Thanks Writer for sharing. You make some fair points and I do understand where you are coming from. I agree there is some middle ground where you need to enjoy a win even if you don’t like the coach. I am in the camp that wants Pitino gone next year for anything less than a final four run yet I...

Fair enough, I applaud your patience and positivity. I am trying to enjoy the season but I find myself more frustrated than I am happy with it despite us having a good shot at the tourney. For me the ship has sailed with RP. Another question, you mentioned making a judgment at the end of the...

So you thought Pitino made adequate half time adjustments? I am truly curious. He is the worst in-game coach I have seen in my time watching gopher hoops. Maybe I’m missing something?

Switched to volleyball. Why not enjoy the best product the University produces?

I agree. That’s what is so bizarre. The team is capable of beating anyone and making the tournament and somehow this is the most depressed I have ever been with gopher basketball. I just have no confidence in this operation. Half of the games are not even competitive.

I have to agree and we are just being brutally honest. I would wager my house on this game that we lose.

Did he just say Richard is one of the top young coaches in the country? Haha

While I generally agree, I like Pat overall. He has done some really interesting stuff about baseball over the years. I like town ball baseball as well and he covers it from time to time. Also, if you read my take, I completely disagree with Pat on this one. Doesn’t mean I can’t like him overall.

Yes, I do disagree entirely. Does that mean I can’t like someone because I disagree with their take?

Gopherhole has a lot of hate for Pat, I actually like Reusse. His point is that gopher basketball has reached the ultimate peak of mediocrity and perennial underperformance. It is him saying right now the situation is so hopeless, it’s not even worth taking a shot at Pitino. This is the most...

What a terrible shot. That’s bad basketball. Lucky it went and obviously I want to win but that’s just bad basketball.

Built I have to say I agree that the reach and expansiveness of our fanbase doesn’t compare to the big boys but our in arena atmosphere is as good as it gets “when we are competitive”. I have been to over 50 college arenas including all big ten arenas. The only atmospheres I would say are hands...

I need elite 8 or final 4. At this point I need a miracle run to stay interested. Anything short of that, if he is still here, and I’m dropping my season tickets. We have the sample size and it’s clear he can’t get the job done and SUSTAIN some kind of success. The big ten record is not even...

At this point, I’m just sad. I’m losing energy to even complain or whine anymore. I’m just depressed about it.

I’m a die hard gopher basketball fan. For me it is must watch tv and I have to say if Pitino somehow hangs on for another year, I will drop my season tickets and not watch a single minute. I’m depressed and fed up with this program.

Pitino is completely clueless. Anyone else notice how he’s active and very engaged on the sidelines the first 10 minutes of the game and then the final 5 minutes he hides on the bench? It’s pathetic. He has no idea what he’s doing.

How can a coach stand by and watch those final possessions of Carr dribbling, stumbling all over the place and not urge him to pass the ball. That was it for me. I’ve had enough. Carr is extraordinarily selfish.

I’m curious built. Do you personally know John? Also, I’m interested what would be luring about the Penn State college culture? If you ask me, their culture is not very good.

Point taken. Was trying to compare Carr with someone who we are all familiar with who checks all the boxes at his position to show how far way he is from being an NBA player. I don’t like the praise that some give Carr. I’m just happy we are past the Carr in the NBA thing. It’s very silly.

For sure. I just personally really don’t like Carr and I get carried away. Big shot maker or not, something about him bothers me. He has such a selfish “all about me” vibe to him. I know I’m in the minority and I obviously want the Gophs to do well, I’m just not infatuated with him like some.
