Compared him to Lebron and basically said he has no business playing in college.
Vegas has Houston and so do I. I saw them lose at northwestern near the end of the regular season and I wanted to gouge my eyes out.

Houston is a much better team than OSU

No. I also think if we fired Cronin, he went to sweet sixteen somewhere else and we hired a fast paced offensive coach who was worse than Cronin, our fans wouldn't regret it either. Fans are irrational.

People would then complain that we couldn’t stop anybody from scoring. It’s just the nature of the beast.



There does come a time when maybe the school and the coach need fresh starts. I just mean this in general. We saw it play out with Marvin Lewis.


It doesn’t always work out for both sides either. Using the Rick Barnes example he had a run of 2 sweet 16s, 2 elite 8s and a final 4 in a 7 year span. Then the next 7 years didn’t get out of the first weekend. The fresh start worked out great for Barnes, sometimes it’s just not the school that need a change.

Man, the refs let Zion do anything... hammer guys, double dribble, nothing called against him. Guess he is so good they don’t want to call anything on him.

It’s terrible, I’ve seen him get away with multiple hacks
