I can stomach another season and a half of this. How many 20+ point blowout losses do we need to see?
20 would be progress.

I completely agree, but we don't have a AD that will do anything. Even if Donati were to pull the plug, can we honestly trust him to make the right hire? We are stuck with incompetence within the athletic department.
I do wonder if there is some residual effect here but on the surface it doesn't seem that. It just seems like these players have NO heart. Dixon used to win at Pitt with guys that looked like they ate too many burgers and just got off the court at the local YMCA.Yeah it's time to move on. It's usually a strange/not great move when you cite legal language to keep a wealthy person at a job they don't actually need.
Gotta agree because you can’t fire the players. Embarrassing effort. Quit. Coach has to go and start over. And the VB coach should be just minutes behind him. Zero reason TCU shouldn’t be VERY good in volleyball.
I'm not necessarily defending the guy but what evidence do we have that he couldn't make a good hire?
He has no point guards and no tough guys under the basket. Those were his keys to winning at Pitt. He hasn't adjusted his style of play either; if anything he has regressed since he got a lot of mileage out of TJ's recruits. You can't win consistently with 13 wings and a couple of mediocre centers.I do not think Dixon is a bad coach but his results are certainly a far cry from 10 years ago at Pitt. Irony is he is recruiting better here than ever IMO. He rarely got top level guys at Pitt. He has more stars on this roster than I believe he ever had there.
No, the TCU job is not easy. Every team in the conference has a better basketball tradition than TCU. The Big12 is a buzz saw. My expectations are a team that plays hard and competes every night. Also I expect an upwards trajectory in the program. We've just seen 1 half of decent basketball out of the last 6, and even in that one the offense was horrible. Tonight it seemed that most of our team checked out from start, which is unacceptable.The tcu job should be easy. Amazing facilities, tons of nearby talent, fans who won’t expect much but will still attend when the team is good.
This program has absolutely sucked since they went to Hawaii couple years ago.
I agree with you on all accounts. I said easy because we don’t demand sweet 16s every year. Heck,’just making the tourney for two seasons in a row would make the coach a legend here... and you don’t even need to go .500 in conference to make the tourney!No, the TCU job is not easy.

it is going to be very important for all us of here that they respond hard next Wednesday. I believe that is our next game.Even though our record wasn't great under Trent Johnson, at least you could tell the guys were playing hard, we just didn't have the players or depth. What I have seen the last 3 games has been quit and a total lack of effort.
you can stomach this? Perhaps you meant can't!I can stomach another season and a half of this. How many 20+ point blowout losses do we need to see?
Yeah, it will make a run in the morning. Twice a day, once up, once back. You could drop him off in Ardmore or Marietta. Well, it doesn't stop in Marietta, just open the door and roll him out!There's a train from Norman to Fort Worth I believe. If trains are still being used these days to carry humans.
