Nobody gets back on defense they love to celebrate after a bucket! It’s outrageous. You see anyone in a power 5 conference do this? No bc the coach would yank him if they celebrate & be lazy back on D. Somethings gotta give. I would pull the player by the hair if I was the coach & yank him for an extended period of time on the bench. Hopefully next year we get some kids who actually want to & like playing D ...and you would never coach again.

AD can take some blame for the scheduling nonsense, but not for the actual season. How involved is the AD for OOC scheduling? Question mark because I don't know. I assumed Coach Cluess was mostly in charge of that? I truly don't know.

Women’s team got Arizona to come to Hynes a few years back in a tourney. Why not dream? And that was before it was renovated.

That would be awesome if we can get some takers(maybe a Big East Team such as Butler or Creighton & Murray St or Dayton would come to New Ro. Let’s arrange it AD Matt & Coach Timmy! Make it happen. Pay it forward we need this I think Sacred Heart, Merrimack, Lafayette, Colgate would be more likely Those schools would be a massive upgrade over the team’s on this year’s schedule.

St. Louis Gael,you Know I think highly of you but I disagree with placing blame on the AD for the way this season turned out. Thank you sir. I did not and do not blame the AD (Athletic Director/Athletic Department) for the season - nor the players, nor the coaches. I am calling for the AD to see the void, take control of the situation; and mitigate the downward spiral. Maybe the AD has done that. I see no evidence of such from my perch in THE LOU. Do you all remember last season when Rickey tried to take over a TC huddle. Rickey was kicked out of the huddle, and sent to the end of the bench - despite or maybe because of the great "father figure" relationship between Rickey and TC. Maybe Coach Arnold does not yet have this in his DNA. I did see a little of it in Coach Mailhot. Man, I hope it's somewhere in the AD. Having said all of that, what Coach C was able to command out of Rickey ("maybe you should transfer"), out of EJ, and others; and have it all result in the incredible bond they enjoy is what makes TC such a special leader to those players. I don't know; maybe I am asking for too much of a reach.

We've had one mediocre year, which ended with us winning the championship, and 1 horrible year without our coach. And while extremely doubtful, we still haven't lost the championship this year. I swear some of you are spoiled brats. You complain about selfish players? you are the selfish ones. Team has given us a decade of wonderful basketball. Now they need us. There should be nothing but support. I wonder if Duke fans Called their 13-18 season without coach K a downward spiral.

Steady decline.
