UNT90 · April 18, 2015

Nope...wrong again, but since you are such a one trick pony these days, no use even discussing it with you.
See Mike Peterson for example. But, you dismiss that as he got fired. Keep that head buried directly in the sand and never ever expect those responsible for actually playing to be accountable for anything. It's that attitude that creates the spoiled, look at me, athlete we see too much of these days.

They aren't responsible for team performance, the coach is. The coach is also the person that recruits these young men to the program. It is THEIR responsibilgy to get the most out of them.

I understand your criticize in private, praise in public approach, the problem I have is when you only apply that approach as long as the coach is employed at UNT and are more than happy to baste their carcass the moment the hammer drops.

You should really stick to not criticizing at all if that is the moral gauntlet you choose to throw down.

Wrong yet again. My moral compass is just fine. I have always said and always will...as long as they are coaching at UNT they are my school's coach, thus my coach. And my criticism will remain private. Once they are no longer my coach and UNT's coach it is a different matter completely...especially if they leave UNT on their own.

So...if I have criticized a current coach on this board I would appreciate you showing me that post...that would be a deviation for me.

That has been and will be my position and you know that as we have spoken together about that more than once. So...you are just wrong again..nothing much new there when it comes to tossing out responsibility.

Glad you feel coaches can win without the players. Maybe we should just suit up coaches and save all that scholarship money. Me, once they are on the court or football field the players are the ones who win or lose. Coach can't shot that free throw, make that proper pass, hit that layup or play defense. They can call plays, sub players in and out, yell instructions, etc., etc. but the players have to execute. Funny, I have never seen a coach win or lose a game without players on the floor actually playing the game. If there are players, they are responsible how they play.

But, for you...I get it...only the coach is held responsible and he/she is 100% responsible for everyone's actions on and off the court. Got it.. We all "got it" when it comes where you stand. No sharing responsibility in your book which is where I stand and where probably most stand. Shared responsibility...such a hard concept for you to understand. But carry on...only at North Texas right...might want to ask K State about that one.

Do you not understand the way it looks when the moment a coach is fired you start criticizing said fired coach, when just days before you were vocally 100% behind said coach?

How can anyone value anything you post on here if that is the case?

But, I will say I am dying for the day RV leaves and your posts the week immediately after... ?

Again...I don't care how it looks...but please show me a post where I have done that? Come on...obviously you don't care how your endless broken record posts look in every thread...always the same...either. Why should I care? But, I'll wait here until you can find my critical post.

Again... once you leave and especially if you leave on your own...once that happens...thanks for your service, but adios! Good luck in the future, not my coach any longer. It's not that I immediately don't like you, heck, no, it's just that I don't care one way or the other. Have no interest in following their careers anywhere else...who cares? I laugh each time I read one of the posts here drooling over some long gone ex-UNT coach. Who cares? But, if you want to follow their career, great, go buy a tee-shirt and a few tickets and hit the road following your now favorite ex-coach. I could not care less. It's just funny to me how some want to use ex-coaches to criticize their university. Get that...the university from which they graduated and claim...claim to support. Again...go buy the t-shirt and hit the road. Your choice. Heck, some Don't watch UNT games anyway, so no one will miss them if they become that t-shirt fan.

Back at least with something involved with topic, does anyone know what the scholarship status is for WBB? I have seen were Petersen either signed or committed to 5 recruits, 3 in OK and 2 in Tx. Vito mentioned only 2 unnamed commits by Pedersen.
