At what point do you stop blaming 18 year old kids and start blaming the adults being paid millions of dollars to motivate them? I thought after last year there were no more excuses, seems like there's a different set of excuses every year and every one of them scapegoats the players (not talented enough, too selfish, effort, etc etc). I’m surprised you don’t realize that a good number in this group do pretty much nothing but blame the adults. There’s certainly room for that, but the main reason not to look at the “18 year old kids” after that horror show seems to be that it would detract from the “blame absolutely everything on Ewing” narrative. There were players on that floor who did not shoot, did not defend, rebounded poorly, and, sadly, quit. Sorry to have to bring attention to that. Do you think if JT2 were coach that would be the case?

For some reason we haven’t been able to land 5 star bigmen.

I’vEwing is not a leader of men. That’s what coaching is about. There is no buy in. There are serious flaws with his style, identity and recruiting. But at the end of the day, he’s not a leader, he doesn’t inspire confidence in anyone. Not the players, alums, or fan base. You are entitled to your opinion. But it’s totally speculative. There is literally nothing that isn’t a guess about leadership. Look at the sheer number of transfers and the atrocious graduate rates. That alone would be a reason to move on. Now throw in the 0-20.

The sports Reed oversees are doing just fine; soccer, lacrosse, cross country, swimming & diving, etc. Basketball reporting line goes straight to the top with a dotted line through RT.

A number of players that have transferred out have done well at their new homes and it’s not that they are playing down a level. We just don’t know how to use players strengths. It’s just one on one on offense which favors a selfish player.

I just don’t see 4 year players any more. Especially, if the freshman don’t get playing time and are recruited over in the portal. Revolving door.

It would be interesting to see Harvard or Yale pull out of the undergraduate rankings and the domino effect to follow.

i feel so bad for the players. they deserve better. this team has enough talent to be top 50. we are light years from that right now I honestly believe that Jay Wright could have this team sniffing the top-30 this season. We have good individual talent on this squad. We play like it’s Kenner and the kids haven’t practiced together.

No excuses this year, we have talent. We have MUCH higher rated players than any of our opponents thus far. Our coach is not a motivator, communicator or strategist. It’s checkers vs. chess out there. That’s why we consistently do less with more.

If you give the freshman no run, they will be gone next year.

This is an abomination, pure and simple. 31-6? 31-6??? Coppin State was terrible, but at least we won. Northwestern was terrible, but this is just way, way worse. What a compete embarrassment. Can't we just fire Ewing now? This really can't go on. Why would anyone pay to watch this? No one is paying to watch
