Yes this season was no smashing success, but to act as if what occurred was an utter failure, you are seriously mistaken.
Pitino came in as a very young coach, with much upside, and potential for downside of course. Right now we experiencing some growing pains, they are part of the process. The more we moan and grope about what a poor job Pitino is doing, the faster he is going to bolt if and when he does right the ship. Right now the basketball program needs some support, not people crying horror when there is a rough patch, especially this early in the process.
Even more so, if we win a few of those first tight games, this negativity on the board would be much different. We dont have the talent right now, patience, thats what true fans need.
