I'm sure some computer skilled fan could look up the minutes we had the ball in our 3 losses verses our opponent. My best guess is that our defense was on the field 60% of the time.

I'll be calling out players on twitter this week. They need accountability. That said, DW did not help us with his interceptions.

Love the -1's for telling truth and being realistic. Keep em coming.

If you think DW is even partially to blame for this game might I suggest basketball watching. Superpit doors open soon.

I dont think so. I'll guess they've been on the field around 55% or less of the minutes in the games we lost.

I thought about that after LaTech because our defense didn't start breaking until the 2nd quarter. IU's first 2 or 3 scores are inexcusable. 14-0 before "tired" becomes an excuse.

I still can't get over how funny this post is

'I'll be calling out players on twitter this week. They need accountability"

i'm sure a tweet from 'cdizzle' is going to help him turn things around this week

seems pretty delusional

Front 7 got manhandled. I remember in high school practice when somebody got trucked like that we'd yell "weight room". Our front 7 need to get over to Kevin Patrick and the cafeteria double time.

When is McCarney going to be held responsible? Year 37? I don't want to be 60 hearing people talk about a bowl "championship" over UNLV way back when. Player accountability needs to be addressed, sure. But there's a bigger picture here.

I think we got you out if the negatives! . Folks see what they want to see. Their personal prejudices are showing when they cannot see the minuses along with the positives.

Dajon is our best option...no question. But, he has a long way to go to be the QB that he has the potential to become. When we all look back on his RS Freshman year when he is guiding the Mean Green to victory after victory in his junior and senior seasons we will all clearly see the difference experience makes. He will indeed, and already has, made freshman inexperience-type mistakes. If one cannot see that, they are either blind or just too prejudiced to admit it. It is what it is this year....a time for learning how to be a D-1 QB. And, learn he will. It will be fun to watch.

See, we can agree. ;-)

      Of course he's open to HS players in future cycles. Pitino knows things change on a yearly basis. It's just disingenuous of you to say "Auburn is No 1 and recruits HS kids" when their number 1 ranking has very little to do with recruiting HS kids. When I look at the top teams in the country, most are led by at least one transfer. Duke is an exception but they have the number 1 prospect in the country. If you want to argue that in theory a team led by mostly guys recruited from HS could be number 1 in the country then sure. Duke could win it all this year with the number 1 NBA prospect. For everybody else who isn't getting the top NBA prospect out of HS, all data points to the transfer portal as being the best way to build a team.

      Thinking about the Super Pit....

      Seats aren’t going to be removed because the university needs it for graduation and they own the bldg. The east side entrance mall needs to be “dressed up” with string lights, lights in trees, vendors, food, music, refreshments, etc. on game days. The concourse needs to be livened up. Pop up bars, store similar to the one at DATCU that can be accessed from inside the SP and outside, information on the MGSF, music, monitors showing the game when in line for concessions, more efficient concessions, etc.

      And they aren't ruling out HS studs to fill some of those future voids. https://www.espn.com/college-sports/basketball/recruiting/player/_/id/252088/sebastian-williams-adams I'm not saying the current climate doesn't favor transfers - it does. I just believe you look everywhere for the players that best serve your purpose. If there's a guy out there coming out of HS that fits a need perfectly, sign him. And our stud transfers are leaving, too, if not graduating. So, either way, you're getting 1-2 years of contribution. majority college coaches are still recruiting HS players. Even the Pitino stuff doesn't read like he's completely closed the door. Lots of "this cycle" and "this year" when looking at the entirety of those articles/quotes, like he's potentially open to HS players in future cycles.
