Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 2205891, member: 1414"] You people are insufferable sometimes. It's all the league's fault! It's Ollie's fault, he sucks! It's these darned players who don't play right or have heart! It's the sanctions! The injuries! Cinci and SMU were good! But Cinci and SMU didn't recruit well! It's Herbst! It's Warde! It's Miller! No wait, Miller was the one good thing! Blah, blah....noise. It's all of the above. There is no one person to point the finger at so stop trying. There are dozens of people to point the finger at. More that that really, since our fans could do a better job of filling the arena and not being insufferable crybabies. Can we win in this league? Yes. Obviously. Is it harder to win in this league? Yes. Obviously. Can Ollie win games and go deep in the tournament? Yes. Obviously. Is it much harder to do that now? Yes. Obviously. Does he still have it in him? I honestly don't know. For those of you who missed the later Perno years and the early Jim Calhoun years: winning begets winning. You win, your name shows up on ESPN, kids are interested in coming, therefore, you recruit better and you win. Kevin Ollie needs to damn well figure out how to win games with 3 star kids (like CV) and a couple of 4 stars. When he does that, he'll recruit better. If he doesn't, he will have to be fired and we'll have to hire somebody who can win with lower 4 and 3 star kids. We probably have a little mileage left from our championships, but not much. We wasted a ton of it last year (and yes, injuries were a prime contributor). We cannot waste what's left of it this year. This team has to win in 2017-18, or the hole we will be in will get deeper.
