It’s insane. This story is frustrating, Hurley can’t do stuff like this. But we’re 15-5, 6-3 in one of the best conferences in the Country, and still in contention for the big East title. We overreact after every loss.
No it’s not good for Dan Hurley or our program for him to be inviting fans of the team to fight him. It’s going to end badly
I would have told them to zip it too, but I'm a fake internet message board tough guy and not a D1 basketball coach getting paid $2.9M. Hurley has to be the bigger person and let the bozos be bozos
The 6-3 record is meaningless when you look at who we beat.
I think we go 3-4 over the next 7. This teams good but I think expectations are just too high
That would be terrible. We should do better than 3-4 if we’re a good team. We need to win 2 out of the nova/xavier/marquette games
Yea I don’t know why there is even a debate on this. Imagine Jay Wright inviting a fan onto the court for a confrontation.
If you are settling for 2-3 in those games how is 3-4 terrible?
We'll see what happens. I hope we go 7-0. I think some of you are just too bought into the hype.
It’s actually by definition not meaningless. We beat who we were supposed to. Marquette at Marquette is one of the better road wins in conference play this year. This board just has amnesia
Yeah we're just gonna have to disagree here. I think expectations are too high from some here, but this team has looked like a backend top 25 team all season, 3-4 would be incredibly disappointing for this upcoming stretch
Not at all. I just think going 3-4 must been you expect us to get swept by nova/Marquette/Xavier. And I don’t know what you’ve seen from those teams to expect that. We’ve already beaten Marquette at Marquette. And Xavier has MULTIPLE w t f losses. We’re flawed, but so is every other team in this conference. Including Nova
Until we prove that we can string a couple of wins together against the top half of the conference I think there is fair reason for some concern. Especially when literally every close game over the past couple of seasons has ended the same way.
Looking at how we've played all season and not just overreacting to the last 2 games
I mean sure we have looked ok at times vs teams we are significantly better than, but every team that is comparable talent wise we have struggled against. There was reason to be optimistic when some of the losses were without key players, but now that we are healthy and still seeing the same exact issues closing against the better teams you would be ignorant not to be somewhat concerned.
Yeah it's really concerning. This team doesn't play it cool. They get the yips in crunch time. All that stems from the coach. It's been a constant since he's been here.
This. It starts at the top. When you unravel when the pressure starts to mount, your players are going to feed off of you and your body language. Blaming the XL center is absurd. Creighton didn’t have their center the entire second half - this one is on focus, coaching and attention to detail. We were 10+ point favorites!
We should win those next at least 3 of those next 4. Making us 5-2 in that stretch. Simple math
