Every year before the season starts we are optimist about the potential of our teams (all sports) then we play that first game, get punched in the mouth and all of a sudden we don't have a big enough budget, our coaches are under paid, our facilities suck... We just need to be more realistic about our teams. We'll luck up and have a few surprise wins but we ain't pulling any App State miracles. Not in our lifetime!

DSA, I am talking about our program on a whole, not because UNCG beat us. We have not had a consistent winning program since Coach Don Corbett was at the helm.
Coach Corbett did not have a budget as big as the one we have now and he kicked butt. He dominated the MEAC and we also had a football budget.
If the university does not commit to truly upgrading our budget for basketball and if the alumni don't give, then we need to shut the blank up.
We can make all the excuses in the world but we will still remain straddling the fence- division I imitators or division II quality program. Unless we upgrade financially and get quality coaches and players we will always be division I imitators.

No one is saying that UNCG is not a good team , and I'm not tripping just because we lost . And it doesn't matter that these guys haven't played together before ,for most of the game they looked like they had never played organized basketball before in their lives ,major difference .

Frisco we don't have a bonafide division I basketball program even though we eeked out a 20 game and 19 game won lost record the last 2 years. If we were in any other conference we might would win 10 to 12 games. Our program sucks.

Is money really the issue? Does NCCU have more money than us? Do they have better facilities?

And it doesn't matter that these guys haven't played together before ,for most of the game they looked like they had never played organized basketball before in their lives ,major difference . oh but indeed it does matter whether they've played together or not. not only does the coach have to learn how his new players play in real games, but also the players themselves have to learn how their new teammates play in real games. practice speed ain't the same as real game speed. guys have to learn such things as how far to "lead" passes to new teammates, whether they can handle certain "no look" passes or not, whether they need "help defense" or not, who's reliable under pressure and who's not, who can i communicate with by "eye contact", and i could go on and on. this is not "pickup games" on the playground. team "chemistry" means everything in organized ball and it takes time to develop chemistry if guys haven't played together in real games before. so yes it does matter whether guys have played together or not. ..

I can tolerate a number of things but ... anyway, we have a section on the board called "The Firing Squad". We haven't had to post there in years but feel free to go there and post your concerns. You're not the first. bluedeathvalley.proboards.com/thread/12646?page=1&scrollTo=187183

Max I could care less what you can or can't tolerate. You make opinions I don't agree with the majority of the time. I have never told you to go to another site. You are expressing your opinion and I am expressing mine.
Freedom of speech. If you don't like my opinions or anyone else opinion then you need to get off this board and go read, watch tv or relax if possible.
Thank you.

He didn’t tell you get off the site. He was simply suggesting one of the other sections on THIS site. He even provided a link.
