Hanmu....you got some splaining ta do....

[Coach34]

you said this...


"The slightest drop off in recruiting for us will result in us going back to the days of 4-12 SEC records. Getting rid of Rick right now will most assuredly hurt recruiting"


and youalso said this....

" We have played a SWAC schedule because we have a SWAC team right now. No amount of coaching is going to make Twany Beckham into Dee Bost or Wendell Lewis into Renardo Sidney. As much as some of you like to dog Benock, the sumbitch is the best option we have at shooting guard by a country mile. What does that tell you"


So, to summarize- we couldnt get rid of "The Recruiter" because he recruits so well, yet minus Sidney and Bost, we have a SWAC team? How good is he really recruiting then? I hear that we never have NBA talent- so how good is he really recruiting?

Now then...you also said this:


"You can't fire a guy who continually goes 23-11 or so every year. I am not saying that is some kind of impressive feat but it is not horrible either. The risk of ruining where we are now is not worth it to me but that is just my opinion."

When you examine our OOC this year and the previous 5 years- it's damn near impossible to go 16-14. We play 14-15 games OOC each year, And at least 10 of those a season are against very sub-par teams. Our SOS is near the bottom of the SEC every season. Then to add to that, the SEC West is probably the weakest group of teams of all the BCS conferences. You knock Andy Kennedy so much- but he averages 20 wins also, and has 2 SEC West titles. Why should he be fired and not Stansbury?

And if your reply is because of our 2 NCAA Tourneys the last 5 seasons- thats fine. But what happens when we win 20 games this year and dont make the Tourney? Do we continue status quo?

And if you reply yes, we keep "The Recruiter" because of his incoming recruiting class- then do you agree John Pelphrey deserves to continue at Arkansas because of his top 5 in the nation recruiting class?

[tenureplan]

to sum up a bunch of comments made on a previous thread that is still on the first page?

 

[Goat Holder II]

It is Rick's antics OFF the court, not on, that should be criticized. You really can't fault him when his best players are suspended, especially with a hot shot recruiting class coming in next year. You can fault him for the transfers and the dumbassedness of Bost a little.

Look no further than Cam-gate to see the absolute ridiculousness of Sidney being on the bench right now. Not Rick's fault.

Done with you and Stansbury for the year.

 

[captaindawg]

how is that working out?

 

[Coach34]

and I felt it needed to be highlighted


the Pro-Recruiter's harp on his recruiting prowess and record. Then turn around and talk about how bad our team is right now and how our players arent very good. Then they throw out his record, yet downgrade Kennedy who is averaging just about the same number of wins the last 4 seasons.

It's hard for me to understand how his record is so good when 4 of the last 5 seasons it hasnt been good enough to get us into the NCAA Tourney.

 

[Coach34]

saying something is reasonable is not saying it will happen. But apparently it wasnt reasonable this season.

I did say we'd win 8 games and Ralph would be our QB- how did that workout?

 

[sleepy dawg]

I blame Stansbury for everything that happens with our basketball team. If our guys are suspended, that's on Stansbury too. He recruited Sidney knowing it was a really bad situation. There was a reason USC and UCLA yanked their scholarships from one of the best prospects in the country, and Stansbury knew that. Dee is suspended for his own stupidity, but I have to believe it could have been avoided if Stansbury and Bost were on speaking terms at the time... So yeah, I blame Stansbury for any loss we have, whether our players are suspended are not.

 

[captaindawg]

don't call out others when you can't backup your own predictions.

 

[BriantheDawg]

I am going on record to say that it just might be time to explore other options, as far as the head coach is concerned. Without Bost and Sidney, we do indeed have a SWAC team. There is NO excuse for that. We are seriously lucky to not be 0-5 right now.....and we have played absolutely ****** competition. Our teams in the past have not been anywhere close to the shittyness this year's team has displayed. The talent, which has not been NBA-type talent for sure, has been pretty good throughout his tenure, and that has always overridden his lack of coaching skills. I'd rather have good players than a good offensive scheme, when it comes to college basketball. I know you and D@A would probably disagree with that, but to each his own.

Now, from what I've seen so far this year, we don't have the players to overcome the ****** coaching and this is a major problem. If we 17 around and lose another couple of these OOC games that we have no business losing, and it keeps us out of the Tournament this year, Stansbury's seat will (and should) become very hot. If he's not let go, he will have one more year to get it turned around. If we don't make it this year or next, he should be gone. And he'll have no one to blame but himself.

