SMU Basketball is one big pile of excuses constantly spewed by the leader. It is pathetic I just want it to end now so I can get back to being a fan again.
LA,
How excited are you about the Mavericks?
If SMU retains jank, will that impact how much you support the team next year?
The Mavs have been down for awhile, I'm sure that helped us with some casual fans in Dallas. Going forward, maybe not as much.
I’ve never been a fan of Donnie. His history of drafting since taking over in the mid 2000s is awful and he has never been able to land a big fish free agent in almost 15 years. Luka is really good, and has the potential to be great but Donnie could have gotten him without giving up next year’s first. I’m not sold on KP though. Donnie will have a lot of cap money this off-season so we will see. If we had a better GM I’d be more optimistic.
As for Jank, evidence shows he is not major college b-ball head coach. I think Miller and company know that. Outside of the very small group of Jank loyalist, I believe everyone knows a change needs to be made next month. But I have no clue if that will happen. This is a very dangerous time for the program. We have to get this right. To answer your question, I will always support the program and our players. Watching the team play right now is very difficult because I know losing is the best thing for the future. We are in the worst position to be in as a fan. It sucks.
