Right now, I’d have to agree.Howland is/was a better coach than Jans. We have regressed back to Rick Ray days
This could be worse than year 3 Rick Ray. Can’t believe I’m saying that.Howland is/was a better coach than Jans. We have regressed back to Rick Ray days
Went all in and Tenn beat the spread. I'm going to Tahiti.Congrats to this team on losing only by single digits on the home floor!!
A very true reality with everyone being players and coachesEveryone has quit and is collecting that paycheck for nothing
We lost to SC Upstate and blown out by McNeese State in 14/15It sucks, but let's not lose our heads. Ray was abysmal. This was probably his best team...

I say this in the most respectful way possible, but Ballard and Jones starting is an embarrassment to the game of college basketballas I type this, Ballard has 1 board in 21 minutes of PT.
I may be one of the few these days that is holding on to a thread of hope that Jans will figure it out next year, but his hit rate in the portal over the last 4 years has to be the worst in P4. It’s abysmalWe suck. This is where the portal can go wrong in a big way. Better luck next year
Have to disagree. We paid a million dollars for Ballard. And Hubbard is the highest paid athlete on campus. It’s poor talent evaluation on Jans’ part.I guess it's easy to blame Jan's. Fire and hire would give everyone hope for a quick fix But I'm really seeing a school (football and basketball) struggling to acquire talent in the NIL era.
Jans coaches well out of conference and forgets everything in sec play? No. The cigar boys better double down and acquire some size and talent. Otherwise, it will be more of the same for the next coach.
However I have a bad feeling... we are getting what we can afford.
Arkansas decided to spend to get a good roster. Not sure we are committed to that level with basketball.Jans desperately wanted that Arky job. Not getting it may have wrecked him. Looks doubtful to me that he can recover.
Rick Ray won 6 conference games that year. And as bad as we were, I didn’t get as mad about it because as untalented as we were those teams gave it everything they had.This could be worse than year 3 Rick Ray. Can’t believe I’m saying that.
1. I dint think anyone is saying fire jans. At least not many.I guess it's easy to blame Jan's. Fire and hire would give everyone hope for a quick fix But I'm really seeing a school (football and basketball) struggling to acquire talent in the NIL era.

Agreed that's a poor decision on Ballard. But 6-10 guys aren't plentiful. I imagine Ballard is what State could get to come to school.Have to disagree. We paid a million dollars for Ballard. And Hubbard is the highest paid athlete on campus. It’s poor talent evaluation on Jans’ part.
We cannot and will not outspend UPig on basketball. Just not ever going to happen.Arkansas decided to spend to get a good roster. Not sure we are committed to that level with basketball.
Yep. And this is also the reason we can outspend them in football & baseball. Same as Kentucky.We cannot and will not outspend UPig on basketball. Just not ever going to happen.
Which is why Jans desperately wanted the Arky job to begin with. He's wrecked.We cannot and will not outspend UPig on basketball. Just not ever going to happen.
That's just makes me sad and mad at the same time. Is our staff that incompotent? Every time I watch him, it seriously looks like he's never set foot on a court. Can't score, can't rebound, can't protect the paint. And can't set a pick worth a crap.Have to disagree. We paid a million dollars for Ballard. And Hubbard is the highest paid athlete on campus.

Pretty obvious that any coach hired by Cohen either is bad or will end up bad. Still suffering from his AD tenure.Howland is/was a better coach than Jans. We have regressed back to Rick Ray days
