The fan support isn't there, the revenue isn't there, and therefore there's no reason for the AD to make risky investments in basketball. As long as it's not bad enough to be embarrassing like Kim's time here, it doesn't matter.

                         you make it sound expecting more than 50% of the time - SuperTone MU - 2/24 14:23:04
                              Look at other schools that had similar rebuilds - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/24 14:25:43

                                                       arky has a much better coach.(nm) - SuperTone MU - 2/24 15:13:48

                         RE: I wonder if we can set a record for most Q1 wins w/out - semotiger83 MU - 2/24 14:22:20

                              We're the 3rd-cheapest program in the SEC - zoomer 99 - 2/24 14:22:38
                                   I expect us to hire and fire coaches in search of winning - SuperTone MU - 2/24 14:24:01
                                        Then we'll get the cheapest HC or the cheapest staff - zoomer 99 - 2/24 14:26:03
