McD will get another year after tonight's effort.

I'm not lying I was, because the refs were willing k-state back into the game, i seriously think the players were playing for his job, i mean, why didnt we see this effort against A&M, Baylor, OSU, OU ?

A&M 4 point loss, OSU 5 point loss, OU 5 point loss. Do you consider those being blown off the court with no effort? I realize OU is not as good as years past but all of them were rated at one point this season.
 
the freaking topic title? 'mcdermott will get another year for tonight'

I'm happy about tonight's win, but some mcdermott lovers cant resist the chance to try to throw it in the faces of those who think he's failed here, instead of just enjoying the win themselves.

Maybe our reading comprehension is different - the thread title said nothing about success. And the thread title is wrong, nothing changes after tonight.

no, if he was definately coming back, he should have announced he was 100% behind him - pretty much the opposite of what he did for McCarney.

Really? There are at least 5 other threads that have mentioned Monday's presser that is going to be about this very topic.
 
Theres a big difference between being happy about the win, and thinking that mcdermott's been successful this season. 2 separate things. There were plenty of people when we started losing saying 'lets see how the whole season plays out and not judge him on one game'... i believe that would apply to this game as well.

Yeah. I am happy for the team, but I still think McD needs to go. We are the number 11 seed in the tourney. This game didn't change anything about that.

If it takes the apparent threat of the coach losing his job to inspire his team to play like this, then we are in trouble.

Very happy for the team and the true die-hard fans. As for the McD apologists, whatever. 18-46.
 
we're 11th by tiebreaker.


Correct, but we finished the season tied for 9th place. Look, I'm not saying I'm proud of our 9th place finish. I'm just saying to all of the people piling on McDermott that they should at least be fair when they rag on him. However, some people are so overly zeolous in their desire to get rid of McDermott that they don't let the facts get in their way.

For the love of God man, if even this can't allow you to put the torches and pitchforks away for one night, nothing will.

Great win. Good job. Proud of the team.

Even better knowing there were ISU fans rooting for KSU tonight. Missed out on a good moment for Cyclone basketball.

I think everybody is pretty ecstatic with the win. That doesn't discount the original question (or statement) of this thread. We finished 11th in the conference and haven't sniffed a winning conference record in four years, so its understandable that one upset over a top 25 team in four years doesn't quite get people on the McD bandwagon.
 
I am not for it, but if he comes back the only way I will accept him as legitimate is in an Adidas mock turtleneck and some attitude.


Like a Larry E Addidas turtleneck? LOL Our Cyclone Club Board wore red ones with ISU logos added when Larry spoke at our Summer banquet....... oh I miss those outings Thanks Mr Pollard.
 
gmac must feel the relief similar to I feel after i take a 3 pound dump

Really. Why not 3 weeks ago?
 
Wouldn't that remove doubt from people's minds.

If he says McD's job is safe, there is no question. By being silent there is question, and doubt.

If he needs to affirm that he's supporting Mac, it means that there was any doubt in the first place about it.
 
I don't think 1 game is enough to make up for some horrible other ones, just like I don't think 1 very embarassing loss would discount several wins.
Let's face it, 95% of us even with 3.2 seconds left figured we would find a way to lose that game.

I think 95% might be a little bit high.