 

[Hanmudog]

Looks self explanatory to me. There is alot more parity in college basketball these days. If you take the top 2 players off of any team then the playing field is leveled considerably. As far as recruiting goes, I was referring to the class coming next year. Doing anything to jeopardize that would be nuts.

Am I happy with everything Rick does? Hell no. In fact I stay pissed at just about every game. However, we generally come out on the winning end which is all that matters and I am just not into pretending we are going to fire a guy who just won 24 games last season and is starting this year without his top 2. It is a waste of energy because it ain't happening.

 

[wbc40]

He highlights his "correct" predictions and deflects and denies his incorrect predictions. Same song, different verse.

Luckily for his financial outlook, he bitched out when paindonthurt posed the $500 bet.

All that's left to do is wait on the Salesman's typical, ******** response on what the definition of "is" is.

Who hacked brianthedawg's account?

 

[Coach34]

there is no crawfishing. Just because people try to twist what I said doesnt make it so.

 

[HippyDawg]

Should have been done last year. Two more years of no tournament makes what 4 years in a row and 6 out of the last 8. Stansbury's failures starting from 4 years ago is the problem and has and is affecting recruiting (which is why we have a SWAC team right now). Hard to recruit top players when EVERY coach he goes up against can point to frequent & recent failure to reach the Tourney. He could still pull players a few years ago because we were coming off Tourney appearances. He has not been able to sell that for several years now and the proof is in the recruiting. His goose was cooked a few years ago and now we are going to ride it all the way to the bottom. Such a shame.

 

[BriantheDawg]

Tranny Beckham is the worst excuse for a basketball player I've ever seen.

Wendell Lewis is the worst excuse for a basketball player I've ever seen.

Elgin Bailey is the worst excuse for a basketball player I've ever seen.

Never has the 'talent' been this bad under Stansbury. That is all on him. With or without Dee & Renardo, we should be winning by double digits (at a minimum) against the competition we've played so far. Like I said earlier, we are damn lucky not to be 0-5 right now. That is simply unacceptable. Unless Kodi, Ravern, Dee and Renardo all play 40 minutes a game, every game the rest of the season, we are screwed.

 

[tenureplan]

?

 

[BriantheDawg]

Last year should have been our 3rd Tournament in a row and 4th out of the last 5th. The SEC refs and Mike Slive prevented that from happening, I don't give a 17 what anybody says, we were a 17'n Tournament team last year, so don't act like we've just been in this spiraling decline for several years now. Now, all of that does not excuse the fact that this year's team should be playing in the SWAC. That is what has me worried about the future. These playaz we are trotting out there right now flat out suck. And that is on Stans and is unacceptable. Stans's future all hinges on how good Renardo really is. If he doesn't live up to his billing, and we don't make the Tournament this year or next, he should be gone. But let's not act like it's been so bad for so long, because it simply has not.

 

[BriantheDawg]

John Riek is the worst excuse for a college basketball player I've ever seen.

The last 4 years we have been 24-12, 23-13, 23-11, and 21-14 with 2 NITs and 2 NCAAs. This does not even take into consideration the West titles that no one cares about and the SEC tournament title. Yeah we are on a rocket ship straight to hell with Rick.
And in case you have not paid attention to our recruiting for next year we have an awesome class coming in. Easily the best in many years.

Sometimes I think you guys that ***** the most are the ones that watch the least MSU basketball with some of thecomments yall make.

Did Mike Slive and the SEC refs cost us any of the following games?
Rider
Richmond
at Western Kentucky
at Auburn
at Alabama
at Arkansas
at Vandy
at Florida
Tennessee on senior day

Win any pair of those, and you season doesn't hinge on two excruciating losses to a top five team. The first six on that list are particularly galling. I'm not saying it's all on Rick either. Dee had FTs to beat Richmond and couldn't do it. Jarvis (I think) had a look at a potential game winner at WKU. But in all six of those, we were either not prepared, or didn't execute, or in the case of Arkansas and Auburn, made ZERO adjustments to stop one player who was killing us.

So no, we were not left out because Mike Slive kept us out. We were not a tournament team because we played ourselves into a position of having to beat the conference's sacred cow in the SECT finals to get in. And perhaps you have forgotten how the famous Stansbury stall worked in the last two minutes of that game as well.

