That was awful. No argument. But.... we had kids who were not capable of playing in the Big Ten. We had players from Elon, Davidson, Sam Houston State, etc. We had no size. We had kids who thought they were far better than they were (Conerway) and didn't value the ball or defense. We had kids (also Conerway) who were just happy to be here.
Blame the roster on DeVries. I get it. Ryan Carr was hired for a reason. Blame him for underestimating the talent needed in the Big Ten. But also give the guy credit for winning 18 games, 9 in the Big Ten, with a very average mid major roster. DeVries will be a better coach without Tucker on the team. Nobody is going to be patient beyond next season. I get that, too. But anyone calling for his firing now? Who do you think we'd be able to attract after firing 3 coaches in 6 years?
Watching that garbage was painful. Truly gross. I get all of it. We can't fire him now, and I hope Scott Dolson is in his office tomorrow and all over him. If you haven't heard it, do yourself a favor and watch Kent Sterling's post game video ion YouTube. His description of how that meeting should go is gold.
