Amen. But half these dolts on here don't want to here that. They will keep her around and all of a sudden expect titles.
Your usual strawman. No one is happy that at this point in time, UT is barely qualifying for the NCAA tourney. That is not where we should be as a program. We have never failed to qualify for the tourney. I am on record as saying if that ever happens, whoever is the coach should be fired on the spot.
As for whatever else you say about Kelly, we did come within an eyelash of beating the cocks, and by your own admission should have. USC is hands down, by far, the no. 1 program in the country.
Does that excuse the horrible way we lost? No. (although I didn't see it, and am only going off what I read).
Does that mean we throw up our hands and give up on the rest of the season? Not just no, but HELL no.
Kelly could well use the frustration over the loss to spring this team deep into the tourney.
My attitude is what it always is, "wait and see". Then make an assessment after the season. No sense in the constant whining or the loser mentality you show, constantly harping on every negative thing you can.
Finally...I think you misinterpret Pirate. I am pretty sure he is saying "forget it, the administration is not going to make a move this year". I can't speak for Pirate, but I can tell you that is a broad consensus among UT fans.
But anyway...has the team shown improvement this year? We have played Junior three times. The first was an ass kicking. The second was a close game. The third, by your own admission, we SHOULD HAVE WON.
That is progress whether you like it or not.
If we make the Elite Eight or even Final Four, then Kelly can redeem the season. Honestly that's all that matters, is The Show.
Most everyone knows that, but you as usual seem uninformed (or ignorant if you prefer).
