not great- good...rebuilt last year...and now should be judged on how he does this season...
There are plenty on here saying expectations were too high for our team because it was based on Sidney playing- yet Pelphrey had to play 14 games without Fortson...I'm curious to see how they do down the stretch...they have the remaining schedule to have a shot at the West
In his first year at Arkansas Pelphrey finished 3rd in the West, lost 14 games, and got a 9 seed in the NCAAs.
You called that a "good year". Does this mean expectations at Arkansas are lower for you than at Mississippi State?
that make me remind you and Meo of dumb **** you say, as I did on Saturday about our "efficient offense". In no way did I want anall out breakdown of Pelphrey- I saidthe Westwould be interesting to watch the rest of the way with their schedule. Pelphrey didnt lose 14 games either numbnuts, he went 23-12 and got bounced by 1 seed NC in round 2 in his first season....3rd in the West? So what? All that is for is for seeding in the SEC Tourney. Tourney season, rebuilding, now results are needed. I am curious to see how they finish out this season- they have Auburn and LSU twice, Mississippi, SC, and Vandy at home, winnable game at Georgia, road games at Bammer and Tennessee....at 3-3, you have to admit they could possibly make it interesting down the stretch..
Stansbury has had some good years- never said he didnt. I have said, and probably a million times, that we will never have a
great year under Stansbury. He even managed to ruin 2004, but it wasnt all bad with an SEC title.
You have got to get overthis "success in the West" crap.Basketball is not football or baseball- success in the West doesnt mean you have accomplished a damn thing in basketball- hell, look at the standings today- that tells it all.
