      I don’t think there is any doubt that our basketball team is not good.  Maybe the worst since coach K’s second year here.  How has he let this happen?  IMO, it is mostly because he loses good players every year.  We are not Duke and cannot bring in 5 new 5 star kids every year.

      He will not be fired this year and I am not saying that he should be.  We need to see improvement as this year goes on.  We need to see between 7-9 wins in conference.  (I know that isn’t good, but that would still be improvement.)  Next year, with the addition of new recruits – we need to be a top 40 team and get an NCAA bid.  If not – coach K should be let go at the end of next year IMO.

      Coach K had a couple of very good seasons.  But, he needs to keep improving and developing the team.  This year is bad.  This is not where our basketball program should be.  We had a rich basketball tradition.  I know we had fallen off the cliff before coach K got here and he helped get us respectable again.  But, this team is …  You fill in the blank.

      I’ll be up there tonight. There won’t be much traffic or parking issues. One advantage I guess.  🙁

      The difference between this team and his 1st of 2nd year team is this years team has talent they are just and inexperienced. Secondly there is no senior leadership. Barefield is not vocal enough to be a leader and PVD is not talented enough to be a leader.

      Larry is not innocent in all of this. His hard nosed Jerry Sloan old school my way or the highway attitude needs to change. If a player comes to you with a problem don’t tell the
      The door is that way if they don’t like it.

      As long as he can keep Gach Allen Tillman Battin and Lahat here for next year added the incoming talent this team will be pretty good going forward.
