Looking ahead

Quote

He once mentioned that he had left the classroom for a district office job. Probably because he was a shitty teacher.

I'm at the point where I'm not sure where to "look ahead" to?  Our team of 13 players and a few coaches are clearly afflicted.  We can't get through a season with at least 5-10 episodes of major strife.  Other programs clearly don't have this much.   We have kids and coaches out every week for family and personal illness, deaths, births, grades, transfers, fights, suspension, cryptic violations, ineligibility and the like for several seasons now.  Maybe we should just forget about this basketball thing.

when MCN starts getting down we are really in trouble

Hang in there it ain't over yet. Despite all of this we still technically control our destiny. We are still improved from last year and our ability to recruit better players has increased (Jordan). If we fail to make the playoff it will be a step back. It is still an improvement (however slight) from last year. This season is a bizarre one as I have ever seen...a birth and a death in the same  week...Has this ever happen before? Despite all that their is hope...

Sadly the fluctuation in the Lavin era is just as frustrating since Louie left. #redmencurse

We mail it in because everybody is getting personal leave at critical junctures.  This has happened for several seasons now.  We are not in an enviable position right now.

WHo Knows?  It is a stolen phrase from Dottie Pepper, esteemed golf analyst and bad tempered girl from Saratoga Springs.  Referenced a Solheim Cup choke by American players, she thought mike was off.  Great moment.  Like Uncle Miltie, I steal my lines.

Uncle Miltie? You've  just identified yourself as a dinosaur. As have I.

From what I have been told, Realfan never put down individual players but was just very tough on the former coaching staff, which he happened to be right about all along according to Mr. Mjmaherjr.

With the DePaul game in the rear view mirror, the bottom line is, we need 3 more wins.  Beating Marq on the road and making the BE finals will get us in.  If we lose to Marq next weekend, we need to win the BET! 

I say we win all 4 and get out of the last 4 in, play in game!!
