I am so pissed every time I view the trophy case and don’t see an 11th place trophy for the last 3 years! Yankee, can you spearhead a movement to correct that for us!!!!!

Reminder of what we thought about Parker. Now he has a real head coach. I don't see any difference in Parker's play under Dunne that I saw under Maker, what do you see that I don't. UH....they are winning ,how about that . and I think Dunne has had more of a hand in Parker trying to dish off more ..3.8 assists per game(career high ) .Parker is the real deal ..

Judging what Maker did at Williams, he can win when he has talent on his roster, here he had a Div.111 roster playing against Div.1 teams.

It is like Duke on that level basketball wise. But if think maker is still a good coach, ok, you go with that.

So you think Mike Krzyzewski is not a good coach, only gets good players. You just mentioned coach k and maker in the same sentence? But to answer, coach k does have the easiest school to recruit to now that he accepts one and dones. But he can actually coach the talent as well.

Here we go again ,Maker had Hart and Lewis(not d 3) when he came here and he chose to sit some of the other players that weren't "his" as he didn't care about wins that first year .cause he was grooming "his " guys for the future .well he didn't win the first ,second ,third or fourth year .He was a rotten coach .Dunne would have near doubled the wins for all of Makers years ..Let's not mix the seniors with Maker's lack of success ,Maker has to take responsibility for that ..We've tried to blame everyone ..Murray ..the seniors ,,the concession stand but most all the blame for the past 4 years goes to Maker .that's why he's gone .

I had bitched about 3 games this year - Army where we lost not cause of Maker, Dunne, offensive philosophies, defensive plays - we lost because D1 basketball players couldn't make FTs and we crucified them for it (rightfully so), then they blew a 14 point lead with less then 4 min to go and again we butchered the Seniors for choking - and again deservedly so, then the home game agains Brown where they didnt show up and guess what ..... we crucified them again.
We actually celebrated a 4 point win against the 352 RPI team in country, because it was an away game.

I do have a problem calling this group losers, even if it it's nuanced to "as basketball players". They now have a real coach and the results are improving. Now, some are trying to take credit from future wins by saying, "well the maac sucks". What the hell are we doing? Can we have some respect for these kids and the progress they are showing this year? Why preemptively already dismiss upcoming wins?

If Turner, Cubbage, and Jones would have played this year and not the 4 seniors I'm thinking 9-2 maybe 8-3 rather than 5-6.

Most of us had hopes of a 12-13 win season this year and to a lot of us a 8-9 win year was more of a reality with a look to the future ,now all of sudden we should be near undefeated at this juncture ? Can't we be happy with the progress to date ? Keep the faith ,a lot of good games to come i'm sure .

The reaction is what comes from an all too familiar 25 point beatdown at home by a team we were favored to beat. Most of us have turned the corner on the Maker era. Some of the seniors clearly have not.

The negatively is embarrassing. Yall grown ass men trying to dog a young college student athlete. Smh! Parker isn't perfect but he's been a solid student athlete at Marist. Period. Wow.
