if this team and the 98 team played each other it would look like a high school game. I,m sure a team like oak hill academy or evewn Columbus northland couild beat this team I can almost see home games with fans leaving after the halftime show like the days when the football rarely won a game. I wonder if villinova could drop 200+ points on this team. we need a new coach and new system pronto

When we have majority of our talent sitting out the whole season and the rest playing hurt or missing a few games, you won’t be good. Look at last season, we lost Campbell and the last minute Simmons left to make a NCAA tournament team in Michigan. Harley and Momprier left too. The Ozone is not an Ozone, more like an Old Zone. We need the 6th Man back along with the Green and White club selling Spilt the Pot tickets. It’s just not our season.

Larry Hunter would go 18 - 10, 20 - 13, and 19 - 11 after his 5 - 21 season, only to be fired anyways. People might have forgotten, but Dick Vitale raged against Ohio on National Television for firing Larry Hunter at that time and questioned what kind of negative impact this would now have on the future of Mid-Majors.

And Tim O'Shea's worst team in 2003-04 when the Bobcats were 10-20 came a season before his best one when the Bobcats were 21-11 and won the MAC. It's important not to overreacted to one bad season.

But it's two bad seasons ... in four years ... sandwiching disappointing MAC Semifinal losses.

I agree it's a tad bit overreaction ... but I also this it's a warranted question ... just how good is Saul? For better or worse ... he really only has one more year to answer that question.

That's the reality when you're paid to be the best in the MAC and your team is currently the worst.

+1

Though overreaction is one of things we do best on BA. To use an over worn and soon to be very trite expression, it's in our DNA!
