I'm not going to respond to every super-frustrated fan with an over-developed sense of what they are entitled to as a SU fan.

The idea seems to be that SU can select whoever they want and that when they get to SU they perform as advertised or desired. Unfortunately there are limits to how many we can get and each player we do get is a crap shoot. And there are 100+ other programs out there all vying for the same group of prospects.

This idea of ultimate responsibility is a relic of the Military, where you are held responsible for results regardless.

I get it. One of the functions of this board is to allow the venting by the disappointed. It's a great place to throw verbal rocks at the head coach, the assistant coaches, the players, the fans, the facilities and the University. Oh yes, its also for showing off one's basketball strategy acumen and doing a little Monday morning quarterbacking on decisions.

All of which makes some people feel better, I guess.

I have observed they don't much like to be challenged on any of their opinions. Not only do they feel they have the right to complain, but also the right not to be challenged.
