Norm took over a disaster of a program, on a sorts of levels.

Marco Baldi:  The only poster I know who could be a Norm apologist through five years but kills the Mullin staff after 1+.

Said this many times over the years,...what's worse? Not getting top talent and losing, or getting top talent and still in the same place? At the bottom.

This is a message board. The silence from some posters is deafening

What does any of this have to do with Norm? I keep telling people if you keep saying his name he might return and poke your eyes out with bad basketball.

One thing is clear:  you can't keeping turning over coaches and expect to be successful. Every change is followed by an exodus which, in turn, is followed by the the youngest or least experienced team in the country.

Look at the top ten....every coach but one (Alford 4 seasons) has been at their respective school for at least 8 seasons. Pitino and Higgins are #11 and #12. Nearly the entire top 25 is headed by a longtime coach or top assistant promoted from within the program.

Mullin and staff will turn this around, and we will all be happy they learned on the job the first year and a half.

Many of the best posters from this board are still posting, just on the other board.

Our talent is good . Just not good enough to be starters as Frosh and Sophs w the exception of Ponds and Lovett. We also need a tough bigman, who has an inside game and can rebound.

You are killing the staff a mere 1.5 years in after you killed Lavin - and mullin quickly got rid of the problem kids who you didn't like anyway.  Now one of the most forgiving norm apologists you are giving our living legend crap in the beginning of year 2 w our best player hurt?  Hard to believe you rare a johnnies fan before you are the ultimate contrarian sometimes...

Are we not allowed to criticize the staff?  Everyone needs to get better, from Mullin down to the cheerleaders.

Also, Norm is my cousin

It's not silence from other posters that is deafening... it's you over-shouting everyone else that is deafening... this board has turned unreadable because of you and a couple of other posters.
