I am with you . I saw that post and you are correct. Jones seems to like pulling Harry when he gets some type of rhythm . It's almost like Jones is trying to take Harry's confidence away . Glad I switched off and to confirm Jones has succeeded in crushing Harry’s confidence. For his sake I hope he sits out the next few games. I feel your pain but Harry needs to play . I don't think that Harry's confidence is crushed. I think Harry is bigger then that and will give 100% when his number is called . Harry is a baller hopefully Jones will see the light and start coaching and stop this Dog Bollix .

Have not had the opportunity to watch a game. It is disappointing that the momentum from last year seems to be lost. What seems to be the biggest issue? Have opponents caught on to our style of play and we have no made adjustments? Lack of chemistry? Offense flat? No Piss Poor Coaching for lack of better words .

Only reason he got good minutes against Ohio State was Web got 2 quick fouls. Otherwise it would have been another bit part night. Need the link to the transfer portal btw.

Harry wont be the last player to seek the transfer portal. Earl Hilton needs to step in now and help Jones figure this thing out before he loses half his roster.
Players know when a coaching staff is not competent and they will quickly leave. Just look at what happened with Patrick Ewing at Georgetown. Nice guy but couldn't coach himself out of a wet paper bag.

Lol man its OOC. Just need to focus on winning the MEAC and getting better LOL! Win the MEAC LOL! Bad execution ain’t gonna win the MEAC. You think these loses are against lock-down defensive pressure. Ever heard the term “self-check”, that’s our offense! We were 4-11 last year in Out of conference last year and we ended up just fine

We were 4-11 last year in Out of conference last year and we ended up just fine That’s the problem, we are just fine as a HBCU basketball program. We are moving into a different cypher and it appears we made the wrong leadership decision for that. Match this play to the talk that was given before the long contract was signed. Promises made! It appears our leadership drank the coolaide again, they should know better, I want blame Jones he is who he is maybe he will evolve when all he has to do is win the BSC

I've never been a part of any organization where the goal is not to win every game.
This is not excellence, this statement reminds me of SWAC and MEAC mentality...as long as i beat other black schools im happy. The tallest midget in a world of giants.
This is not what Aggies do

Can't wait to see how relaxed you'll be when we're at the bottom of the Big South next year playing a bullisht brand of basketball.

Perhaps us fans have some highly inflated expectations based off of numbers. We have MEAC talent and MEAC talent is routinely ranked at the bottom of Division 1. And we just signed a top-100 recruiting class ahead of our first Big South season.

I'm so sick and damn tired about us talking about who we recruited......Dude, did you watch the game last night? Longwood ain't no worldbeaters. We played an awful brand of basketball. We have a horrific half court offense, yet we're supposed to have the best PG (by numbers) in our school's history. What do you think is gonna happen in the Big South next year with shaky point guard play? Top talent, top smalent......Howard was getting their asses whipped BEFORE Makur got hurt. Oh, but he was sooooooooooo talented.
Mofo's better learn how to coach and put their players in positions to be successful.
Did anyone see how beautifully winless Longwood was running their offensive sets on us? They were whipping the ball around.....inside, outside.....they had us running around like chickens with our heads cut off. Look at the footage.....they ran their offensive sets crisply, and beat the hell out of us doing it.
Longwood ain't UVa or Va Tech. Nevertheless, you're still supposed to handle your business and put quality play out on the floor.
You can't excuse an inferior brand of basketball. A&T played that in spades last night. I ain't excusing that at all; if I didn't excuse it with Joyner or Alexander or Eaves or Hunter, I'm not going to make an exception for Jones.....

I saw a game where our guards couldn’t block out for rebounds and couldn’t shot the 3 ball effectively.
Our PG is in a situation where defenses sag on him and clog the paint.

Run Jones's scheme.....what scheme? Look, Jones has gotta formulate a scheme around what he has.....not what he wishes. I didn't see a talent deficiency on TV tonight......I see a preparation deficiency. His actual scheme is to run out , penetrate, and shoot within the first 12 seconds of the shot clock. He described it in pre-season interviews.
