Rice 🪭 men’s thread
- Thread starter TU 1978
- Start date
Have we had a game where we’ve scored less than 40. I’ve got a feeling it’s coming soon.
Konkol is done. Get him out of here. How pathetic we can’t even compete with rice
When 3 of your starters are scoreless and act like they are afraid to shoot then you’re probably picking the wrong first five.
This is the type of thing that was clearly evident from about the 2nd day the coach was here if you knew what you were looking for.
‘Konkol is in over his head’ was just an accurate of a statement back then as it is today.
Thanks. I just follow along for the drama, not the actual event.
Central Michigan won today, Pritchard had a triple double. Maybe it was the coach more than the player at Tulsa? Oh, this is the Tulsa game thread... my mistake...
the K era can’t end too soon. A pathetic effort against a mediocre team. Not one player wanted to give the effort to win.
Surely Moore and Carson know it’s time for a change. Now would be better than year end.

That gives you a head start for getting a new staff, because you won’t be considering any of the current assistant coaches.
I still am not absolutely confident he will get canned this year.
It really can't get much worse than this. I mean, it can always get worse (e.g., Konkol's first year), but within the universe of results that TU can realistically have, this is about as bad as it gets. Rice was 3-11 in the AAC and had lost 11 of their last 12, including losses to 3-11 Charlotte and 4-10 UTSA. I naively thought we'd bottomed out but I'm not sure there is a bottom with Konkol.
The radio crew said we match up better with Tulane than Rice for next game.

It'll be nice as a fan to see the boys only lose by 12 instead of 21.The radio crew said we match up better with Tulane than Rice for next game.

I'm not either. But not many supporters are going to have any enthusiasm for a fourth Konkol season. This team is almost as poor as his first team. I don't think he can turn it around. If he is retained, I really hope he proves me wrong.
The problem is he could be 50% better and it still wouldn't be enough.
There are many that were weary from the start of this staff. Why not just give an extension. 🤣
The fact that the current AD rewarded him with that extension just a few months ago is still puzzling.
I thought that Dickson was responsible for that extension.
Yes, Dickson was the mastermind of that deal.
We appear to have lost all confidence, energy and effort today. It shows up everywhere in our FG shooting, rebounding , FT shooting, and defense. Unfortunately it is approaching the same thing I saw in December of 2004 , the night ORU beat us in the Reynolds Center 70-47.
From TulsaHurricane.com on 9/5/2024:
After leading the Golden Hurricane to an 11-win improvement in his second season at the helm, Tulsa men's basketball head coach Eric Konkol's contract was extended through the 2029 season, University of Tulsa Vice President and Director of Athletics Justin Moore announced today.
I'm not 100% positive, but I think that decision had already been made before Moore was hired.
Yes it was said that Dickson approved and agreed to the extension and left it to Moore to announce. Moore had no reason or knowledge to contradict Dickson at that point.
All I can say for sure is that the press release only mentions Moore. Even if not originally responsible for this fiasco, it may not be a good look for him to pull it almost immediately after it was put into place.
We should let everyone we know we are fed up

just walked out of the theater and noticed a basketball thread
Regarding that situation, it was more of the other players (cancers) on that squad and in conjunction with a need to be further away from distractions in the Tulsa area if he was ever to be successful... It was a good move for the kid.
