And somehow DD figures out this tailspin before we go down the drain without so much as a smell in the CUSA tourney.

Lord this is getting depressing.

Has spring practice started yet? Lol.
 
If Hammy will let me "cash in" my season tix, please let me know the procedure!

I want to go on record now and say I am confident that DD is the right coach. Like Andy said we are not a basketball powerhouse over the past 91 years. IMO we are feast or famine. We seem to win 20 games for a few years and then resort back to 10-15 wins.I really believe the plan that DD is bringing here will work well for us moving forward. I mean really what do we have to lose at this point? If we get into year 4 and we are still looking at a dumpster fire then and only then do we say DD we love you bro but it's time to move on. I mean some of you are worse than Lakers fans expecting a miracle championship run in year 1 ain't gonna happen.He could have kept some of the old players that were causing problems and maybe won a few more games this year or clean house and right the ship. Give it time and remember I told you better days were coming. If that doesn't happen I will man up and say I was wrong.
 
I agree that DD is a good fit for us.

Of course, most of the idiots on this board don't see it that way. Most of them expect him to snap his fingers and voila, the team is unbeaten and amazing.
Doesn't work that way at all...he's starting to change the mindset of the team itself first, and that means removing some players who don't buy in, implementing schemes that will benefit over time, coaching staff, etc.

Some idiots just want to blame Hamrick, again, for something when it doesn't go their way.

Marshall basketball does not have any tradition...at all...ever. Huck, laughable at best when compared to other programs, conference championships...and ZERO NCAA wins, the fieldhouse, a joke when compared to other venues...thank God it's gone.
Hal Greer is about the only real element of basketball to be proud of. At least he's nationally recognized as one of the best players of all time.

But that was ages ago, now we're moving in a different direction. Elements of the old days, which nobody can seem to just let go and move forward with, are with DD as coach, but he's also having to adjust to a modernized culture that basketball has taken. It's not nearly as corrupt or bad as football, but it has changed.


Resources come when the team improves. Team wins, people come to watch, Marshall makes money. Right now, we don't have anything to really watch. The team is not playing well right now, at all, but give it time...DD will get us moving in a better direction.
 
Ohio herd - I too am positive that DD is Antonio.

However it is just a gut feeling and a hope

Nothing in DD's resume is trending toward success at the college level. Especially at the level of Marshall University is and how it is critical that we find the diamonds in the rough a it relates to recruiting.

And these losses just perpetuate that kind of second guessing

My fingers are crossed.
 
This listing ship will right itself toward the end of next year. Took on too much water under Herrion. The boys and coaches are bailing hard. They are getting closer and we continuously need to encourage them.
