HEY! Don't muddy this up with facts!

You are right... But sometimes we all need to take a step back and see if there's an underlying issue. 8/10 times it's due to playing time...1/10 times displinary .... Could the rest ever be on the coach?

I'll take one out of ten.

[JVShocker]

So you were expecting 4 (5) transfers after the season and were ok with that?

Not to be a smart ass, but I was expecting 8. One of the 8 has made a public declaration they are staying put. Thank you unnamed player. LOL. The other one has said nothing

[another shocker]

so, half the team has transferred. very rare, indeed. next year should be interesting. maybe a power forward will appear for the shockers.. move 'em up the aac ladder.

So we are above average!!

Sweet.

Do you think that could be a part of Marshall's problem? In his mind he is bigger and more important than the program?

Didn't say it was Marshall's ego that was the problem. But I don't believe he would let players decide how he runs the team.

Not to be a smart ass either, but the Mrs. and I had 5 on our transfer list. Unfortunately, JB and Noah weren’t on our list, so we're anticipating 1 additional transfer after today. When coach Marshall said he was at the end of his rope, we had the feeling there would be major changes following the season. The ‘shock’ was how quickly the announcements were made.

Insert ‘shocked’ monkey meme here...

It ain't PT when all the point guards leave.

[WuShock Reaper]

I thought there would be three transfers, and so far, one of mine is not among the six who have declared to date.

[BAShocker]

If there was a “division” within the team, and certain players couldn’t get along, and assuming it’s safe to say that those players have left...I have one question:

What do those guys have against Mitguard?

[Topshock]

Some have mentioned they are worried GM might leave to.

Unless he is willing to take a pay cu,t and we know he isn't, I would give that 0% chance. No one that is willing to pay more than we are is going to hire him right now.

As a longtime supporter of GM, I have to say his rope is getting very short with me.

2020 will be much higher than 2019. With the new rule that 1st time transfers can play immediately it takes away the barrier that was there is the past. In the end it will hurt players in my opinion. They will not learn to gut through and overcome tough situations. Many will not be successful with their new team and will wish they had stayed. I'm talking about all teams not just ours.

spin

If what Kennedy’s saying is considered spin then what’s being said by some on Shockernet is a merry go round sped up to 100 RPM.

It is Mike Kennedy’s job to spin. And that is fine. I like him. It’s also fine for people to call it what it is. Nobody is surprised by his response to recent events.
