With all due respect newbull, this argument is full of holes... We lose our "best" players every year to graduation...same comments about Swift, Leather and Bryant - but those were Seth's kids and allegedly RMC had no one to replace them, yet SoJo is possible an NBA Draft Pick. So yeah, he reloaded on short notice, and will likely do so again. *Re-loaded on short notice??? How do you re-load and go 7-22...I think the term you're looking for is regress. Jones isn't a pro (NBA). Mattis can score - significantly better when in the paint than outside the paint. He had some double figure games to add to his rebounding. *If you think you can win with Mattis as your 4 man in the big east your crazy. I don't think the question about RMC is what he has done in the community, i.e. helping little old ladies cross the street, but instead the integrity he brings to the program and the student-athlete he aims to deliver - not to mention the committment to the team he requires. *CRM's job is to win games. It is the job of student athlete services to make sure these kids do their work and stay on track towards graduation. The program is lifeless there is zero buzz. I am positive RMC feels the pressure and is working to build a program...Seth was trying to get out for years. *Like I said Seth was a bad coach, who is probably trying to get out as this is a big year for him. RMC is our coach and no amount of disbelief changes that at this point. He's got at least another year ahead of him, and we'll have to see how it plays out

I have been reading this board for quite some time and have decided to post. The basketball program and CRM are an absolute disaster. Our two best players have graduated. Our point guard is coming back from ACL surgery. Verdejo hasn't played a meaningful minute in 2 1/2 years. Buckley is softer than Carvel. Mattis couldn't score at Mons Venus. There are two openings on the coaching staff. In the past three years MAC has either lost or fired 4 assistants. He has lost or kicked off 9 players. S Bien - I saw Radenko at the New Tampa Y. Prek left to go overseas for $40,000...hardly hundreds of thousands of dollars. The editorial in the tribune was a joke. Dmince was right what has he done in the community since coming to Tampa? Zero testimonials. USF has zero prescence in the State of FL. In four years he has signed two high school players. Caan an overweight undersized four man coming off two ACL's and Dante Curry who chose us over GA State and Mercer. Seth had some renegades but who doesn't. He also had some greta character kids...Cedric Smith, Reggie Kohn, Jimmy Baxter, Chonsey Asbury, Mike Bernard, Will MacDonald, Brian Swift, Marlyn Bryant, Brian Lamb, Andrick Fraizer, Scott Johnson. The positives out weigh the negatives by far. Seth was a bad coach who had a Great recruiter in Z. Botom line Seth and CRM will eventually be unemployed CRM in 1 year and CSG in 2. So next season when were 5-13 and 1-8 in the league and seton Hall roles in on a Tuesday and we have 983 people at the game think about who is going to be our next coach because it certainly won't be Robert.
