Don't recall saying I wanted TM fired. Can you show me where I said that?

Well, your original post made it sound like you were angry at Eichorst for not firing Miles immediately after the season.

I'm not happy with SE in how he has handled all of this, starting from last year. His poor leadership has added to what we are now experiencing.

I'll give you that I don't think he's handled it well.   Of course, had our bb program not been a dumpster fire, his actions (or maybe more appropriately, lack thereof) wouldn't have been necessary.

So did he want to shoot more threes or what?

Great list! The writer should have added Thad Matta's name. Especially if he is indeed dead.

 

Zombie Thad Matta would win a lot of games here.

I guess worrying about how we would handle having 6 guys graduating in two years is no longer a concern.

Not to nitpick... but you still have MJ listed for next year.  So your saying there's still a chance!?!?

That's because I accidentally removed Watson instead

Oh the times we live in.  Transfers are so common that I missed our best PG in years on the scholarship breakdown and didn't even realize it.

Hope it wasn't an omen of things to come

I've exhausted most of my Netflix reserve, so this drama is filling a hole for me right now.

At least you only have to get through the weekdays. I hear Miles will get fired this weekend. Or the next one. Or the one after that.........

I'm overwhelmed by the sheer volume of shows being produced now. I totally f**ked up not becoming a scriptwriter years ago because "the opportunities to succeed were so rare". Jesus, seems like anyone who can wield a pen without incurring an injury can get something on the air now.

 

Next time McKewon's around, someone needs to tell him to develop a series about a Nebraskan little league team made up of suspended 5th graders who learn about life and love while committing an error an inning. Or something like that. Someone will pick it up. Actually, I'd probably watch that.

I think I know a coach who would love to star in that series, tcp. Of course Sam would have to change it into a sixth grade girls basketball team.

Roll it back about a month...

When a small gaggle of writers circling his locker asked about the news that Eichorst wanted Miles back, Jacobson countered with this:

“I think it’s huge to have continuity. I think everybody has to be on the same page. I think that’s what the best programs have. I think that’s what winning programs have. I think that’s how you get to the NCAA Tournament … If you’re not on the same page, it’s really hard to be right and to go into a forward direction.”

At some point in the last 30-plus days, Jacobson told continuity to get bent and ditched the train.

Did he jump? Or was he pushed?

“I want Coach Miles to be our coach,” Jacobson had said in D.C. “And I think he’s a great guy. He’s the one that recruited me, so I’m excited for him to be here. And I think we’re doing the right things, I really do … I’m excited to be back and I know we’ve got guys that are going to work as hard as ever.

“And I think we’re going to have more — I don’t know, maybe just more of a bond because we realize, ‘OK, you’ve got to put the work in,’ and things like that, next year. I think we’ll be more of a brotherhood, if you will.”

 

What the hell happened between then and now???

I forgot about that until today!  I remember reading about Jacobson's strong words after the Big 10 tourney.  Makes you wonder if he didn't like what he heard for his role in the coming years.  Just crazy all around!  Ed and Jacobson were two guys that I didn't think would transfer.  Just goes to show how much we all really know or "don't know" about what goes on behind those closed doors.

I'm pretty sure someone is concealing an evil clone of Jacobson somewhere.

FYI - you show Jeriah Horne transferring back for a senior season in 2019-20.  And I don't think there's any possible way of that happening!
