I would settle for someone just to walk into Hewitt's office, point out that Carmelo is not on the roster, and ask if he would consider banishing the isolation one on four offense. Is it possible for a coach to realize his system is like kryptonite for his players and change it mid-season?

Can we ban PMP..stop G Maps and go to a board to root for your school. Jesus must be some sour graduate from a lesser school or something.

I don't fear the truth - cannot stand people with no respect for their institution and will go down on the school when the team is having a crappy season. And like others - until I see your sheep skin I ain't buying your a grad.

Don't be a dumb a**. I have a degree from G Mas and I enjoyed my time there and respect the institution. Then again, I don't give a rats a** what you believe.

I'd rather he fix his nondefensive system. You can win games when you go cold or sputter on offense so long as you can defend. We can't turn other teams over, can't rebound, can't stop penetration into the paint, can't stop entry passes, can't close out on shooters, can't trap without fouling, can't force players into bad shooting positions, can't force them into dead corners or take away passing lanes.

We play defense in the second half of games and we'd be 16-3 just like GW.

Perfect storm of a bad season and some kid who gets his rock off on making it worse post after draining post.

Can I ask a semi serious question? Is it possible that TOC is trying to sabotage the programs before he leaves? I mean, think about it. Coach L, our winningest coach in history of the program, took us to the final four in 2006 and could have done it again, brought in Hewitt since he had a "name." Do you think they are secretly bff's and just wanted to help his buddy make some more money before they both retire to Florida!?

Just a thought!

No not at all. I think at the time and given the circumstances it seemed the best play to make. However, I would expect that TOC or his successor will look at this season and say its time to part ways - really that is the only good thing to come from this season.

I just feel sad for the players... we are pretty much ALWAYS in these games and then we just lose it. Frustrating.

We're just a crappy team with a coach who is incapable of making adjustments to make us less crappy. Sherrod and Allen have been great at times for our program, and I thank them for that; but I wont be shedding any tears when the move on.

Wright summed up his season on consecutive possessions in the second half when he threw the ball away and then created a dumb foul out of frustration, and I'm losing track of the number of open layups Allen has missed.

They aren't the sole reason we suck as bad as we do — that ultimately falls on the coach — but I'm tired of being labeled a senior-laden team when our two top senior fail to step up game after game. And even though J2 had several dumb turnovers today, I do give him props for showing up offensively. That's certainly more than we can say for Copes, who once again picked up two early fouls and proved to be a non-factor.

I don't know about 16-3, but I can't disagree. I can't agree more actually. Every A-10 game is the same. We look semi-capable on D in the first half, only to give up 46 or so in the 2nd half. It's ridiculous.

Ha, I was pleading as we came back down the floor on offense for that possession, Copes, don't set a moving screen, don't set a moving screen and damned if he did not set one of the worst screensI have ever seen. I just laughed.
