It hasn’t worked at MSU

Not sure I agree. Mississippi State was way lower than we were when he took over and has show steady, consistent improvement.  And the teams play tough as nails.

Did you have to follow up with the same insult?

I expected so much more from someone with a Churchill-like grasp of the English language.

Pretty embarrassing that someone posted this after a single half of basketball in the first actual game of the season. 
What a sad person.
Great comeback by these kids. Played with a lot of heart tonight.

Embarrassing

The only thing that is embarrassing is that you are the only person who stooped to crass insults in an otherwise civil thread.

If you cannot have a disagreement without resorting to childish profanity perhaps you should run for political office and leave commenting on Scoop to others.

It was a great comeback, I totally agree.

I posted after one half because I see the exact same deficiencies that have existed for YEARS.  That is very frustrating.

SOSDD.  Sorry to say.

And I know it's the first half but it's the same deficiencies we've endured for years now.

This post makes you Turd of the Week.

Congrats.

The smart play at this point is to come back tomorrow morning and claim you were hacked.

Everyone, I hope I am totally wrong.

I lived through Bob Dukiet who damn near killed MU hoops, so I enjoy every win we get.  And I think those that share my experience would agree with my sentiment.

But what I saw tonight, I have seen before and that scares me in year 5 under Wojo. He should be better than this at this point.

Well, the outcome was decided in the second half. How about praise coach for making great adjustments and firing up his squad. That was a hell of an impressive comeback and win. Really jumped the gun on this topic.

Hope I'm wrong. Let's revisit in late February/early March.

Step 1: Knee jerk reaction

Step 2: Validate knee jerk reaction

Step 3: Realize knee jerk reaction was stupid

Step 4: Commit to not accepting responsibility for knee jerk reaction

Step 5: Back track and rationalize disappointment with processes.

Step 6: Get on high horse and ridicule those willing to attack you for stupid knee jerk reaction.

Step 7: Dig in.

Step 7.5: EDIT: Pretend to be high and mighty with statements such as “I hope I’m wrong” also known as “I’m going to tell you so if I’m right later.”

Step 8: Stab someone over a Popeye’s Chicken Sandwich

What you saw tonight was a gritty team effort that resulted in a huge comeback victory against a quality opponent.
And Wojo outcoaching the reigning NABC and Big 10 coach of the year.
The fact that you're continuing to whine makes you look so much dumber than your initial post, which at least can be somewhat excused by some heat-of-the-moment frustration.

A second amazing thread...
"I hate everything about this job except the games, Everything. I don't even get affected anymore by the winning, by the ratings, those things. The trouble is, it will sound like an excuse because we've never won the national championship, but winning just isn't all that important to me.” Al McGuire

You saw a first half team that was rusty and then a second half team shutdown their opponent. The team fought. Played great defense. Law of averages evened out in shooting. You say he hasn’t been able to make adjustments but what would you call the second half on defense. They easily could have folded down 18 but Wojo kept them focused and delivered. Stop trying to prove you are right about Wojo because tonight he was not what you are saying.

Some great half time adjustments by the coach.  More so, he told Kolby to keep shooting.

I'm going to be honest here....


Great win for Mu.

But horrible game plan from wojo. A basic 4-1 with no switches or changes was the offensive mu ran. Great on kobe and Howard for working on it and making it happen. But seriously awful on zero changes besides howard and McEwen themselves.
