The counterpoint to this would be Coach Heath. He did a great job here. Fell victim to the injury bug with a young team. Most of the players who left after he was fired went on to some good careers at some pretty good programs.

I do think the trigger was pulled too quickly on him. He did well in the G League. Guy was on a meteoric rise through coaching and then Arkansas inexplicably pulled the plug on him after back-to-back NCAA tournament appearances. Now he is back at his alma mater, Eastern Michigan. He has shown that he can make some noise in the MAC. I wish him well.

It was Harlan's first, or second, day on job, but I believe it came from higher up.

We can thank Harlan (yet again) for that one.

People forget this was a year removed from the best recruiting class in school history with Egbunu and Perry. Definitely way too quick of a trigger.

Edit: I guess John Lewis just clarified it for us so nevermind, it was the USF admin.

Offensively Murphy needs to be looking often for his shot.  Boggs and Greene need to be the 3 shooters.  McCreary and Chaplin are x factors that need to be looking to stress the defense around the paint by looking for cutting/slashing opportunities or offensive rebounds.  Tchewa needs to play bigger and more under control and use better footwork and position he could be a beast.  Josh Carlton is a tad smaller and played so much bigger last night.   I am not sure what the issue with Walker and Matos is with their playing time.  However,  Moss, Hines, Patrick and Smith need to really just be role players and not try to do too much.  Too many times there is such a drastic drop off in positive plays when these guys are on the floor.

Always liked Heath and agree that his teams just found ways to win games and it was crazy when he was let go.  Should not have been fired so quickly and had the administration given him the time like they are doing now maybe our program would be a in a better spot.  I don't know.

I haven't paid attention since Heath.  I was surprised he was fired.

I checked out on even half paying attention to BB after they let him go.

Judy had her fingerprints all over that one. I might have been Harlan who did the firing but it most certainly came from Judy

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
