Last year's NIT run, FSU, USC, ILL....road games where we came out focused, had energy and executed. Even at Indiana I thought we played well, just fell victim to their ridiculous first half.

Every recent road game we come out looking like North Korean soldiers performing an elaborate military drill for the dictator's birthday. Seriously, we look like we think that any mistake will result in the firing squad, and we inevitably find ourselves down big quick.

This isn't the team I watched in November and December. WHY?
 

Where's that coolhand thread - the one that goes, "You know you're in trouble when..." Well, you know you're in trouble when people make analogies about you that involve the North Korean armed services.
 

What happened? The mental makeup of this team is as soft as rain soaked toilet paper and the players hate playing for Tubby. Big Hint that's true: Players only meeting. He's not with them he's above them. Pretty much the opposite of say an Izzo run team. So far past his prime and unwilling to change his ways or his pathetic staff sans one guy. He should almost be forced to coach next year's train wreck a comin' down the tracks. Have no fear, if there is a qualified candidate willing to take this job after the season chances are Tubby will be put out to pasture. Look, he's a good guy but an awful coach at this point in his career. Best of luck to him but it's time to GTFO.

They all wear big hats.

True, the one good thing about not firing the bum is that he would be forced to coach next year where everyone would see full well that he is a fraud.
 

Keep in mind, if we stink next year, any good players may get so fed up that they transfer away. It's not like that hasn't happened before making the shelves more bare.

Well, would you rather go into '14-'15 with Tubby and Elliott, or with neither? If that's the choice.
