Does anyone even care anymore?
« on: January 27, 2021, 08:38:15 PM »
I mean really.  Does anyone care?  8-8, a snowball's chance in hell at the tournament, lethargic and boring offense, inconsistent defense, and a coach that's more milquetoast than Caspar Milquestoast.  What is there to watch?  I'll always take pride in my alma mater, but absent that connection - I have no motivation to even watch.

nope...  , but now I think MU may lose players like Dawson and Lewis to transfer cause they don't want to play on such poor teams...

think about it, with no transfer penalty, why would they not want to go to a team that has a chance to win?   to a team that has not stunk up the court three years in a row sliding to a bottom feeder in the conference...

Wojo's ceiling most years is the BE Mediocrity trophy (.500 in conference) - these players see it and will want better...

There’s no bigger fan than me, but I’ve never been less interested in an MU game tied under 1 minute. I’ll never get to a point where I “hope” they lose for a change to be made, but it’s pretty bad now. I don’t really care they lost. Wouldn’t have made a difference as they are so buried anyway.

Sadly I convinced myself to turn it on and watch the overtime. Earlier tonight I attended an outdoor high school hockey game and that was far more enjoyable. My interest level is falling off the table rapidly.

Ditto and this is coming from a huge fanatic.  Wojo has slowly been sucking the life and fun out of living and dying with each game.  Now its ehhh, another loss, another ho hum season, another clunker of a finish and undoubtedly it will be the same next year.  But hey lets keep bringing him back.  We have become the Cubs.  Wait until next year.......

I care, but only because I'm bored, stuck at home, and have nothing better to do.

The no fans in the stands thing has also taken a toll on my enjoyment.

You weren’t interested in a how a tied game with under a minute left will turn out?? I don’t understand that.
If any college game is tied under a minute...I’m interested.

Wojo's ceiling most years is the BE Mediocrity trophy (.500 in conference) - these players see it and will want better...

So next year the 7-man rotation might be:
 - Greg
 - Symir
 - Jose
 - Dexter
 - Oso
 - Stevie
 - Jonas

One wonders how that would work.

The lack of fans definitely makes it less enjoyable.

2010 when he was with the Dukies, riding on Coach K's coattails.

Sure but it's just so inconsequential.  Interested to see how it all turns out as much as one can be, but caring what happens?  Why would you?

Yes. Great rink and set up. Winter Club did a great job with the rink.

I care, but I think its more habit and nostalgia.  Sure isn't enjoyment or entertainment at this point.
