How much time should HCIB get to right the ship?

Took bad a drug doesn’t exist that makes our team shoot, pass, and rebound better!

It does exist... It's called practice

It’s clearly not working for IB and the crew.

My primary point is that I think the frustration with IB is 100% understandable and I am surprised Smithson had as much support as he did toward the end of his tenure.

I supported Randy. Some of the crap was a little over blown. Randy recruited my son while he was at butler. My son played pickup ball with the butler players on a regular basis in the summer. The word from players was that he was a tirant but only when they failed to follow team rules. He also demanded dedication.
Basically he expected players to be the same hard working gym rat that he was.
Your probably right though, kids these days can't handle a coach who talks bad to them, even if it's the truth.

Aren’t you in your 80s? Players were getting stoned in the 50’s? Hmmm ok.

You didn't think pot was around until the 60s?
ITs funny how each generation thinks they were the first to discover or engage in some act.
Kind of like " grandma giving a b***job". No way they did that stuff in to 1920's.

Just need a current player to lie and say IB punched them with zero witnesses.

Not the same impact as white coach hitting black player, but worth a try.

That would be a better seller than Viagra.
Excuse me, work to do in my lab.

You’d be a billionaire! I call dibs on royalties since it’s my idea! It’d be like the fictional limitless pill but for basketball players.

Idk in this snowflake day in age I’d think any coach hitting a player would be grounds for termination. But what do I know I was born in the good ol days where a coach could push you and curse at you for doing something completely stupid. Never had a coach punch me but if I did a stupid boneheaded thing then I’d figure its worth it like when my pops used to make me go pick out a twig for a spanking when I did something boneheaded. I wouldn’t tell on the coach. That’s a pu$$y move imo. Now a days parents take away ipads and idk what current coaches do but it sure seems limited these days.

Sarcasm is lost on the stupid

Right... But you were being serious... Under the guise of sarcasm because you know how horrible the idea is.

Glad someone on this board understands humor (looking at you, Stickboy46 )

Nobody on this planet thought he was serious except you.

[1972Shocker]

Also I personally don’t think it’s the team smoking pot that is causing the horrible play. If that was the case then some of our best Marshall teams would have sucked. Yet they played damn good. It ain’t the devils lettuce it’s the coach and piss poor basketball play from our current players that has us sucking right now.

Maybe if 3G had joined in and mellowed out just a little may he would still be here.

Evidently, the players just have the right "medicine" for him.

Would he need to cut that with water too?
