Does anyone know when the next Merrimentics Anonymous meeting is? I feel I should go.

Maybe the students can change the chant to- Who's he, Fire Kelley!

FCS is what it is. College hockey is what it is. Can't we all just get along?

Thunder's a nice name, but not gonna happen with the Thundering Turds to the south. they play Thunderstruck all the time down there for introductions, etc. Just another part of the problem trying to come up with a "new" name when we are 100 years late to the deciding-what-our-nickname-should-be-party.... all the good names are taken.

This is exactly what a lot of the "let's just move on" people fail to grasp. Out of everyone that says ok fine let's pick a new name.... how many of those people are under the delusion that the name picked is going to be one they actually like? Step 1: Come out with a list of names to choose from. Result-- a bunch of people say hey wait a minute- I don't like any of these choices- let's just stay with no name. Meanwhile another group of people are still ok with the process because their name is still on the list. Step 2: New name is chosen, and a small percentage is happy because their choice for a name is the one picked. But now a large majority are ticked because none of their favored names were chosen- and they now feel like it would be better to stay with no name....but sorry, too late. Choosing a new name is an exercise in self-inflicted torture where the end result is a vast majority are not going to be happy.

Typical answer from an FU buffoon.

So.... Thanks to FU's complete ineptitude, both universities get punished if this goes thru.

Every other team in D1: We got more! We got more! We got more!

We may not win many games, or have any pride, or play hard, but at least we've got a great coach.....

JUST END IT

Well at least everyone had fun. I know I did.

this teams' idea of picking up the intensity on defense is to apparently over pursue on balls you can't get to, so you get yourself so out of position we give up wide open layups.

To paraphrase Clark Griswold from Christmas Vacation...... "Worse?! How could it get any worse?! Take a look around! We're at the threshold of Hell!"

That's better than the team has done collectively 19 times this season.

I don't think you're the one that's confused.... How about we have Hooker be Player/Coach next year? De Reuen seems to pick the worst possible moments to throw up a wild three or a wild 1 on 3 drive to the basket and kill the momentum.

More than Georges get in trouble or is he the only one??

How could anyone that doesn't even know what street ball refers to, make any sort of educated opinion on a guy's coaching ability

Defensively, they could have been WAY better. You're correct- they have rarely pulled off an upset. This year- a lot of close games, usually end up on the losing end. Why? Other teams value possession, time management, and play situational basketball. UND? From what I've seen, the last 2 minutes are mostly just business as usual regardless of score, with Foghorn Leghorn running around barefoot flapping his wings yelling I say, I say I think there should've been a foul called there.

It was nice to see a summary of the recruits over the years.... however..... regardless of who stayed, who played, and how well they played.... my contention is Jones does not develop whoever the players are, to their full potential. 2011-2014 being the prime example. Wins are gotten purely on athleticism and shooting well. There is no discipline. The players are not put in a position to succeed. As has been said a million times by gfhockey- these teams just play street ball. How many coaches around the country could not have led last years' team to a .500 overall record? How many coaches could not have mustered a 10th place finish in the Big Sky this year? I guess I just don't understand the passion to hang on to mediocrity, especially 9 years into this experiment.

Is he going on a sabbatical that we don't know about yet?

#buttfrontalboudary!

This team hasn't run an offense for 9 years. Out shooting your opponent is the only way you even have a chance to win playing this way. There's no communication on defense, either. Sac state runs actual plays with good ball movement- they had open shots all night. I've said it before and agree with it being brought up again here earlier today-- there's little to no improvement over the course of a career here. We saw evidence of that over the previous 4 years.

That layup out of the timeout is something you learn to defend in 7th grade.

I was surprised they performed topless. Too bad you guys missed it.

I agree. A year of getting stronger and quicker will make a huge difference for those long guys.
