Yes, you managed to make MU fans feel worse.  :(

Quote from: The Equalizer on Today at 10:33:37 AMFailure to recruit the portal is not his "error"--his error lies in his entire operating philosophy . . .

- not using the portal
- prioritizing your current roster over always looking to improve your team
- not dealing with agents
- ignoring potential recruits if they desire to maximize earnings
- believing that low-major recruits reliably can be "coached up" to Big East level
- prioritizing culture and relationships over performance
- prioritizing retention over improvement
- prioritizing practice over games

Let's face it, with 2500+ players in the portal every year, there are plenty of underdeveloped, unproven transfers that are functionally identical to the underdeveloped, unproven HS players he's been recruiting. 

If the only thing Shaka changes is taking those players from the portal instead of HS, results won't be any better. 

The answer is not simply "recruit the portal."  It's recruit (and land) Big East ready talent wherever he can find it.

Why did you remove the part where I said "were all very well aware"

We already know this. Thanks.

The Big East is having some intense games across the board today. Richard Pitino was up by 16 on his dad but St. John's is now in the lead.

Saw more defense from those teams in the second half than MU has shown all season.

And the freshman are worse than anyone would care to admit

Quote from: GB Warrior on Today at 01:01:16 PMShe sees nothing wrong with this; she did this with her dog just last week
In her defense maybe all the stuff she's put into her face finally made it up to her brain.

Quote from: Stretchdeltsig on Today at 08:44:00 AMOur defense is simply awful. We are an easy mark for any team to beat us. So is our lack of rebounding. No follow up by shooters or interested standers. Perhaps our poor free throw shooting should be at the top of the list costing us to lose too many games.  All in all this is a lousy team. Is it the talent or the poor coaching?

Two seniors that are role-players. No Juniors to speak of. Lack of talent at the top, inexperience at the bottom.

Time to dust off the resume, Kim

That's brutal. Hard to imagine he's still around next year.
