It is hard to believe that mcdermott has not had a player play three seasons for him. The only player that has been with the program for three seasons is Alex Thompson and he sat out the first season. I thought it was a terrible decision to bring him into the fold.

This team will never excel until we get a two that can create and be quick enough to get his own shot. Plus we need an athletic three. I think we are about the only team with a white two guard.


The best thing that could happen to this program is for Haluska,
Peterson, and Thompson to graduate. None of them have any business playing in the big 12. Diante Garrett is a year away. Brackins is the only legit big 12 starter we have and he is top five player in the league. Garrett will be a legit big 12 guard after one more offseason of improvement.

I am optimistic about Hamilton, Boozer, Eik, and Buckley. I think the all look to be good young players. I think that Boozer should be starting over Peterson in my opionion. Hopefully next season a new comers will be able to help us, we need a suprise starter.

I am frustrated that this team can't dig down deep to beat an average k-state team at home.

I just wanna give the guy 4 years. If next year is the same song and dance, he should be shown the door.

I agree about the addition by subtraction thing that will occur next year with the out-going seniors and incoming guys. We upgrade drastically in talent and athletic ability, two things haunting this team.
 
Over and over I have to remind myself I would give him 3-4 years. Yes I get nervous with the way things look... but hope still holds out. After all I'm a cubs fan too.

Your wish has been granted. You have 2 more wishes left.

Sincerely,

Mr. Genie
 
For my second wish, i wish brackins would stay for four years, but i would settle for three.

Race has nothing to do with it. Larry Bird, Steve Nash, John Stockton, Jeff Hornacek, Dirk Nowitzki, Detlef Shrempf, Steve Kerr, Jerry West, Bill Walton, John Paxton, Luke Longley come to mind to name a few. I know not all of them are guards, but just making a point.

Did you really just include Luc Longley in the same sentence with Larry Bird, Jerry West, Bill Walton and John Stockton?

Cmon.

it is very rare to have great white two guards hoiberg and hornacek are a dime a dozen. How about willie warren, i would take a guy with 3/4 of his ablility. Its not about race but it is at the same time. I want a Willoughby(sp.)
 
Hornacek and Kerr are the only two guards that you listed. Hornacek is the only starter at the 2 position that you listed.
 
The problem isn't that the players are white...it's that they are senior walkons. If we are to believe our sheriff about this being Mac's first year, and all of the Mac-ites who say we are building a foundation, then our walkon seniors should not be sniffing the court. Unless we are either so far behind, or have so many injured or foul proned freshman and sophmores that we cannot field a five man team........and then maybe. The future isn't Peterson, Haluska or Thompson. And if Mac feels some devotion to them because they have stuck it out when so many left........can him on the spot. We aren't paying him for warm fuzzies!

Will give him next year to see what can be done.

If I HAD to judge him this far, period?

Epic fail comes to mind.
