The official fair weather Matt Doherty fan thread

by **Mitch McConnell** » Tue Feb 15, 2011 3:01 pm

I was a big fan of his during that 5-game winning streak. Thought he was pressing the right buttons.

Now that SMU has lost one in a row, I think it's time we start re-thinking the buyout clause and making a change.

J/K :wink:

Yeah. All of a sudden I'm second guessing renewing my tix after this season.

Take it easy fellas. it was a loss to the number one team in our division. We need help on the road but Doh has built a team that is finally playing well. Have faith.

Clearly, sarcasm is lost on you. I guess I have to put a smiley face at the end of my sentence for you to understand its a joke.

Jury will remain out until the whole season and particularly the C-USA schedule is completed including post season play. We have four years where the whole body of work is totally unacceptable and it remains to be seen if this year is actually a transition year in every respect.

I am getting used to the little smiley faces and jk's, etc.

ummmm, no. The jury is in on this season and it was an unadulterated success given the ineligibles. Add in the transfers and next years class, and there is really nothing to discuss, unless you don't like incredibly efficient systems. This current direction & execution has nothing to do w/what happened two or three years ago. Also, his first year and last year weren't really 'totally unacceptable' by SMU terms. They sorta fit the program profile. Its the future that's bright.

I agree with George S Patton, Jr, err Mitch McConnell that Doh scares the Hades out of me.

We were the hottest team in CUSA until Doh blew a huge lead against a team where border security is a bigger issue than scholarship security. That and we now play Houston, a team that totally dominated us at home, will undoubtedly dominate us once again. Add to the prospects of kids that simple ride the pine for a year and contribute nothing (though most think these bench warmers will miraculously turn us into contenders) and it is a recipe for disaster.

Damnit, Patton's panic thread has spread like a virus to the b-ball forum.

When he started the panic thread in football, we started losing.

OK, I guess we don't need to fire up the fire Doherty talk since they won.
