Again right now he should get Prosser and Blake minutes.......they give zero!

Id swap Barnes for Pross

Yes, I would say I have been. If I was not, please point it out. I was critical of Jim Les' coaching when it was not good, and certainly the media was. But now the media absolutely refuses to place any shred of blame on the coaching either for their game management, game preparations, or recruiting, and in fact praises them as if we had Coach K running things.

Well, I'll take your word for it. I'm not going to research too much, but I looked back at the Eastern Illinois postgame threads from 2010, and you are nowhere to be found after a game much more embarrassing than last night. But that's only one game, and the Bears are about to come on so I'm not going further.

I was critical of the way Sam played in that game, but he was clearly injured. Other players failed to step up. I did not think the coaching was the problem, it was turnovers and execution. However, there were many times I was critical of the coaching in previous years.

Go Bears!

It isn't in Geno's personality, so I think it would be fake if he did it. Some people believe these things can be effective, but I don't.

I agree OC,a rant is not in Geno's make up and I agree that doesn't solve our problems. Which are many. I'm still in Geno's corner but as the season progresses I'm really starting to question his recruiting. When you put his recruits with JP,NW,KB and Walt's refusal to play team ball, our short coming are pretty obvious.

It worries me as to how you can build a team when you run off a couple of your own recruits every season! Other than TP who is paying off?

I've been saying that the only player they have brought in is Pickett. If they keep Geno they better fire all the asst coaches and bring in a good recruiter.

This I agree with. If Geno went on a rant, everyone would think it was all in jest.
But there are ways a coach can impose discipline and get his points across. I believe that is what we saw with the vastly different staring lineup and player rotation, and I expect we'll see more of that.

TP.... Where would we be w/o TP?


OG.....JSWop....KDB.....XT I Still Like these 4.

Im worried about AF? hmmmm

Lets keep getting better.

Lets get some W's! I say the next 5 we win and I for one will feel much better.

Hard to build a team when you have to keep running off your mistakes but if you keep them your gonna get the same results. LOSSES. So I guess the only answer is better do a hell of a lot better job evaluating kids you can get. Look at what ISU red and Drake have done with all the new kids they've brought in. Somebody's doing something right and I don't think it's us.

[lefty]

I dunno .... I dont get to watch practice

I guess that's my point??¦.if he was he would play more??¦I think if he plays 12-14 minutes a game it's all we can expect...

In fact I agree with you. Just trying to lighten things up a little...

why do the fans who are trying to point out how badly we are barrelling down the wrong path and in the wrong direction...are the ones that get attacked...
what is it going to take before we see an honest appraisal of what's happening?

Some people enjoy "shooting the messenger". It goes on on plenty of the Boards...
