Its amazing how some people expect everyone else to maintain the same level of fandom as they do , otherwise they "suck" or "arent true fans".
The beauty of sports is that it is just that, for sport. You can go all in to support a team or you can be casual about it. What gives someone the right to determine what makes a fanbase "good fans" or not. Its not like fans sign a contract. Also, noone should feel like they deserve a pat on the back for being a "good fan". Noone really cares that much.
That being said, hope MU has a good finish to the season. Its nice when the team you cheer for wins.

There's a difference between what you're describing and an obnoxious dbag in front of the families of players.

I think the Theo Greg Jamal Ike class was supposed to be role player followed by the go to guys Joey and Brendan (once Sam and Markus has graduated). My theory was staggering the classes like this was wojos plan to stop the consistent transfers. If so it was a good idea till it didn't work.

Good observations.

Lenny

GE will be at best a 3rd or 4th option. Seems like a great kid, but not sure a tremendous upside moving forward. We need the new guys to be real deals next year or might be a long season.

Goose

My sentiments exactly.

I agree Goose. As for Greg - he’s a good role player. Good defender. Can hit an open three. But there is very little he can bring off the bounce...largely because he’s just SO thin and can’t play through any kind of contact.

I do think Koby could take a nice step forward next year. He’s just a mess right now. Bailey and Cain are wildcards. Jamal could take a step simply through adding more strength going from a 20 year old to 21 year old. But we are going to need major offensive contribution from Dawson and other freshman.

Elon

Hope you’re right about Koby - love his toughness but I fear he’ll always be inconsistent on the offensive end.

Two people!

And 20 booing students. 

18,000 people packed the place and we have ppl saying our fans suck. 

If Wojo is good bc he’s in top 30 of NCAAs what does that make the fans who are top 15?

Fine. 17,538. A smattering of boos (basically idiots) and all of a sudden the "fanbase sucks". The logic makes no sense.
