Really tired of hearing that we need to give it a few more years because the upper class men are not Archie's guys. That's a total cop out. That does not mean they can't be developed. That does not mean they can't be motivated. Doesn't mean they aren't basketball players.They are either part of the team or they are not. Shame on Archie if it took him 3 years to figure out they aren't.

Davis has played a lot better since “Cheergate.” Green on the hand... mostly bad. Green can be benched. But Davis has actually seemed to care.

Agreed. I'm so tired of being told that we're being impatient and unreasonable. The honeymoon period is over for Archie. We're over halfway through year 3 and he still struggles to put a competent offense onto the court. Our players are soft. We don't have any difference makers coming in next season, so there's little hope on the horizon. The time for excuses is over. Archie needs to put up or shut up.

Of course, it's easier for the people in charge to blame the fans instead of looking in the mirror and reflecting on their shortcomings. Sure, we put a horrible product on the court, but it's the fans' fault for being mad about in online. They're the problem!

The fans aren't the reason why we just scored 49 points against PSU and looked completely incompetent on offense. The fans aren't the reason why Archie insists on playing Green all game long even when he is killing us on both ends.

After Greens hero ball antics cost us the Maryland Game there’s no reason he should have not even played. Archie isn’t capable of accountability.
 
What happened to that shortened rotation he talked about. Oh yeah just talk. 

For some reason he will only play those guys. We were down by 20 and the end of the bench still didn’t see a single second.

I'm an Archie backer but I'm in agreement with you. You can't threaten and then not follow through or digress later. People sense that lack of will. I'd rather lose by 20 with players who give their all than lose by 10 with more talented players.

Exactly you can’t threaten action unless you mean it. Some of the worst leaders I have ever dealt with threatened action all the time but never followed thru. Destroys credibility.

After a day to reflect I am still disappointed. I know I am old and iu has sucked for 40 years but I am not one to accept crap like last night. That should be a once maybe twice a year deal. I know it is beaten to death I say iu should be better and the other people say this is who we are now accept it. This is not acceptable. Don Fischer was on Dan's radio show last year or 2 years ago a d his thoughts were same as mine this is not ok. I usually take a day and rethink game thread but today I am negative. If u guys look up don complaining about effort on Dan's radio show give it a listen wish I could find it. It is alarming
