The question at this point feels more like do we have to bankroll to fund a competent football roster. I really hope so because I think this staff and our players work hard and deserve some success. We hate losing as fans but they live this every day.

That’s where I’m at. Everyone knows he can coach. If we are lacking the $$NIL resources and some who has the money to buy the players, (yes that’s what I meant to say), offers him a HC gig at the right school it would be hard to say no imo.

There was mention he wanted gtd playing time. No way he got that from MSU, so $$ seems more likely to me.

Or who we might lose mid year? But your point stands and I agree.

This is playing out exactly as I feared, but I never thought Misery would be one of the chosen. Maybe we figure a way to be mostly competitive, but it feels like the gap between the haves and have nots is getting wider.

I went to a game in Detroit a couple years ago. Nice stadium and we enjoyed it although I had no interest in the teams playing. But when we left, man it got sketchy in a hurry. We understood why so many left early.

I agree. We’ve been so close to a break out and missed its gut wrenching. I still believe BB is our last best hope at ever breaking thru.

Gotta give props to Whitman. This could never happen without his willingness to put up the money.

That’s about all that makes sense with the opportunities given him. Showed enough for the $$ to come calling.

Congrats to the ladies and I couldn’t be more proud of the way they turned this season around. Special props to KB. She’s not the most talented on the team, but she’s my favorite player. I wish the season wasn’t over, we are playing so well lately!!

Chester Frazier was about as bad it gets and he was able to develop a decent shot. I see no reason Ty isn’t capable of something similar.

One of the most physical games I can remember at this level of the tourney. They pushed our guards out so far we could never get in any rhythm and driving the middle was a disaster. Hard to complain because I think the better team won, but wish a few things had gone our way and we could have...

I saw the brackets and thought, well at least we won’t be complaining about the seedlings this year. I don’t know what i was thinking. Lol.

If we aren’t going to be a great defensive team, we just can’t have an off night shooting against a good team. I think it’s that simple. When QG is on his game, I don’t think anyone can beat us. He has got to start playing up to his potential for us to go far. We are good without him, but with...
