  • For 15 minutes, we were hanging in there with a highly ranked and talented team. Our offense and shooting were the best we have shown all year for 15 minutes. Never seen Paul Mills so excited or animated for a moment. Hark!!! Was that some zone I witnessed on our Shocker D? What? Not many teams from here will rain in 3s quite like today me hopes.

    The Shockers played hard and I saw some encouraging things that I hope start developing more asap. Go Shocks!!!

          Maybe they played hard in the first half.

          • Yes, mostly the first half. I did see some diving on the floor this game which was good. We need to get more 50-50 possessions. Was it cold out there in your truck watching the hustle or lack of? Get busy recruiting Pin!

                I only watched the second half. Didn't play hard.

                • I watched Memphis at halftime and they hit maybe 4 out of 10 3's at best. Crazy how well they shot the 3 during the game. As a team they were 35% 3 point shooters on the season.
                  Colby is good offensively but his defense was really bad. He left Jaykwon wide open time after time.
                  That was a really fun first half and an awful 2nd half.
                  Cortes had his best game as a Shocker. I think he's getting there. 4assists and 2 turnovers is much better. I think he is a decent 3pt shooter, 48% last year.
                  Pohto is really struggling.
                  I hope we can get some things fixed but I am losing hope fast.

                    The $108,000 monthly payments to Isaac Brown end in April 2026.

                    Mills' contract ends on June 30, 2028. If the contract is terminated before the end of year 3 (March 2026), he's owed the full amount of his contract. If after year 3, he's owed 75% of the remainder.

                    This is all to say there's probably nothing that will be done even if we still suck next season, unless someone drops a pretty serious bag off at the WSU athletic department.

                    After year 3, Brown's payments are nearing completion, and we'll only have about 7 months left on Marshall's.
                    for wsu, it sounds like "back to the future", back to the 90's, as another poster here said. NOOOO.. how could that happen?

                    play unselfish offense, and intense defense. that's the task. light a fire under them at halftime, like every good coach worth his salt uses halftimes for.

                        According to this, we won’t have contract relief until AFTER Season 4. If a change is made at the end of Season 3 (with no earned extension), Coach will get 100% of remaining contract. After Season 4, buyout drops to 75% of owed contract.

                        So, unless the wheels absolutely fall off in next two seasons, I would guess that HCPM gets three more seasons to get things fixed.

                        EDIT: Maybe this needs to go into the other thread, but it seems like someone mentioned contract details in the thread, so I put it here.

                          • It's embarrassing that we're talking about firing a coach halfway through his first season. It makes our fan base look horrible.

                              You need to watch all the game Pin or we will accuse you of not watching hard..

                              So when players don't play hard, then what? What would you do if coaching?

                                The play on the court is doing plenty to make us look horrible
