True.  But what is going to do after the season?  Because running it back with our incoming class seems like basically a crap shoot. 

I got to believe no point beating a lame horse.

Quote from: GoldenEagles03 on Today at 12:28:51 AMHe's not willing to change. He has basically already told us that. So he will just have to hope he starts hitting on better talent on the recruiting trail.

Nigel, Stevens, and Egbuonu seem to be that. Hopefully Pearson proves to be as well.

When did he say he isn't willing to change?

Quote from: Small Orange Soda on Today at 12:18:50 AMI don't disagree that we shouldn't solely be looking to a post game presser for answers, but I think somewhere, in some way, Shaka needs to acknowledge that his way of doing things is the cause of this and he's willing to change.

He's not going to do that in that setting. He's not going to publicly do that at all.

Yipers.  Here we are at game 10. 
22 more games to go.

The growth (or lack of) from our returning players is where Shaka whiffed.  Tyko, Oso, Stevie, O-Max, and Kam all got better.  And Mitchell was a game changer defensively. If you look at our returning guys, none of them have really improved.  Including Chase.  His usage is way higher so his numbers look stronger, but he's essentially the same player from the last few seasons.  In his defense he's getting no help whatsoever, but the fact that he and none of our guards can really make consistent plays off the dribble vs a set defense is astounding to me.  And the shooting is even more perplexing.  We may very well be the worst shooting team in the country.  This live by the 3, die by the 3 philosophy, isn't a recipe for ultimate success imo.  Shaka has been bit by it with much better teams.

No press conference is worth listening to til the offseason. The roster isn't changing and actions speak louder than words. He's already inserted Stevens into the lineup. I'm sure there will be other rotation changes. But until the offseason, it's all deck chairs on the Titanic

Quote from: KingKolek on December 06, 2025, 11:05:48 PMI've been here for a short time, but it's become pretty clear whose opinion I can largely disregard here. If they don't think it's worth discussing, just ignore the input.

Getting used to this board is fairly easy once you realize that any thought or opinion you share is far more likely to be met with antagonism than constructive dialogue.

There's a guy on here named Tower who you could usually count on for the latter, but it seems he's on vacation this season. Lucky him.

Lotta contrarians here jumping on the "let it go" pogo stick when it suits them. Finally it's disgusting.

 We can't be letting go just how disgraceful it is what arsenal just did.
