Ken- Thanks and your right as well.
HC game was a heart breaker to everyone but we as fans can't let it break the players, everyone can stop going to games the rest of the year if that is what you want to do to get this coach out. But I think the next game the fans have a role to play show the KIDS/players support, after that you can never show up to a game. But know that the look in the player’s eyes after the HC game was hurt and it does not matter why.
Think of it like this your kid falls and hurts him self and you run over and pick your kid up because as a parent that is what we do, at this moment the next game these kids need someone to pick them up and it does not matter that you don’t like the coach or the manager or the record these are your kids at this moment if your a Marist fan. Because a new coach can come in next week and its going to be a harder job to get these kids back if we don’t pick them up the next home game.
How was that B4d the Marist manager?

Nomar- ok your right I was wrong on that one and I am sorry if I came across wrong and offended you with the few good men thing I am sorry.
But is it ok to say we all dont see the whole picture and maybe B4D the Marist manager is putting sleep pills in the players Gatorade. LOL

Igotyourback- I have not bashed the kids the fact that I watch every game (and get to bitch afterwards) says that we are supporting the kids ..... my thing is adjustments need to be made things are not improving .... so if our coach can't adjust to this team then we have to find someone who will.

Igot... you are preaching to the choir. We all support the Marist mens basketball program. That includes the coach and players. Most of us go to as many games as possible. We support the kids. We want them to do well. I go to just about every game and can say I do not hear boos directed toward the coach or players. Every once and a while I hear someone yell to the coach to put so and so in or to a player hold on to the ball etc but rarely anything negative. We support the team. The ones who do not show up are the fans who live in the area that want to see wins. They will return only when Marist starts winning not because of something said on this forum. Another group that is conspicuous in their absence are the students. There were only a few students at the Lehigh game. That shows the lack of support from the student body which in my view is not a good sign at all. I will always go and support the team regardless how good or bad they are. It's the only game in town!

Wow peta when you are wrong you are wrong ..... almost everyone on this board cares and supports the team or we wouldn't listen, watch, or goto all the games we do. We are fans that doesn't mean we should just bend over and accept it when we think something stinks. If we didn't care we would keep our mouths shut or pretend things are going well or we are heading in the right direction.
You mistake support with unconditional love - I love marist and I will not keep my mouth shut when I see someone or a group embarrass it. And yes right now this team is that.

Petagay, please tell me the last time Marist won the MAAC conference? Last time they went to the NCAA tourney? If we were just here because we supported a winner, etc, there would be noone posting or going to the games. Marist has had a lot of mediocre seasons. That we could deal with. This coach has brought them to the bowels of D1. If you think some criticism/frustration isn't warranted, when is it warranted? And the couple of you that are Martin apologists bring up Brady. If you guys had posted here for the year after he left, he was lambasted for what he did to Marist. However at some point the responsibility moves to the replacement. Please tell me when that falls on coach Martin.

Yeah you would hate playing for me because unlike your end of game speech that would be something like this "its ok guys we will get them next time" mine would be closer to "that is the last game you will ever play where the other team has more energy. We will learn to shoot free throws and we will be in better shape than every other team we play. You will want the ball more then the other guys. Get some rest ladies cuz we are going to start fixing things tomorrow." These are DI players with full rides there is no need to coddle them or protect their feelings. Then I would sit with my staff and look at my players strengths and know that our current offense is not working and change it up - I got one of the top assistants.I will pick his brain more.

How many teams in the Maac other than Siena has won a Maac Champ in the last 3 years? haha .. "NONE" My point is that fans (Marist fans) should be UNDERSTANDING ... not saying to except the current situation but understand the circumstances ... not grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr the whole process .. just saying we know the board is all about opinions .. everyone has one ... thats mine
