year who brought unprecedented football success to Ohio University. Keep singing the praises of the former female AD who rewarded the mens basketball coach with top salary for annual fifth seed performances.
