[QUOTE="LibertyTurns, post: 209428, member: 789"] Let's review the history here. You all can correct any of my inaccuracies as I'm not a sports historian. A. Blewitt was a poor coach. The program was headed in the wrong direction. He was let go. B. Gregory was hired. He inherited a crappy program and didn't even have a home court. Try recruiting into that scenario. C. After year 3, it became apparent Gregory was struggling. I'm assuming the new AD (think he would have been here 1 year at this point) would have had the old heart to heart. Didn't we give him a raise????? I'm assuming somebody besides me on here is actually in charge of people. Count the number of times you've given a raise to someone who was performing poorly and let me know if the number is greater than ZERO. D. Years 4 and 5 are no better. I have no idea how they compare to year 3 because I'm not a basketball guru. I understand everyone's frustration that it's 2 more years of malaise and we all want it to end. I wanted him gone around this time, shot an email to the AD, read between the lines & realized he had no intention of firing him. My personal comments on this board had gotten over the top & I finally realized my opinion means jack & I might as well support the guy because he's going no where. E. Now we're in year 6. The AD publicly proclaims "he had the talk". Somehow in my mind we end up with players on the roster that look nothing like last year to me. I know they all transferred in. Maybe that's the plan for next year. Not like he can broadcast it on a billboard. All I'm saying is we're better than last year, so the dude did what was expected. Well, did the AD get hit with the stupid stick in 2013 and give him a raise or is his level of what's good different from you and me? I think the standard is much lower than we think, plus coupled with financials we're decided to play the hand we've got for another year or two. Maybe I'm wrong. [/QUOTE]
