Re: Time for a change.

I believe coaches deserve 5 years unless it’s an absolute disaster.

While this has been pretty bad, there is a lot coming back.

Give him 1 more year and if it’s bad, make a change.

Re: Time for a change.

I do not know what the answer is but Wright does not seem to be getting it done. Another Coach Mo isnt coming through Western's door, and I really hope it didnt come down to 20-30k as the reason he departed. There will be plenty of quality assistants that would not take this job in fear that it woul...

Re: WIU - Week 11

We are not well coached. There is plenty of talent on this team to be an above .500 ball club. This team getting last should be one of the low points in WIU basketball history. All of those over what? 20 - 30 grand? This is why WIU will never be anything more than an afterthought in college hoops.

This team won't beat anyone with quality size.

We lack it.

Re: WIU - Week 4

Chapman.

And you realize our last coach left to make more money right?

My point is we have 5 guys who have separated themselves from the rest based on positions.

Those are the guys that need to be on the floor to win a title.

Re: WIU - Week 4

Tate, Crawford, Garret, jabari, and JC need to play about 96 minutes in 3 days in SD... At the end of the day that's what needs To go down for a title... The rest of the guys are minor pieces .

Re: Western at Creighton

I was not shocked by this result and did not watch the game and think we played all that bad. Creighton was just far too big. I think 8-3 is the most realistic goal I don't see us beating Loyola at Loyola they are a really good team. At Chicago State will be tough (ask U of I about them) but I think...

Re: Weak slate of home opponents

The schedule is fine. It's great actually. You have 3 buy games and we already stole one. You even that out with the max of 3 non d1 schools... If we finish over .500 we can go to a postseason. That should be the goals. Buy 3 games steal 3 games and be over ,500 in the rest. Everything is fine. And ...

Re: Early Season Review/Preview

I think this group has a chance to be very formidable. I'll go with a prediction of 8-3 non conference and 8-8 in conference. for a 16-11 record going into the conference tournament. That would be enough for this team to qualify for some kind of postseason for the 3rd time in 5 years. And definitely...
