Realize the lyrics donāt really apply but the title āFunk 49ā definitely describes my mood. From Joe Walsh (with a little help from Daryl Hall etc):

Donāt know where this belongs but I always assumed that Charlotte would be a basketball school. Based on the past 3 months it appears we have a much better chance of becoming a football school! And a good one!
We havenāt been a basketball school since before we even had a football team. We were a soccer school there for awhile.

From 11-3 to 13-10, and sinking faster than a deflated Chinese spy balloon. Who saw this coming?
Itās not getting easier. Nothing too soft like the start of the season is on the remaining schedule. There is a real possibility of finishing below .500
If Aly isnāt able to get back to form health wise, thatās a good probability. That would be 4 scholarship players sitting on the bench not contributing. Including our team MVP and only center.
There are new excuses every year. Iām so tired of hearing them.

Lolā¦here come the excuses.
Heās had going on 5yrs to recruit another centerā¦and to recruit enough depth that 1 player being out doesnāt completely sabatoge the team.
Againā¦thatās on him too.

Iām thought our mvp has come off the bench all season?
Just an opinion as they say. Aly has been the most constant all-round player snd our offense, su h as it is, runs best when heās on the court.

If we lack quality depth isnt that on the coaching staff as well? Recruiting? Player development?

Covid
Covid did play a big part this time around (apparently still does). Recruiting is 100% on the staff & HC, which was why it was time for Bobby to go. Alan was getting recruits and eventually might have succeeded, but he got sick. Now until the player transfer portal setttles down, there will be no player development, just roster management. Face it weāre been cursed ever since Marquette hit that final shot. Hense our common refrain of pulling a Niner or the refs stole the game, or a key player gets hurt/sick at the absolute worst possible time, or UNC Cheat uses players that should have been academically intelligible to beat us, or we lose a game when weāre up big at the half, or lose to someone we could have or should have beaten. Ron has been bringing in some recruits and I hope heās learned his lesson and stps bringing in P5 players moving down instead of good lower league players moving up. We just need more better players.

Comparing Sanchez to the Final 4 team, the great teams of Melvin and Bobby, that is a new low
I just want to make the point that both of these posts can be (and are) correct. Itās possible to hold two ideas in oneās head at the same time, especially when they are both true. And we dont have to try to actively divide the board into pro and anti Sanchez camps the way everything else these days is done. We are all Niner fans. At the end of the day, I believe that we all just want to win. However, we have varying ways of dealing with it when we donāt, especially when basketball has struggled for so very long.
