Gossip and being a card carrying member of the lynch mob is fun. Doesn't matter. Jank will be judged on whether he makes the Dance or not this season. That is the standard. No, doesn't look good, but not going to waste time tearing down a good man. It's not right and it doesn't help the current team or the program.

Winning is fun too.

And that NCAA horse has left the barn.

This team is going to win four games in four days in the floor we just got blown out on by an average team?

Well ok.

I’m sure there are other nice guys who can coach and recruit better than our current nice guy.

Before the houston game I posted (in another topic) that we would be lucky to win 1 out of the next six. So far we are 0-2 and things look worse than I thought.

Weren’t you saying the exact same thing about June Jones several years ago?

The drop off in talent on this team compared to two years ago is astounding...and judging by our 2019 recruiting class, help is not on the way. Jank has been completely asleep at the wheel, squandered all of the positive momentum from the LB days, and needs to be fired after this season.

Yes.

Jank will be judged on whether he makes the Dance or not this season????? Dude, what... how did you type that?

I will be judging my 2019 on whether or not I begin dating Margot Robie as my mistress. Results TBD.

Take a big spoonful of reality and just be objective. Jank ain't a good HC and it is what it is.

I bet if you walked in and fired Jank right now, he would feel relief.

This. In fact, it's one of the few logical explanations for what he's doing both on the trail and in these interviews.

I am merely relaying the standard set at the beginning of this season by those who actually make the decisions. It’s a good standard. And, as I clearly stated above, it does not look good for Jank right now.
