Recruiting of players and assistant coaches is substandard, preparation for games subpar, game coaching questionable at best, substitutions and player rotations terrible and never with any logical pattern, conditioning below standard, flexibiolity in coaching to the talent a coach has is an unknown to Tubby, discipline is selective, drive to be the best and working to get there is not what Tubby is all about and I'll quit there. Tubby has not just caused underachievement of our Program this year but for the last 7 with the target being a legitimate shot at the Final Four every year!!

I guess I should first say that we are playing better than we were 3 weeks ago but we still aren't playing good enough to make a difference. Next I have to say Tubby cost us the LSU game. Why would you draw up a play for Thomas to take the game tying basket? He took a 4 foot shot that didn't draw metal. What was wrong with Morris? There wasn't anyone that could handle him down low or Sparks coming off a screen? This is not the first time that Tubby has made a coaching blunder at game end. Another was when he sat Sparks at the end of a game this year that cost us. What about the Mich. ST overtime loss last year and not starting Hayes. I would much rather see us lose with the ball in the hands of one of our scorers. These were all no brainer as far as I am concerned. Bailey

No, Tubby isn't causing this horrible season. At least not by himself. He is the one responsible however and must shoulder the bulk of the blame. He does not however shoot the free throws, rebound or shoot. We've had much less talented teams under Tubby that did all of these things better than this group. So I guess I won't vote since there is not a "Partially" that I can chose.

^BC, you are totally correct and I'm glad you knew I was just kidding. You are much better at remaining level headed than this impulsive old fart is.

Nothing wrong with calling it like you see either. Sure would get boring if we all agreed wouldn't it. ;D

^ BC, yes it would but it seems like the differences of opinion are being handled with so much more respect lately.

If anyone thinks it's not Tubby's fault take a aspirin immediately, go to bed and call me in the morning.

Technically, if you think that Coach Smith is "causing this terrible season" then you would have to believe that he is making all of these mistakes on purpose. I'm sure that no none thinks that he is sabotaging the team.
However, if you think that a head coach is mainly responsible for recruiting talent, assembling affective assistants, developing players, analyzing strategies, maintaining morale, etc......then yes, Coach Smith could be perceived as causing the outcome.
......just trying to agree while squelching my growing negativity.....
But, playing the "devil's advocate", I'm sure if Coach Smith knew how to fix things, he surely would. Moreover, I still think that we are fortunate to call a 10 loss season a horrible one.

MBH, you're getting almost as "politically correct" as BC is. .

Yes, I know. It was fun being the "anti-Tubby" in years past. But, now there are so many of them that my creativity has been snuffed. I keep thinking of something bad to say about Coach Smith, but everyone beats me to it. I have been robbed of my wit. All I have left is to agree with someone else. I am no longer a voice in the wilderness; only a voice in a growing crowd. I think I'll go outside and stand in the rain........bye now.
