Message: [QUOTE="HuskiesAllDay, post: 2001883, member: 3494"] I wasn't saying this tarnishes JC in any way. Of course it doesn't. I was responding to his repeated claims that posters are unrealistic when we expect better than the crap that we've seen this year (and often times the last few). Some posters go overboard no doubt. The calls for KO to be fired are dumb (I don't agree with that). But at some point people need to start holding the coaches accountable for this mess. SMU has a 2nd year coach. They don't get the same level of recruits as us. They have a 7 man rotation. And they have the same number of seniors as us. And they're 16-2. This board has become insufferable lately. Posters repeatedly make fair critiques of KO and the state of the program only to get attacked and called fair weather fans etc. Its pathetic. And EVERY SINGLE TIME he (Stairmaster, and a small number of posters) berate said posters and say they have unrealistic expectations and are basically being idiots to expect better than this. I just went over the fact that we've finished 6th, 6th, and are now 7th in the AAC. Are you ok with that? Do you think that is a fair level of expectation for KO and staff? How are we ever going to return to prominence if we are so accepting of failure? You don't have call it a disgrace. Pick a different word. It doesn't change anything. I can not understand how longtime posters (not saying you specifically) can be so accepting of these repeated lazy, sloppy, disinterested, and downright horrendous performances. The SMU game isn't an outlier. It was under JC. That type of performance has been common the last 4 years, including 2014. It's sad. [/QUOTE]
