Braves in trouble

Inexcusable. I've been a big JL fan, but I'm running out of patience. Every year the same thing . . . we need a meltdown to wake up in time to salvage a three-letter tourney bid. That won't do this year. If BU doesn't wake up and get to the Big Dance, I'll have to say the same thing I said about Mo: once in nine years is PATHETIC.

Agreed. Especially your last part!

Another classic home loss against a weaker opponent from a bad conference by a team coached by jim les. That's the season folks. If we can't beat western carolina... Boy am i po'd. Maybe it should have been les to leave instead of merfield. 8th season... One ncaa. One 4th place finish in the mvc (highest finish). Another bad home loss.

And there are people on this board who actually think that bu is a premier team in a premier conference. Well, i got news for you. You are dead wrong. We are a mid-major or lower in a conference that is falling just about as quick. Bad, bad, bad.

Oh, if we get into the cbi or college insider.com or some other bogus post season tourney we can get to 20 wins again. Oh boy. My stack is blown.

GTD..you couldn't be more wrong. Excitment is at an alltime high, the brand of basketball has the crowds going crazy, Carver was rockin tonite....3 twenty win seasons...3 straight post season tourneys......this program is headed to the top.....signing the best recruting class in the Valley....(should I stop now)
 
i'd rather see us end the regular season/ MVC tournement with 20 wins and making the NCAA tourney instead of using some new tournement each year to get to the 20 win mark.

On the other hand, i do agree that there is a lot of positives to look forward to with the current team and the excitement level around the program right now couldn't be any better!

No need to play in the looser tournys. We are either a winner or not!

Couldn't agree more....I supported the first two thinking they were going to help us grow as a porgram. I will not step foot in Carver for any more EIEIO tourney's.
 
It's one game guys.......not the end of the world. Let's see how it goes the next few games before we get all excited.

I said after the Illinois game that one game doesn't make a season win or lose.

And if what I heard tonite is true then it makes sense that SM is gone ....

Let's see how we do after finals

I plan on it...I'm going to watch the highlites. That will knock me out quickly.

Listen...I understand the relevance of BU basketball and sports in general. Once my real life starts tommorrow this will leave me but for now I'm in basketball mode and I'm going to vent how I see fit. Period.

Sure its ONE game Lefty but its ONE game thats typical of the last 8 years.....THATS what is so troublesome. We can't get beyond mediocre under JL. That FACT is undeniable.

BU basketball....

1 Tradition....

Celebrate mediocrity.
 
My night at the game was far from a total lost. I meet a great guy and poster here. This guy was fun to talk to and has a world of knowledge about BU and BU BB:!: As I talked to him at the half, I was amazed at the number of BU fans that he knew and the # that stopped to say hi to him. We had just one cold one but there will be another day, friend. Chico you have a safe trip out west and hit the ball straight for old OOB, will ya:lol: Take Care

Great to finally meet you OOB. Like I told you we have to stick together because we seem to get most of the slack from other posters for telling it like it is in our opinion. Good news is, I got a phone call tonight and I have a 9:30 tee time Monday at Greenfield Lakes in Gilbert. Now if only the snow will quit here and the rain will quit there. Hope the Braves can turn it around so everybody's season will be more enjoyable. I got the next one.

I guess that's why I like to look at the whole body of work and while it's been slightly above mediocre over the years I don't get to up or down after one game. We have a good win against Illinois and this loss at home.
Now if we finish middle of MVC and out early in the tourney then it's another mediocre year and I agree completely.
Just about every teaam has a game or two that they should have won and didn't hopefully we got it out of the way.
