  1. tennessee fans were calling for barnes’s head this february, just like they do every february, because just like texas fans, they’re a bunch of entitled, front-running, know-nothing, sunshine-pumping-yet-never-happy bunch of retards who both hate all of the coaches and players and yet somehow seem to expect/demand that the team win 25 games every year. congratulations, you’re all fucking stupid.
  2. who said he was?
  3. i’m not even talking about miller, im talking about his assistant hires. y’all act like this is some brand new idea or something. we’ve got i-don’t-know-how-many years of empirical evidence across all sports worldwide that shows that bringing assistant coaches from a lower level to a higher level doesn’t work as consistently/effectively as hiring assistants with top flight experience, and you guys are incensed that i’m saying as much. if the exact same thing were happening at a&m and i said, “bucky whatshisname bringing all of his buddies with him to a&m isn’t gonna work out” you’d all pos rep me. but when i say it about the Texas Coach you’re all up in arms about it. again: it’s dumb. you’re only upset because im not saying what you want to hear, and you’re mad at me for it.
  4. never said they have to be brand new acquaintances, but there’s a difference in bringing along your buddies when they’ve coached in the national title game or routinely landed all-league talent as recruiters, and bringing along your buddies whose cv’s don’t show them to be proven top flight assistants.
  5. yes he did, and i’m not referring to maligi when i talk about the guys who miller is bringing from his time at xavier. and look, i sweatergawd i don’t understand why this is such a hot button topic every time. i don’t think i proclaimed miller a failure, i don’t think that ive said that he sucks, or that we’re doomed- ive simply said (in so many words) that im not a huge fan of bringing along assistants with lesser backgrounds when you’re getting hired at a job that’s above the level of anything they’ve done before. that’s it. i truly have no idea why that take is such a huge deal to so many people.
  6. i’m gonna use this post to point out that i was met with this exact same reaction when i criticized shaka for bringing david cason, mike morrell, jai lucas, etc in as assistants. instead of going and getting the best guys available he brought in all his buddies who he was comfortable with and kids with no experience. guess what? they weren’t on the level needed to compete in the big xii. now i see sean miller doing the same thing as he enters the SEC, and i don’t think it’s a great move. im allowed to think that. but of course, once again the entire thread is melting down because someone didn’t mindlessly slurp every single move made by the new coach. shit is dumb.
  7. the ones who stopped winning at a high level after paying players was legalized. obviously. self won a title a few years ago, and pitino was just named the NCOY. what makes you think that those guys are comparable to sean miller?
  8. immamac has banned me for nothing more times than i can count, and bob hates my guts more than all of you combined. you are *high* if you think that either one of them would ever go out of their way to give me special treatment (unless it’s negative special treatment). motown got banned by bob four times because motown kept breaking the rules. that has absolutely nothing to do with me requesting some safe space. i did not reach out to bob because of motown, bob reached out to me because of motown. it takes a lot to get banned around here (for most), and of all the posters on this entire site i’m the last one with the power to make either of those mods do anything.
  9. you say this as if you haven’t been actively whining about every single post that isn’t 100% sunshine pumping. you only want to see positive, optimistic posts in this thread. it’s dumb, the number of times y’all need to be reminded that the very reason shaggy was formed was to get away from exactly that. seriously, basically every single other UT forum on the internet works that way. reddit, hornfans, 24/7, they all cater to people who can’t handle any criticism of the teams, players, and coaches. this is the one, single one that doesn’t. if you’re just going to clutter the thread with whiny posts about people being critical of players and coaches then just go to any other forum out there and enjoy yourself in your bubble. stop spending time here being all proud of yourself for whining about actual basketball discussion taking place.
  10. LOL. based on what, exactly? i would love to hear you expound on this. the very reason that so many of you don’t like me is because i am critical of your favorite team or your favorite coach (or tv show) and you can’t handle it. that’s been the dynamic here for 20 years. i give an opinion that’s against the grain and y’all cry about it. rinse and repeat. i have never been the one to need a safe space from dissenting opinions, im the guy giving the dissenting opinions. “i don’t like derka, therefore everything that’s negative applies to him.” lol okie dokie.
  11. so weird how the former president supposedly got shot in an assassination attempt and then we just never talked about it again.
  12. 🙄🙄🙄 fucking insecure, wanna-be dictator. at least everyone in the comments is just dragging him.
  13. and you’ll find a way to bitch about any post that isn’t 100% sunshine pumping bullshit. at least my posts are about the actual thread topic. your whiny bullshit only serves to derail the thread and adds nothing. seriously- this site isn’t for you. www.hornfans.com. go, with everyone’s blessing.
  14. are you excited by this hire? do you have even one single reason to think this is a good hire? you guys do this every single time, and you never learn. when i say “shaka sucks”, you guys get mad about it for years on end. when i say, “beard is the man, he’s going to do awesome at Texas” y’all are all, “hell yeah, i know that’s right!!!” you get upset every time i don’t slurp every single move that Texas makes. you can’t handle anything that isn’t blind optimism. you guys are built for hornfans. dead serious: go start a safe space thread if that’s what you want so badly. this thread is not your safe space.
  15. well i hate to be that guy again, but im not sure how else im supposed to react: what exactly did this guy do for IU? that program has been terrible, and hiring from them certainly doesn’t scream “slam dunk hire”. sounds like more of miller bringing along his friends from his previous coaching gigs. not what i want to see. so far miller is way more in line with shaka in terms of hiring than he is with beard. not a fan.
  16. yeah, drew is acting like cc got a little rookie hazing, paid her dues, and now everyone in the league respects her. wrong. they hated her and mistreated her out of sheer pettiness and jealousy, and that hasn’t gone anywhere for most of them. this idea that her peers only dislike her “racist fans” is a total red herring.
  17. if his adjD at Texas is anything like it has been over the last 7 years then we’re going to have to go full alabama on offense to compete for league titles and top 4 seeds. this is the thread where we talk about the head coach, not the safe space where we only sunshine pump and fellate the new coach. don’t like it? move on to hornfans.
  18. i’m pleased with the transfer business so far, but i can’t help but feel like i’m more excited that our coach isn’t RT than i am that it is miller. i mean that’s the guy we’re hiring. nothing he did before then really matters, as a)it was forever ago, b)he was cheating, and c)he hasn’t done anything notable since everyone else was allowed to pay players. i’m sure the offense will be better (very low bar), but miller’s defensive numbers kinda suck, and frankly his offensive numbers generally aren’t anything to write home about either. sigh. this really is such an underwhelming hire. we’ll be better, but i seriously doubt we end up being regularly competitive in this league under sean miller.
  19. no it isn’t. you have no idea what you’re talking about. again, her “racist asshole fans” didn’t even exist until after cc became the target of a bunch of physical and verbal attacks by black women. the racist assholes you’re referring to didn’t even have the wnba on their radar until after the fact.
  20. caitlyn clark didn’t have any racist asshole fans until after the black coalition in the wnba started attacking her verbally and physically on a daily basis, so that’s not a valid excuse as to why she was treated that way. the asshole racist cc fans were/are a response to the treatment of cc by (almost exclusively) black players and former players.
  21. washington and capitol hill should be a hunch of hot, sharp, ambitious 40-somethings with degrees from georgetown and harvard, and instead it’s a bunch of hateful retards doing everything they can to own the milquetoast do-nothings while the rest of us get boned. fucking pussy ass democrats. we could use a couple of LBJ’s right about now.
