I understand this has been a crazy year and it's only gotten crazier since the season ended, but our lack of support for CTC and the team cannot be helping our situation... https://twitter.com/jeffrabjohns/status/448191687588737024

I say the same thing about 50% of the time when you post as well.

I support the program. Not coaches. Not players. I have supported those who are a part of this program until they force me not to. Its concerning to see so many worried about criticism. Our recruiting has been great...its the team development that is concerning.

Maybe I misunderstood your statement.

What the heck is wrong with some of you guys. 99% of the time it is better to say nothing, but so often people feel like they need to take dumb little jabs here and there

I've said it before, and I'll say it again.  Supporting the team and being critical are not mutually exclusive, and after this disaster of a season criticism should be considered fair game.

It's the rumors of Tom Crean's firing, rumors of us seeking out Mike Woodson (please god don't do that to us), players hearing rumors that THEY are transferring, the booing at games with recruits (Marvin Clark) sitting behind the bench. All of that is just so reactionary and harmful to a program. Doesn't make a bad situation any better. Pretty sure Crean and the players have received plenty of criticism from those much more knowledgeable than most of us who post in here. I just hope we here some good news by weeks end haha.

The thing is, the people doing those things you just mentioned likely aren't even posting on this message board.  They are not going to hear your message in this forum.  These types of posts tend to be taken as criticism of message board criticism which to me, venting on this forum is fair game.  Taking to social media to rumor-monger and spread false rumors and hate, that is a whole different ball of wax.  And yes some good news would be VERY welcome about now!

Every post you read doesn't need a response. When someone annoys you, use the ignore feature in your profile and you won't see any more posts from them...

This works on just about everyone, except me. You are 100% stuck seeing everything I post. :)

WOW! Glad I missed those. Course, when you're hung like a field mouse the photos are not really that obscene.

His long and elegant mullet was able to cover that little rascal in the ones I saw

They really liked him.

Really? I didn't know he was their brother?

Think they thought he was a sister.

Think they thought he was a sissy.

Fixed.

I'm not sure how being critical of Crean, which is warranted with his handling of the team this season, and now the transfers, would lead someone to believe you're not a supporter of the team. The reason many are critical is because they want the team to succeed. In my opinion someone starting a rumor about a player transferring has nothing to do with their support of Crean or the team, it's just someone who wants to stir the bees nest, because they know it'll get a reaction.
