Message: [QUOTE="Towney007, post: 2504760, member: 5832"] Here's my point. The foray into football was shortsighted. Like a lot of these things do, there's a quick windfall, a stalling out and then usually a pancake. We're in the pancake phase officially. Football decision drove the conference realignment process for us. It comes down to them not wanting us for a wide range of reasons. They still don't want us. All the decisions are being made because football and money. That's the bottom line. The hoops end of it is on Ollie and the program. He's been terrible. Recruiting has been fine, he just hasn't done anything with it. Everyone else in the conference has gotten better. We gambled on football though, hoping hoops could sustain itself. Yes, it's tougher to recruit in this conference, but there's no excuse we should be this bad, but here we are. To me - we're out of time on the decision. The football program sucks, but Ollie's poor overall performance has taken the timer and has sped it up. They're at where they're at now. [/QUOTE]
