Rothstein was spot on, like most of the rest of us. We knew this year was a dumpster fire. 2 out of 3 years with a losing record. Last one before that, 1995-96. Not good…

Muskieman. Good post. Aggressive defensive pressure, Athleticism... give me a break. We finished 332 in the country on defense giving up 80 points a game. The worst defensive team in the country gave up 82 points a game. LOL

2-3 years with Sean, having one of those years. Sean took Travis' players and Souley to the sweet 16, but then flopped the next year. He made up for it the next year, but went out in the NCAA because he was tracking the Texas job. He took two players who would have made X more competitive: Swain and Traore. Traore is a bum, considering we spent money rehabbing him, but that is on Miller.

I hated this season so much, but Pitino deserves a second to show us where he is taking the X program. I hope he has enough NIL and smarts to get us some BE talent and to keep the valuable usable players from this year.
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

Talent upgrades needed asap. We need way more BE caliber starters.

I guess we will see in the next month. I sure hope we have a plan, otherwise, there's going to be alot of empty seats next year.
