That certainly was not me. I was down on the Red hire from the moment he failed to get a real center. I would’ve preached patience with someone from the outside, not internally.

As for this year so far? It has most certainly been bad. You haven’t been competitive in games with talent, and you’ve been pushed to the brink by two teams in Colgate (who lost their two best players from last years team) and Cornell who, thank goodness, missed 5 wide open threes yesterday in the first half alone. The LSU game may go down as the biggest fluke of the season, we shall see.

I’m just not sure how anyone can look at this team and be okay with the lack of coaching prowess red has shown. He’s not coaching at St Peter’s, he’s at freaking Syracuse University. He has shown he doesn’t know how to build good lineups, he cannot seem find the balls to sit his underperforming protege, and he continues to fail to install any coherent offensive scheme outside of “hope Judah and bell bail us out.” But yes, he’s coaching man to man so I guess that earns him the 2 million+

Sorry, he doesn’t get a couple years, he wanted the job he got it, now he has outsized expectations to perform. A .500 season this year is not good enough, he doesn’t have 45 years of success to lean on to win the hearts of the populous.
