Quote from: Pakuni on Today at 01:15:17 PMHow do you define sh#tshow? That's a subjective term that means different things to different people, including the decision makers.

Quote from: Pakuni on Today at 01:15:17 PMAnd what's the point of having data points if each season is it's own, unique data point?

Quote from: Pakuni on Today at 01:15:17 PMI think we know from program history that no coach will survive back-to-back losing seasons. So we can start there with the minimum Shaka needs to do to avoid firing. If we're on the wrong side of .500 this time next year, Shaka's seat is more likely to be empty than hot.

Quote from: Pakuni on Today at 01:15:17 PMFrom there, I'd say it depends. Making the tournament should be the expectation, but whether failure to do so gets him fired depends on injury luck, how the schedule shakes out, etc. If MU wins 17 games but  doesn't make the tournament because Nigel and Royce each missed a few weeks, that's a mitigating factor in Shaka's favor. If we're playing in the Crown next year with a 17-16 record despite a healthy roster and the promised portal additions, it may be the end of the road. If we win 19-20 games but end up just on the wrong side of the bubble, he's likely safe.

Quote from: Pakuni on Today at 01:15:17 PMI've read a whole lot here in recent weeks about how this team has three young studs to build around, at least one high-end freshman coming in, three promising redshirts joining the active roster, and Shaka ready and willing to add key pieces through the portal.
How are we thinking/accepting anything other than "Tournament or bust"?

Quote from: brewcity77 on Today at 02:07:17 PMMissing the tournament, given this season, would qualify. Regardless, if he can have another season that would warrant dismissal, then he's coaching for his job, thus he's on the hot seat.

Quote from: GoldenEagles03 on Today at 06:36:44 PMJaden Bradley to the locker room with a wrist injury for Arizona.

Oh. My. Goodness.

So many stars injured. This is actually getting crazy.

Quote from: muwarrior69 on Today at 06:10:41 PMSo when they sign their LOI with the school, the amount "distributed" in not in that LOI and in subsequent years when scholarships are renewed, or is that a "separate" contract? I cannot imagine what revenue share a player will get is not in writing. So I doubt players will not receive no payments.