He's garbage and don't worry he's showed us time and time again that no matter what talent he brings in he will not be able to make a basketball team of it. He gets paid to put a team together and we look like **** every year. This class is not as touted as Dee, Kodi, Bailey. All were 4 stars. Was Osby in that class too? Doesn't matter he left. Home state kid went to Oklahoma that says enough. The only thing that is ridiculous is people still defend him and the only thing that is considered SWAC is our coaching staff. SWAC and JUCU talent makes up our coaching staff. Parody? The only Parody in college basketball is how many fundamentally sound coaches there are. Not that we would know. I bet Hanmudog was a Ricks Rowdy. Biggest ***** out there. He probably was a croom backer too. I can see him now wearing his ricks rowdies shirt to basketball games and his maroon is the only color that matter shirt on Saturdays.

It is my belief that we will run an offense this season that centers around the QB- like Mullen did with Tebow- and not the offense last season that centered around the TB. If this is indeed the case, then Relf will be around the 27-30 TD mark this season running and passing.
I believe we will snap it to Relf on the goalline and let our badass FB lead Relf's 245 pound *** into the hole as opposed to getting in the wishbone and letting small back block for small backs- therefore giving Relf a boost in rushing TD's.
I think Relf is capable of throwing for 14-15 TD's with the people we have on offense and the OL that's in front of him.
I like our schedule with the OOC games and then games with Auburn, Georgia, Arkansas, Mississippi and Kentucky and their suspect secondary's.
LSU has a suspect run D

However, there is no guarantee that we will tailor the offense this way. With the influence of Hud and Koenning, we may do it a little differently. So, while I do have full confidence in my prediction- I don't have full confidence in how we will run the offense until I see it Saturday. </div>

You are a mental cripple. You show me one single, solitary post where I said Stansbury was a great or even good coach. All I am saying is that numbnuts like you can ***** until the cows come home but you are stuck with Stansbury until he turns in a record that is worthy of firing. 24-12 may not satisfy most of us but it does not get youfired either. Is that so 17ing difficult for a retard like you to understand?

Of course, coming from a guy whothinks Cohen has done a better job than Rick at MSU I should expect no less. As far as being a Rick's Rowdy, the answer is no. However, I do actually attend basketball games instead of just bitching incessently on a message board about a team I have not even seen play yet.

And my Cohen comment how dare I make that statement about the 2006 national coach of the year. Comparing our basketball program to baseball program I really shouldn't have. Our basketball program hasn't done ****.

Jeez. What is Cohen's record at MSU again?Our trophy case at MSU would be pretty damn bare without basketball over the last few years so "hasn't done ****" is a bit harsh don'tcha think?

It does not freaking matter whether I "accept mediocrity" or you "questfor excellence". Stansbury is not going anywhere untilhe turns in a record that merits a firing. We are not going to fire a coach because the fans are paranoid that the next Croom/Polk/Cohentype record is around the corner. When he does then I will be first in line wanting him gone.

"It is my belief that we will run an offense this season that centers around the QB- like Mullen did with Tebow- and not the offense last season that centered around the TB. If this is indeed the case, then Relf will be around the 27-30 TD mark this season running and passing.
I believe we will snap it to Relf on the goalline and let our badass FB lead Relf's 245 pound *** into the hole as opposed to getting in the wishbone and letting small back block for small backs- therefore giving Relf a boost in rushing TD's. I think Relf is capable of throwing for 14-15 TD's with the people we have on offense and the OL that's in front of him.
I like our schedule with the OOC games and then games with Auburn, Georgia, Arkansas, Mississippi and Kentucky and their suspect secondary's.
LSU has a suspect run D

<span style="text-decoration:underline">However, there is no guarantee that we will tailor the offense this way</span>. With the influence of Hud and Koenning, we may do it a little differently. So, while I do have full confidence in my prediction- I don't have full confidence in how we will run the offense until I see it Saturday."



and we didnt run our offense that way. We lined up in the I and gave it to Ballard on the Goalline- not out of the shotgun with Ralph. Easily cost him 7-8 TD's

I said he was capable of throwing for 14-15- he is at 10 with a bowl game left- hopefully he throws for a couple and ends up close to that

Saying 27-30 was realistic may have been a little sheepish, but I did think we would run our goalline offense differently when I made the statement. Kudos to Ballard for scoring 5 more TD's than Dixon did last season and being reliable in the red zone

and said that you have full confidence in it too.

edit to add:

It's kind of like saying "I predict us to win 8 games next year. But if the coaches don't make the right calls, I predict that it will be less than 8."

Coach is never wrong. Just ask him. He will be the first to tell you, followed closely by Kenny Powers. In case you miss it, Coach will reiterate it for you at least a dozen times per post and start 34 new threads to tell you again in a different sentence structure.
