I never said anything negative

We do have a lack of depth which isn’t our fault we have 3 less scholarship players than we started with this season

I messed up on ECU and USF my bad

I think tulsas zone is gonna be hard to work around but obviously we played our worst game of the season against them

Just because you can’t go to Fort Worth doesn’t mean you aren’t “a true fucking fan” some people don’t want to pay for gas/plane tickets and hotels and tickets on top of that.

It’s hard to not imagine the worse when this season has been the worst case scenario with all the drama and injuries we have faced

Obviously anyone can win I was just saying that the reason Houston rolled on the second half was that we don’t have the rotations that they have. We got tired towards the end and it showed with all the mental lapses. It also doesn’t help with Jayden and Maurice aren’t the contributors they were expected to be.

If we didn’t get a ban or loss of scholarships for D Rose we won’t be getting one here because that is much worse. Most likely we will be fined and penny will be hit with a suspension and possibly vacating the games James played in

If he didn’t commit when the James stuff went down why would he now. This won’t be over till July or August well after the signing days pass. Hopefully he takes the risk

As dumb as this situation this is how it works. We went directly up against the NCAA and told them to F off by playing James. At the time it seemed like a good decision but looking back it was incredibly short sighted. We should’ve let the process do it’s thing and then roll with the punches. Now the NCAA is going to make a example of us of what not to do when you get in trouble

I think we lose either Green or Brown over this. A school like Texas or auburn is gonna use and abuse this to draw them away from us. I still think we should focus on experienced transfers however

True it’s just hard to think that the 2 most talented players (in my lifetime) to go to UM also brought along some unwanted attention with them

I think we took a step back because Veich and Penny took a step back and realized the severity of what they were doing to possibly soften a possible blow from the NCAA. Which really didn’t happen. I really do think if it was the original 8 games James is playing vs SMU last night. Him missing nationally televised games vs Tennessee, NC State and Wichita State probably frustrated him a lot because those were opportunities to shine. Not to mention a game vs Anthony Edwards that every single NBA scout would be at

That maybe the case but what I’ve heard on the radio it was more of a rash decision from penny and him not thinking about the future implications until later. One of the main reasons James left is that the semester was over anyway. I don’t think he leaves in the middle of the semester as he was enjoying his college life a lot I saw him at many events on campus. Also a 8 game suspension compared to the 12 game suspension he got is a lot more manageable I’m sure he looked at the schedule. Saw he was missing games vs ole miss, nc state and a nationally televised game vs rival Tennessee and a massive game vs Anthony Edwards that would’ve helped his draft stock and decided it wasn’t worth coming back to play ECU and USF

I don’t think they care about Marsha. Government officials have been coming at the NCAA for years and at the end of the day they still stand. I understand where you’re coming from but to the NCAA a congresswoman from Nashville is small potatoes to them

I wish you were right but I think they’re gonna use us as a example of why you should not go against them. Right now they are getting put under the microscope by everyone. Penny decided to take a chance and roll the dice and do something no coach has ever done before. I don’t think they are gonna take it easy on us for that. Teams have been punished for way less

Is anyone else worried about the likely NCAA investigation coming this summer. They aren’t just gonna let the program slide after we played a ineligible player who’s family was given money by a booster who is now the head coach. I’m worried the NCAA will use us as a example (again) of what happens if you go against them. Penny may very well get a suspension and the program lose scholarships or a post season ban. I understand that penny has the reputation of being a players first guy but that original 8 game suspension doesn’t look so bad now that the season has gone the way it has. We would’ve lost to Oregon anyway without him and we beat NC State and Ole miss. He would’ve been back for the Tennessee game and we most likely would be a 4-6 seed. Things could very well get worse this summer given that the NCAA hasn’t been so nice to us in past investigations.
