Your reading comprehension obviously leaves a lot to be desired as absolutely nobody here wants IB to fail. There are a lot of people who have legit and logical concerns about him and have issues with how the process went. Those have been articulated quite well by many on here and if you're incapable of actually seeing that, it's on you.
Of course no one will openly admit they want HCIB to fail, and a lot of the criticism they have about his ability as a Head coach are probably valid, I just find it odd how short of a leash a lot of posters on here are willing to give him, he took a team that was predicted to be 7th place, during a pandemic and facing all types adversity and won the conference. He loses the 1st game of the tournament now all the sudden he’s not fit for the job? Was Gregg Marshall not fit for the job back when he lost the 1st round of the tournament to vcu and the next year ended up taking us to the final 4? Give this man a chance to prove himself.
Hows my post? send me feedback at 1-800-f$%k-off

Your hate for an AD shouldn’t be so strong to the point where you want HCIB to fail, it’s bad for the program in general. I had to put that out there because I felt no one else would say it.
IB inherited a lot of Marshall’s work. All he had to do was some tweaking to ensure they didn’t finish 7th. Did they do better than I thought? Of course. Would that have happened with or without IB/Marshall? Yah probably. I feel IB never made any adjustments throughout the year or during games. His sub patterns were odd and some players were given abnormally long leashes when they played like absolute ****. There were several repeats of history, sometimes in short spans, where the exact same situations happened and failed.. Cincy and Drake.
There are things to like and not like about the hire. People said that one of the positives was to keep players here. I guess we’ll see how that shakes out. But to act like the guy can’t be critiqued is ridiculous. There are for more questions than answers and people have a right to express that.Deuces Valley.
... No really, deuces.

I supported IB's hiring, and I disagree with those that have criticized it. But we can disagree about something without assuming ill intentions. I have never gotten the impression from anyone critical of IB's hiring that they actually want him to fail."It's amazing to watch Ron slide into that open area, Fred will find him and it's straight cash homie."--HCGM

That is because Marshall reloaded with a CLE. There also was those new frosh of Fred & Ron.
I do look forward to what happens with recruiting this off-season. If HCIB can somehow swing 1 or 2 big recruits, some of the chirping will subside.
