I am guessing this has to do with Hakstol?

Chris Mussman's win percentage as the HC: .477 Brian Jones win percentage as the HC: .469

I too am very confident that he will be coaching here again next season. I do not agree that he should be but that is just the way it is going to be. We are too accepting of mediocrity here in basketball to fire a coach that doesn't have a completely disastrous season. My whole thing with Jones is, like I have said before, he just doesn't have what it takes as a coach to lead us to the top of the Big Sky.

Either way this has been a pathetic year for all the hype coming into it. If Jones can barely get us into the conference tourny with this team than what is he going to do with next years? It's not going to be pretty. If UND is serious about basketball Jones would be let go as soon as possible.

I agree Webb is not a good shooter and I always cringe when he starts to take a 3 but the thing is with Webb he seems to always hit a 3 and a clutch moment. Hooker has really improved his 3 pt shot by just gaining confidence throughout the season. Personally I like that smaller lineup with the 3 guards in. I believe they were all on the court during the MSU game when we made a run and started to come back.

I am just looking forward to seeing all the current freshman get a chance. I am most excited to see Sharp and Carr but will also be looking forward to seeing Norberg and Reyes. I am also interested to see the other WRs that show they can possibly step up.

Nash played really well in the first half but I thought it was curious how he didn't enter the game in the second until around the 15 minute mark.

Uh I misread and thought you said basketball. My apologies.

Man this team is so deep with talent. If we had almost any other coach in the Big Sky I think we would be challenging Weber for the 1 spot.

Do you have a link to his twitter or something. I can't seem to find him anywhere.

Any idea who?

New coach.

Are we ever going to beat Weber?

I agree it's going to be tough but I actually like what our lineup could look like next year or at least I don't think we are going to be in complete rebuild.

I clearly would not mind Jones getting the boot but I do not believe that it will happen this year unless we finish in the bottom half of the Big Sky and miss the tournament. Even then I don't really think Faison would jump on firing him although he should. I am just curious as to who the possible replacements for him would be? The only person I can even think of is Moody but that seems like a big jump from him. I would not want anyone on the current staff to be promoted either.

SPOT ON

You know let's just take Hooker out when he led us on a run and hit a big three. Seems logical right? Jones did a horrific job subbing today.

Bunp

We should probably pick up the kid with the blue socks in the little chippers game. Kids a stud.

Anyone have any info on if we offered Tyrone Taylor? On wiki it says we did but I can't find anything anywhere saying we have.

He did look good either his freshman or sophomore year I don't remember. Whichever year Hardin went down.

I did some quick updates on the Wiki page that I have seen. I am sure I missed some stuff but that's just what I know. I am really wondering when Ngor is going to commit somewhere. He just had a nice 21 pt and 15 rebound game the other night. We could sure use him!

So who all watched this game? I only watched the first ten minutes or so and Huff absolutely went off in that time but must have cooled down quite a bit. From looking at the box score it looks like we did a horrendous job of boxing out especially on Solarin because he out-rebounded us alone! I am pleased with the playing time that Stefan had in this game and it looks like he played quite well when he was in. Anyone know why we start Salmonson? He is in there for about two minutes and then Traylor comes in for him.

So what are we looking for in spring ball? Obviously the QB battle and I guess we can see Patrick Sharp a little more. Anything else?

Well I guess I am okay with going 2-2 on the four game road stretch. 3-1 was very doable but I figured 2-2 was more likely.
