Once, During An 8 Day Stretch

I feel confident that the majority of the fan base has figured out DD. A HS coach with a gimmick game plan, that had a eight day hot streak.

Do you realize how ridiculous we look? We won ONE GAME in the NCAAs. So have 100s of other teams. Most of the schools we would consider “rivals’ or “peers” have many times that single number.

We simply are not good. Not good in an AWFUL basketball conference. Unprepared. Out maned. These players simply do not belong at this level.

It is time for DD to go.

BTW, notice the Doc hate late in this thread. Not only is this a basketball thread, but Doc isn’t even employed here anymore. But we all know that a lot of DD syncophants are Doc haters, and just use DD worship as another form of Doc hate.

It is time for DD to go. Fire everybody in the building and run off everyone you can

I remember where this program was before DD got here. It was on life support. The media "experts" shook their heads and laughed over DD's hire. A few years later, we were in the NCAA tourney for the first time in decades and recorded the first tournament win in MU history. Not too bad for a "High School coach".

I'm not a D'Antoni relative or sycophant - never met any of them. But, I know before and after....the program was better after he got here.

This team is struggling....but I don't believe it's in anyone's interest to give up on these young men; that's just not justified nor logical. I can't explain this terrible losing streak. Hopefully, we'll see improvement and wins. Kinsey's game certainly has picked up greatly the last few games. I'm not seeing this thing as over yet.

Weird...when Huff lost against ECU, people gave up on him and the entire team/season...he even hinted at such (which means it got so bad HE actually decided to waste his time bringing it up) in pressers. People complained at his inability to close out games.

Vs.

A guy who hasn't improved the team overall, they played a horrendously easy schedule (with little to no mention of schedules...when compared to someone else), his blundering of timeouts costing MU games, forcing a style of play that clearly isn't working for what we have, and inexcusable losses but somehow..."Oh, lets not give up on him...it's not fair!!!"

Bullsh*t, DD should absolutely be hit with as much criticism as possible.
 
while I agree it is mind boggling that we are such a poor shooting team I still think this team has an upside. I think DD deserves at least one more year to rebound. I guess I just see things differently than many of you. i really feel that we are one player away from being a really good team in the future.
This is great!!!
Sad thing is, he probably already has said player but he can't develop them, at all.
Hell, we have an NBA level talent on that team. At the level/schedule MU plays, MU should be doing better asleep.
 
Good news, someone's going to have their first conference win after our game with FIU!!!
Hell yes! Such amazing suspense and build up DD has given MU fans making this season worth it so far!!!

Well, the story line should be, if you lose this game then don't let the door hit you in the AS*, because it needs to. DD losing this game means you are getting the Worse Coach of the Year award. And to think I really support this coach and now am so disappointed.
 
Do you really believe what DD says that we shoot great in practice? Watched a lot of this years games and it’s hard to believe that to be the case.
 
Sad. I stopped watching. It’s so predictable and painful to watch. We are going to start slow, shoot sub 20% from 3, and still shoot 30 of them a game. Throw in some defensive lapses and you have a 7 game losing streak.
I just canceled ESPN+, lost interest.
 
lost interest.
THAT is the main issue. People have figured out that DD is just some slogan spewing guy, and the players really don’t care and are basically playing pick up street ball.

It is very easy to just lose interest. Even on this board, there isn’t even a game thread most games. We all know what the result will be, and that DD will come out with some folksy BS afterwards.

Its over. Its time to get serious about basketball when we move to the SBC
