Do any of you have any faith that our Hoyas will get a win?

There is always a chance. A win on Friday would be huge. I hope the guys keep fighting.

Correct, because there is that pesky BET game…

How do we put together 40 mins of consistent basketball? Every now and then we have good spurts and then fall back into long stretches of incredibly disinterested and poor play. End result - blowout. l

Can you legitimately point to a single reason that we should believe this team can beat a single BE team? The greatest chance any team ever has of pulling an upset at any level is getting hot from 3. However that requires said team to actually prioritize shooting 3s, which our team has never done and will probably never do under this regime. So we’re relegated to what? Slowing the game down, playing good d, and hoping to steal a game in the final seconds? Also seems incredibly unlikely given the pace our coach prefers to play at and the utter dumpster fire the defense continues to be. Statistically, the chances of going 0-41 in 2 seasons worth of BE/BET play are so minuscule that it’s hard to believe it could actually happen. But don’t sell our record-setting coach short. I’ve got all the confidence in the world he can pull this one off with his unblemished record of incomprehensible levels of futility.

We will upset someone this year, even with our pitiful coaching staff, and it may even be a top tier BE team not named UConn. That one win could lead to another contract extension for Ewing.

The remaining schedule is daunting, but we should be able to eeeeek out a few wins. What better place to begin than Friday.

More importantly, can the student fan base (such as it is) get a good “FIRE RONNY” chant going? Since no one knows whether he is or isn’t a coach or other official, I think this post is legit.

We aren't beating Xavier. They aren't monsters, but they are a lot better then every team we have played to date. So after we start 0-2 in the Big East we will have a shot against another bottom dweller in Depaul at Depaul. We better win that one or the January 1st game against Butler at home as those are two of our easiest W's of the regular BE season.
The calls for a change will be extremely loud if we start 0-4. For the sake of the children, I hope we don't find ourselves there (and by children, I mean Ronny, not our players).
