Shouldn't we be rallying around our players?!?!

Personally, after losses when I was a high school athlete, I’d sulk around that night and get mad and practice early the next morning. Partying was never on the agenda except after a win, but like I said, this was high school, not college. I had a belief that the hardest workers are the best players. Thats just me.

That being said, if I had to have the coach TELL me I should be upset after a loss, it wouldn’t have mattered. If you’re not upset and beating yourself up after a loss, its probably because you are a loser. Sorry to be so blunt.

one thing is certain here, late night partying and gold digger groupies are not going to fix our defensive problems.

back to being optimistic, the odds of us losing 4 games in a row aren’t high so we should be playing this time next week. I’m not all that optimistic right now about playing a 1 or 2 seed however.

Hard to believe last week at this time we were talking about how we were going to crush USF and then hopefully make a run in the conference tournament.

Speaking from the perspective of a 21 year old, when I get my head handed to me in anything the last thing I want to do is party. At worst I could see wanting to get a drink or two, but clubbing after you just got clubbed! That tells me that some of them don’t have enough pride in this program. Good to know that our seniors are setting the right example though.

I drank after the loss to USF and Memphis.

Eddie rarely drinks, per the team and my personal experience. Leemire, I know, took the early season losses hard. I don’t know how he’s been handling the recent losses.

But, I think coach should lock down harder on a loss to USF than a loss to Memphis. They should have been forced to change in the girl’s locker room after that game, he should have worn them out for a loss like that. Instead, he played it off.

How can I be pissed at the players for not being overly upset at a loss, when our head coach doesn’t even appear to notice that we lost to USF?!? Maybe if Bobby channeled some of that anger at the refs, we wouldn’t have to worry about losses to Rutgers, USF and ECU.

Newsflash******- In another couple of weeks they can party all they want and go to all the clubs they want. One and Done does not deserve a party.

Exactly.

[b]They ended up getting flights out. A bus ride was planned, but flights were arranged. I personally would have preferred it if Bobby had parked their rears on bus seats and made them endure the 10 hours. And some players were allowed to stay behind and take their planned Sunday flight. So much for getting in a practice Friday or Saturday[/b]

I don’t know what team you’re talking about because the men’s team was sure as heck on a bus back to charlotte, and the ride was more like 12-13 hours.

Yeah Mitchell said it was a 12 hour bus ride

That is right. Another bogus report by one of our fans. I don’t know why so many 49er fans think they know how to coach a team or run a Div 1 program.

I’m sure Lutz will have his team motivated for Friday!!! Go NINERS!!!
