The Boneyard is like the Twilight Zone, not a good barometer for rational thoughts. We posters move in out out frequently.That Ollie was able to improve from one of the worst coaches in DI to a better coach than Hall of Famer Jim Boeheim in less than one week?
Kudos to the man!

Didn't agree with his benching of Brimah in the first half at all. I understand that he was maybe trying to keep him out of foul trouble? But I mean, when your his short handed...you play your best men. Brimah- for all the he gets from me and everyone else- is a ****g rim protector man. The percentages must be staggeringly low when he's in the game for other teams. He may not grab boards, but he changes the whole outlook of going down low for the opposing teams. Cuse can't shoot worth a lick either, so for me, that was the ball game. The man (Ollie) coached a great game defensively. Switching to man at key points was smart.

IMO, there is not a wanna be coach in this forum who I feel could have done a better job coaching this team than KO with the outside exception of @mauconnfan. I'm not sure anyone has been more astute at breaking down this season. Good job mau. The rest of the posters really need to get some perspective.
Not baffling. Just sad. Same with the excuse of denigrating players and teams. Certainly there are posters who critique things and quite astutely. But the majority of the stuff posted is sour grapes or amateurish. It's good to be passionate. But out of control passion is dangerous.The notion that any message board poster could do a better job than KO is baffling.

Honestly that game last night was barely watchable. If it hadn't been UConn vs. Syracuse I would've turned the channel. At one point I didn't think either team was going to hit double digits. Yes we won (thank goodness) and yes it was against Syracuse (even better) but it certainly wasn't a game to brag about by any stretch. Let's see if this win gives them a little momentum.
Not sure we're disagreeing. UNLESS PEOPLE DO THIS THERE IS NO WAY TO KNOW WHO IS SHOUTING. So the majority of people make a statement and move on maybe with one or two elaborations or changing of the wording to express themselves more clearly. There is a minority who need to be heard and thus they repeat themselves ad nauseum believing the same argument expressed exactly the same way will convince someone to change their mind on the umpteenth attempt. They believe by repeating something over and over again they can wear someone down and make them capitulate.I disagree with this narrative. I think its more of the dumbest being the loudest.
