Losing with Integrity is still Losing...
What about saying that you're going to win/lose with integrity and then not doing the integrity part...and you just lose.
That turns into losing with no integrity, which is what Mac has done while here.
When Craig Brackins looks at you and says, "Coach, no one wants to play for you..."
Dendy would be nuts to leave. Which means he probably will the way this is going. Other than JVB he will be the only guy we have down low and JVB has a perimeter game anyway. Probably have to go with 4 guards a lot.
I love this argument. There are a ton of terrible teams that Dendy could play for. We're just one of them.
Why would he leave???? Maybe he wants to win. Maybe he knows he can be better when surrounded with better than high school talent.
A lot of people on these boards are complete idiots.
We will be lucky to win 10 games next season with only 1 big man returning. JVB plays like he is 6-0.

And this doesn't even include all of the players that left when Mac arrived.Disappointment doesn't even begin to describe my feelings now. It's just getting very old now. I have never said this before today, but right now Mac has to go. Simply ridiculous.

21 players have committed to playing for ISU since 2006. 14 have been dismissed, transferred, or quit (except Craig, who left early for the NBA). I don't know about you, but a 33% success rate at KEEPING players is enough to get a coach fired.

This Hamilton one is odd. He really developed a lot here. ISU was his only "BCS" offer. He started as a Soph, got a ton of playing time. That isn't the recipe that normally would lead one to believe he hates the coach, although nothing about ISU basketball is normal anymore. Would love to know what really happened, maybe he really is homesick. Whatever, either way it really sucks.
I don't like to say this because I like Mac and wanted him to win here, but I think this is the final straw. If there was any chance at all of being decent next year, we needed Ham. Without him (and Gilstrap and Brackins), we're in complete rebuild mode. If JP can find a way to come up with the money for the buyout, we have absolutely nothing to lose by firing Mac and taking a chance on a new coach. Expectations for next season are pretty much 0 now with or without Mac, so we might was well try someone new.
I hope Mac decides to resign on his own. That would be the best move for our program.
