Coaching is all that lost that game

If they can't play the game, it's his fault. He either should have recruited better players or done a better job coaching them. Either way, it's on him. Hell, I could go out and coach this team to lose a game to a mid-major. But I guess it wouldn't be my fault since it would be the players who screwed everything up.
was happening long before any of these players ever donned the Maroon and White. Its the same ******** season after season. The players come and go, but there has been one mainstay through all of it. No go ahead and take up for Stans. I've kept quiet about him for a long time, hoping that this group of players had a collective talent that even the Recruiter couldn't 17 up, but once again he shows his true colors. We never look prepared, he never has the respect of his players, and they obviously practice like a Junior High team. All of his was evident last season, especially on our little island fiasco last season. Who was I to think it would change this year??
There is no GD way a SEC team, with the "Supposed" amount of talent this team has, comes out and plays like that at home. You think Tennessee or Kentucky would have a game that 17ing sloppy against an inferior team. ****, the Zips would have been throwing in the towel at halftime against almost every other team in the SEC. Its the same **** every GD year. Stans looks at these games as practice games, he tries multiple combinations in tight ballgames (which he should already know from scrimmaging and exhibition games) and 17's up any slim chance we have of making the tourney. Even in early season games when we build a slight 6-10 point lead, he will pull 3-4 starters, AT ONE 17ING TIME, and all momentum is lost and we struggle to win. Has he not grasped the concept of subbing one player, two at most, at at 17ing time? Do his assistants not have enough sense to tell his dumbass that pulling almost every starter kills any and all momentum you have? I didn't watch the game tonight and thank God we dont get ESPNU because I might have broken my 55" Samsung LED watching us **** the bed. It's happens almost every season. **** we had to make a run through SEC tourney and win it to make the tourney last time we went. I'm done with him. Unless he finishes 10-6 in SEC play, I say we move on. It's obvious the guy can only win West Championships, and that **** is no longer available.

Yes, Dee Bost runs around and does whatever he wants. And yes, some of that blame should be on him. Stansbury allowing it to continue to happen is the problem. We had the same issue when Gordon was here. Everyone would just pile on about how selfish he was and all the turnovers. If one person is being selfish, take him out. That is squarely on the coach. So why doesn't Stans take them out? Because he knows the only chance in hell we have of scoring is ifBost creates something himself. Stans sure as heck has no offensive game-plan in place.<div>
</div><div>I said before the year even started exactly what this season would turn out to be. I'm not trying to act like I know everything, but we have 15 years of history to tell us what was going to happen. We would lose at least one to two games early on that we shouldn't (Akron), we will end up going around 9-7 in league play because most of the SEC teams play as undisciplined as we do, and then have to either get to the finals or win the SEC championship to make the tourney. We then go in as a 8-12 seed and don't advance past the second round. If anyone went into the season expecting anything different, its your own fault.</div>

Why are any of you blaming coach Stansbury or your players.
Your opponent (Akron) was better prepared and came with
players just as talented as Mississippi State players.
You always need to be prepared to face a tough opponent.
Diminishing the Zips makes you look petty. They came to
play and laid the wood to the Dawgs. MSU is a quality
team and so is Akron. The Zips have won six 20+ seasons
in a row. They gave Notre Dame fits in the NCAA last year.
The Zips are not some schlock program.
MSU failed to take advantage of having more "bigs"
than Akron. Granted, Akron's main "big", Marshall,
is a better player than either Sidney or Moultrie. But,
there was only one of him. Looked to me that Akron's
strong and deep front court players (Cvetinovic, Diggs,
Harney, and Treadwell) took control of the game.
Guard play was a wash. Bost is a great guard.
Zips fans want State to have a great season; this win
could spring the Zips into an at large NCAA bid or
at least a high RPI for the Bracket Busters.

It has nothing to do with how good Akron is/isn't. We've got 4 future NBA players starting...or so I've been told
If this was the first time State had ever done something like this, then yes, we would be wrong for diminishing Akron. But we lose games like this IN THE EXACT SAME WAY EVERY YEAR. We get outschemed and outworked and have no discernible plan. So while I don't mean to diminish what Akrron did last night, please don't fool yourself into thinking you've done something special. Ask Rider. Ask Miami (OH). Ask Florida Atlantic, East Tennessee, Charlotte, San Diego or South Alabama. They've all done the same thing and springboarded.....to nothing.
Oh, and bragging about "giving Notre Dame fits" last year comes off as pathetic. We gave Memphis and Duke fits when we played them in the second round as 8/9 seeds a few years back. We still lost and nothing good came of it.
