JB on With Dan Patrick at 11:25 Eastern.

Making the program his personal family outing for a season is what did it for me.

Buddy was a legitimate high D1 talent. Should he have played 35 minutes a game? Probably not, but he wasn’t some role player out of his league.

Jimmy shouldn’t have played nearly as much as he did. That’s true.

We all agree the recruiting wasn’t what it should have been.

My problem with JB is he says stuff that 100% isn't true and people who don't know any better believe him verbatim. It's very similar to our modern political environment.

Is this true, though? Fans are aware of his propensity to be hyperbolic.

His recent NIL comments would be an example. There’s absolute truth in our NIL lagging. Being bottom 3 in the ACC is where the hyperbole kicks in. It’s unlikely there’s anybody taking ‘bottom 3’ as gospel because Jim said it.

It isn’t close to bottom 3. We paid the wrong players in the backcourt. Period. There’s teams in the Big 12 that were ranked this year that had significantly less money than us.

It isn’t in the upper half (edit: Third. We were somewhere near the middle from what I’ve gathered) of the ACC either, though, based on the number quoted here and the numbers I’ve seen on national boards from other ACC fanbases.

And guess what? Even if it wasn’t the recruiting services had us with a top 20
class coming in and top 5 in the ACC. Everything else is an excuse to me! NONE of this was a problem last summer! Now it’s JB excuse season and he has had a lot of them the past decade.

I’m referring specifically to the accuracy of his comments that NIL isn’t where it needs to be. There were naturally multiple factors contributing to the poor performances on court. The ones JB called out were Autry’s coaching, the top 2 players, and NIL.

To the point about him saying untrue things that people take as truth, I think anybody would apply what their eyes saw to any comments he makes. People saw Autry’s coaching. People saw the performances of our players.

Btw, I took his bemoaning of our NIL as a coordinated effort to poke donors to give more. I think, “Hey, the donors did great and we didn’t deliver” would have been a disastrous comment.

Could be. I don’t know. He lost all benefit of doubt with me when we were playing Jimmy at center to end close games.
 
 
I think it’s probably because of his earlier comments saying we were bottom 3 in NIl, autry is a good coach and Donnie and JJ sucking cost him his job. Lack of filter makes it interesting!
No I think it's because he killed a guy speeding on 690 East. This is for all the Brian Kelly killed a kid fans out there.
