2023-24 49er MBB Game #17 Charlotte @ Rice 1/16 8:00 PM ESPN+

It’s been a long time since we have been on a role like this. Let’s promote our program with an expectation that good things are in front of us. Encourage your circle to attend a game.

A full Halton is electric and energizing. I call on our AD to fill Halton, no matter what it takes, for our next game. It can be done!!!

The interim tag should be removed for this alone.

The interim tag has been removed already. Does this tell us something?

If you are a fan, get off your butts and show up at the next game…and bring the piss and vinegar.

Go Niners!

Any update on Patterson? I, too, noted that was holding his left rib area. Hopefully just cramps…they all looked exhausted after that marathon.

Loved the gutty win. It would have been more impressive and less stressful if we’d hit more of the FTs we got. WHEW! Patterson’s three as the shot clock expired was :fire:.

I would like to see us try to find Jackson down low before Patterson drives and forces a shot. Some of his shots near the end were low %, imo. Maybe trying to draw a foul but didn’t happen on those fade always in the lane. Glad to see us battle back.

Where did Ted go??!!

Still here, and I’m glad to see you’ve been a voice of reason with some of the trolls that insist we throw money at hiring a name or " hot commodity" coach with money we don’t have and with money they don’t want to donate to pay for.

As a life long college basketball fan, I wish we could, but as part of the ā€œbuy-inā€ to the AAC invite, was the commitment to the facility upgrades. With Title 9, we were already having to spend more on women’s sports by adding football. Until we meet the funding goal for the facility upgrades, we don’t have extra money to spend.

For those who think money grows on trees in Charlotte, keep in mind that most of the movers & shakers, aren’t alumni, and if they’re making large donations, they tend to go elsewhere. We’ve lost a lot of the old guard that believed that investing in the home town university was good for the city. I’m not sure if the current leaders have that as a priority anymore.

I vote that no pic of that guy or mention of his name, ever appear in rhe forum ever again ! :face_with_open_eyes_and_hand_over_mouth:

Okay. We can double or triple the money for guys on our list, such as jmu head coach so this idea that we dont have the money is simply untrue. Also, you say "hot commodity " coach like its a bad thing. It would be a nice change to hire a proven coach

We have a proven head coach now, we just don’t know the recruiting side. There are a lot of coaches that are good with one side or the other, but not both. Bobby was a good bench coach & motivator, but not a good recruiter. Biff is a good recruiter and motivator, but I’m not sure if he’s a good x & o guy. That’s what his coordinators and staff are for.

No matter what someone has done elsewhere, does not guarantee the same results here or anywhere else. A lot depends on the staff around them. With NIL at this point in time, I’m not even sure how much the coach matters. What made college basketball so much fun back in the day, was the players played for the coach, the team and the school. It’s currently getting to the point where that’s not the case anymore.

He is 10-7. How is that proven? He has 1 good win. 1. Plus 2-3 losses that are at least partially his fault

Good win last night. Life on the road can be tuff. Got down but didn’t quit. Showed some balls to come back and win it in OT.

Looks like JT is kinda out of the rotation. Coulda made it easier on ourselves by hitting FTs. Need to clean that up!

Lost our top 2 players, by a mile btw, and he’s got the guys buying in and playing hard. Got the Job when douchebag Sanchez left in JUNE. 10-7 is pretty damn good
