Just an observation, and im not saying im there yet.. But in the event that Pope is not the guy for this job, say that this is a given fact that will eventually be proven..
.. you'd almost not mind losing this game to speed up the process. Just saying. We just lost the first quarter (or almost) to a team thats in the 330s of Kenpom. This isnt anything like losing to Richmand or Oakland.
Yes basketball is runs, im sure we will get better. But even Cal didnt have these types of lackluster performances for 95% of his time here. If pope's not the guy, the sooner we move on the better. Cant have this be a 3 or 4 year trial. If we cant compete, hes gotta go and fast
