Well TU blew another game,
Missed shots, poor defense on the 3's, and turnovers...
Poor coaching especially during the last 2 to 4 minutes.
The Horne lay-up was a charge it happened 20 feet in front of me. The man on defense was putside the arc and both feet were set.

Looked like that to me too. Just pull it out with a lead and run a play. Rollo said that but Bruce must have tugged on his jacket and made him modify that thought . Bruce did not want to say anything bad about Horne.

The guy did hit a tough shot. But it should not have come to that. I thought we might lose considering how poorly we played in the first half.

Really at this point it does not matter. We all must simply assume a very high likelihood of losing as a condition of being a spectator. I have gotten there myself.

May show up Saturday though if Pressey will be there and honored at half. Is he still coaching? Will he have the day off?

If we ran a poll on here on who thinks Haith should stay, I would guess 95% or more of posters want a coaching change.

If we could include all those posters who have given up & no longer even bother visiting this forum, the fire Haith number would climb to 98% or more!

Is there even 1 person here who thinks he should stay? Doubtful.

I suspect it is 100%.

We have 1 poster who thinks he should stay till we can allocate more money to replace him and make facility ugrades. That's it.

And could run out clock or get fouled. That is just really stupid basketball. Not coaching.

Ah yes. Forgot.

I don't think he really thinks that..... You carry the water you're told to carry.....

Yet another game where a self-respecting program would have relieved Frank of his duties before he got to the locker room.

Now I understand where 95% came from. 19/20.

We are at the bottom of the table for a reason.

Now I have to decide if it is worth coming out for our Saturday ass whipping to see some former greats as half.

wonder if the former greats will wear sacks over their heads?

We don’t have a NET

rating. Our rating is more

like NYET. Simply NYET.

Maybe Pressey will come for the rcognition and decide he wants to stay to bail out his Alma mater.

At the end of the John Phillips era we had one poster remaining that felt Phillips should continue. He never posted again after JP resigned at least under that screen name. He also was a big Wojcik fan and just a loyal TU fan who believed everything the losing coaches would tell him.

Not saying anything bad about Horne. The defense guy made a great play, sadly it was like watching Jackson move in to take the charge. We have seen Jackson make that same play countless times and cheered him on..., it is just a bummer when the opposing player takes a page out of the Jackson Playbook!

Never should have been in that position.

Our defense the last 5 minutes was what we needed the other 35 minutes.

Our offense was bad throughout. Haith called out the poor guard play and he was right.

I think the game was lost the first half. When ECU was 1- 13 from outside and we didn't take huge advantage. We should have been up 10 or 11 at half without the turnovers. Haith (or was it Toby) was shuffling players every 45 seconds and there was no continuity. The first half officiating allowed stripping the ball and ECU took advantage on Griffin and Pritchard. I know Pooh Williamson cringed seeing TU guards eaten up.
