by Will Wade and, just my 0.02, but this would probably be a 0.500 series if it were multiple games.

I want whatever puts the program in the best position to win moving forward. I remember 20 years ago you would hear the argument about the extra practices. Not sure that holds much water anymore. And the whippings on national TV are awful!

McNeese was a 12 seed at the 2024 NCAAT , and kept it within ten @ #2 Alabama last Monday. Prior to McNeese, WilL Wade coached 7 seasons between LSU (5) and VCU. Take out the COVID year, so 6 eligible seasons, and that run includes 1 S16, 2 other R32s, and 2 more NCAATs. The one non-NCAAT year was NIT S16. I haven't really thought much about it, but I imagine Wade is in conversations about best coaches currently at MMs. Like, Top 5.

I miss pre-MAGA/black uni ADLER.

whelp. sucks to lose but maybe MS is a R32 level team.

If you can enjoy watching your team win, it can be fun. If your heart is set on avoiding the game of basketball, okay.

His name glowed while he was at A&M Commerce because 1) He was doing well there, and 2) there was a rumor tossed around that he dreamed of coaching at UNT. He's not doing so hot at SFA right now. I think people need to factor that in and reconsider.

I think we broke a big Wichita State streak a few years ago when we won at the Shockers' place.

Leech tree weakness.

Yep, with a guy who, by previous tenure in Denton, is a legend. Sometimes bad coaches succeed, and a good one fails. College football is weird.

New week new DC

My two cents: this termination was obviously needed, to the painful point where I don't think you need to to see how the fans feel about Caponi.

The "football is football" approach that brought in the DC from Southlake takes the cake for me. Just in terms of bad bad defense. This could be argued much worse, however, because of the financial investment. The Dodge era was the budget-friendly move. This era is not. We paid Caponi SO MUCH MONEY.

A personal fav: It was more "how" they lost. As other posters have commented, the offense has no flow, no purpose and zero situational awareness. The whole thing looks like a discombobulated goat rodeo, and I watched the second half of the second half, which was light years better than the first. They scored 3 baskets and 14 points in the first half. More turnovers than made baskets. That is next-level incompetence, and I can't believe all these players suddenly forgot how to play basketball at a high level. ...also, the obligatory "I was a 30+ year season ticket holder until I saw this mess" statement by a frustrated fan. Ever read that before?

Hit 6 is a bit on this board, based on the Canales era. Did I miss something, and it came from our current FB staff?

I voted for the UNT win, but UTSA upended Memphis two weeks ago. Crazy things happen.

I wouldn’t say an hour is plenty of time, but in my experience it is reasonable. Can cut it close in some places.

not wrong. Winning two easy games doesn't mean you're not ready for Prime Time.

9 point half? Yikes

This is a train wreck.

ESPN GAMECAST

Out of curiosity, do some of y'all like dedicated threads for individual articles? My personal preference - and I accept this isn't going to make sense to everyoine - is to have everything related to a game in one thread. For example, put this in the Army game thread. It makes finding things and researching down the line SO MUCH EASIER.
