Appreciate the thought and what you are saying there. Fans of all programs are absolutely bonkers and have, seemingly, very little tolerance for coaches, players, programs, ADs and the like who may not be peforming to their perceptions and (unreal) expectations. Can't say how many times on many boards I have seen "lack of effort", "outcoached", "can't beat a D2", "mid major player, coach (insert whatever) at a high major school""what is our offensive (or defensive) philosophy". All those are comments made in emotional states by many who are not analysing and are venting or placing blame on coaches who do not go out on the floor and execute the game plan or they can't actually see what is going on and why. In any case, just got to take the rowl and rabble with the moment and keep the eye on the prize. You are right. The coaches and players all want to do well. The way they are approaching thngs is not always together and personalities are often clashing. Moulding the team and coming together is how you get there. We are aways away.

I aam flabbergasted you have not seen a game this year. That leaves a big void in the point of reference in the future and regarding the past. There are a lot of times I find my voice quiet on a subject because I was not here. Seems odd to read the board and not be interested enough to watch the product.
