Hang up the shoes?

With yet another miserable performance under our belts I see no way of an NCAA birth. I simply dont see where the wins are going to come at this point. So frustrating.

Like Hammer said "Schools in, sucka".

Not sure if we need the right kind of guys, or the right kind of coach. Something needs to change. It's bad on offense and defense.
Like Lumberjack (and where the hell did that name come from?) always says "You aren't going to win in the BE making 60 ppg.

I'd just wait until the last game to make any judgements. The league is a gauntlet. Did I think we'd be better by now? Yes. But they are 14-8 and 5-5 in the league. They can beat Marquette and Depaul. Hopefully they can grit 2-3 other wins out as well. Unlikely yes, but ya never know.

Welllllll, luckily there are still a lot of games to be played but unfortunately I also do not know where the wins come from. I certainly don't see one on Sunday. I've told my fellow UC fans all season that the one game in the Big East we do not stand a chance is Cuse.

Heres to hoping for some big upsets in Feb/March and not another meltdown. Not sure where we go after this game....ugly on ALLLL accounts. Absolutely disgusting!

I had my dancing shoes ready after Maui, but the season has only been a major letdown since then. Put them back in the closet.

All I can think about is Beasley, Walker, Mayo, Downey wearing the Jordan UC jerseys. Keep thinking, What if.

First of all, Beasley and Mayo would not have come to UC if Huggins stayed.

Secondly, if Mayo would have come, we would have serious NCAA problems right now.

Thirdly, I don't really understand where this type of thinking gets you. I can understand being upset with the program right now, but even if Mick is fired, Huggins is not coming back to UC. Holding on to his memory really does no good when it comes to thinking about the current state of the program.

I get this thinking, but where can they grit out 2-3 other wins? And I'm not so sure about Marquette, they have had some very close losses with some of the best the BE has to offer, which leads me to believe they can play with the best of them. There are other opportunities, but it certainly will be a battle.

I know this mindset isn't good, but is UC now playing for a better seed in the Big East tourny, try to get a little easier path. No path is easy, but it I think UC may be playing for a seed in the BE tourny at this point.

Idk man, I'm just an optimistic guy. Syracuse comes to the Shoe Sunday, on paper we don't matchup very well. But then you lace em' up and start playin' and it's 29-32 at the half...

On paper, Syracuse is going to make us look bad. I'm not sure how things will differ on the court. However, Mick's teams usually play good teams tough and lose to teams they have a solid chance of winning.
