this time around, it seem like when he was here under the McDermott era we had better guard play than this year......

We may not be able to afford to fire McDermott. But there are no contractual barriers preventing us from getting him to clean up us assistant coaching staff. If Pollard doesn't at LEAST do that at the end of this season, there will be hell to pay as far as I am concerned.

And let go of who? Giving up Prioleau for Robinson was a good thing.

How the hell are you still here? You've even admitted to being a Hawk yet you're still allowed to post negative ISU threads.

Why don't you move to Russia?

I don't know if they are the problem.

Transcript from Mac's Introduction as Coach

Anyone have a transcript of when Mac was hired and what he laid out in his opening statement as our basketball coach. I want to say he made comments like we will play fundamental basketball, etc. It would be interesting to do some fact checking and see where we are in regards to promises made 4 years in.

He also said they would make the NCAA tourny the next year, because they dont have time to rebuild.

I know he said something about it being fun to beat Iowa.

He was talking about how he was from iowa and this and that. And said "i'm one you". We now know he was talking to the complete losers that were in the building.

Is that what he said? Word for word?

How do you "fact check" an introduction speech made to jazz up the fanbase? And should he have a "do-over" once all the players left during his first few weeks?

I thought McD was a bad hire from the start as I compared him to McCarney. As soon as he said the above statement, he lost any chance he had of me supporting him.

I remind my wife at least once a week how I was against the hire. She remembers that and remembers how I rolled my eyes after his macho statement of beating Iowa.
