Temple loss may be the last straw.

I don't see how this today was any different than most of the season, so I don't think the result was unexpected. 

 

A couple thoughts - 

 

Martino Brock was my unexpected MVP of this team (the award will probably go to Rudd, but if I got a vote it would be Brock). 

 

Rudd has some serious ups and scoring 1000 points in only 3 years is very impressive. 

 

I can't wait to watch the two bigs over the next 3 seasons. 

 

We need 2 guys who are pure shooters. 

 

Leday, Hawkins and Musa all need to step up. (Leday got better towards the end of the year) - I wouldn't be shocked if 1 or 2 of those 3 aren't here next year, transferring to a school that will give them more time. 

 

The 18 point blown lead made it a little different but the result wasn't a real surprise. I don't think Hawkins or Musa got in the game today. Didn't hear pre or post game ... was anything mentioned about that? 

 

 

I know what you are saying, but haven't we been blowing big second half leads a lot lately.

I'm thinking Musa is gone.  Heath seems to really hound LeDay but I'm thinking that is because he thinks he has the talent.  And I'm one of the few that is still holding out hope on Hawkins.

 

 

I'm still holding out hope for Hawkins, too, but with the new bodies that will be available next year, hopefully he'll get his chance ...

By the way .... I'm giving myself props today. I got a call reversed today. 

 

Temple fouled, player makes a jumper, ref waves off the shot, then awards the player 2 free throws, even though Temple wasn't in the bonus. Ref closest to me, I was yelling it was impossible the way he called it, if the shot didn't count, then Temple doesn't get free throws. He came over, and took a point off the board and gave Temple the ball out of bounds. 

 

Stan yelled too, but I was closer and louder and started before Stan.

I'm on the bus.

 

Even if he wins the durned AAC tourney and goes to the Final 4, I'm done with him. But we all know he won't.

 

We are now in "win or go home home" mode, so fire him the morning after his next loss. Payout or no.

Good job Mike.  What part of the game was that?  One thing about not being in our normal seats today was missing out on this. Proud of you.
