We need to shake up this staff, not calling names. We need a change after some huge recruiting misses this year.
Did we fire Wayne Morgan when he said to pass on Ralondo Blackman? Did we fire anyone when we missed on Perkins, Mashburn, Anderson, Marbury, Hodge, Morning, Liberty, Rose, Mills, etc., all of whom were more highly touted than Green? No.We need to shake up this staff, not calling names. We need a change after some huge recruiting misses this year.
Seriously, we missed out on one player we went all in on. Green is a great player, but by no means is he a program changer. In the words of Aaron Rodgers...R E L A X !!!!!We need to shake up this staff, not calling names. We need a change after some huge recruiting misses this year.

Yeah Hop did a horrible job with Rak.Wouldn't mind a quality big-man coach for the low post guys...
What. We'll be alright.
I love when posters give a single example to justify a position... Maybe a better low post coach gets Rak going in his sophomore year for us, instead of a worthless senior season.Yeah Hop did a horrible job with Rak.
lol Really? Well, at least you didn't call out any names. I doubt you will ever be in a position to make decisions like that on other peoples lives.We need to shake up this staff, not calling names. We need a change after some huge recruiting misses this year.
And what do you so when the kid says so you are saying I have to decide now. Okay. I'm not going to Syracuse. See ya. Maybe it makes you feel good but it doesn't help you in the long run. Or he could have said I'm going to Syracuse and then flipped at the last minute. Either way, it comes out the same in the end.I've wished for a non-cuse voice on the staff—some different sets of experiences and skill sets, but it's like all star voting complaints: who you gonna kick off and why? Who doesn't deserve to be there?
Plus, the rationale is flawed. Green strings us along and flips, and that's the staff's fault? A kid got seduced to The Dark Side. That first happened a long time ago... and it can happen to anyone. If you're insisting we should have played hardball with green and demanded a sig earlier... in retrospect, sure, but don't you kinda have to trust the people who have been dealing with high school kids for years? This isn't a trend, it's an outlier.
Did you happen to see the jump Fab Melo made in one year. Please with the "Hopkins can't coach big men" crap. Think before posting.I love when posters give a single example to justify a position...

After Bernie left, it has definitely gone in a downhill trend...
Edit: My favorite from the football side:
We can bring in a 5'10" qb and find success because - Doug Flutie :crazy:
Rak and Fab were MacDonald's AA! Were they overachievers or underachievers? Are you making the Kentucky first round draft argument? Take your own advice...Did you happen to see the jump Fab Melo made in one year. Please with the "Hopkins can't coach big men" crap. Think before posting.
Did they get better or not. Isn't that what a good coach does?Rak and Fab were MacDonald's AA! Were they overachievers or underachievers? Are you making the Kentucky first round draft argument? Take your own advice...
Things are that black and white for you in life? Question is quality of improvement in time to be of quality use for this program. Do bigs improve? Do bigs improve in time to actually help this program?Did they get better or not. Isn't that what a good coach does?
Maybe I'm wrong .
Our players typically look better to other schools fans than they do to us.Anyone hear the saying " how do you make $750,000 in the stock market?" Start out with a $1million... How do you make a 1 year serviceable ACC center? Start out with a MickieDs AA...

No, still waiting for you to buy a vowel...Still waiting for DC to play the 4...

Anyone think that?

Hint: Some posts are simply made to promote conversation...Class of 2016 - SG/SF Andrew White (VA; Grad Transfer from Nebraska)
You had Battle, White, Lydon, Coleman, and Chukwu as our "money lineup". Now you want to criticize our coaches. Take it down a notch.

That said: DC2 is still our best/only back to the basket scorer; so Lydon being a better defender in the center of the zone, we could put DC2 at the 4 with Tyler, would keep post scorer on the court without giving up so much with DC2 in the pivot...
