Relax guys. Let's not act like Yankee fans when they don't sign every free agent or don't trade for every superstar.

We had a whole bunch of uncertainty around this time last year. In fact, I seem to recall missing out on a big time PG target and we made it to the Elite 8.

Trust the staff.

I think that part of me still has Weber PTSD, even all these years later. Like Fox Mulder, I want to believe...but then I remember how bad that fall was.

I agree with the post that said we have a lot of production to replace and most of the big names are off the board. Hopefully some new names hit the portal soon.

I think it’s fair to say where it stands today, this is not a great team with the additions. I understand the concerns. The portal results last season worked out unbelievably well and staff deserves a ton of credit for that. The year before…looked great but was kind of a mixed bag. I do think BU has earned the trust but I also understand the concerns. Don’t think that’s unreasonable.

A little concern is one thing. The doomsday prepping is completely different. We have a head coach who has shown he understands how to build his roster his way to make the tournament. Just because some of us don’t like the way he builds a roster doesn’t mean we should be ready to jump off the Sears….err Willis Tower.

Look at their necks. Sencire's is much longer. They have some dawgs on that team.

Seems like 99% of posters are pretty reasonable. Ok…that may be a little high but definitely a huge majority. Constantly chiding a small % of unrealistic FANatics on a forum just gets old.
