some observations. 1. I am now officially calling for a coaching change at UT. The individual in charge of our dance team should be immediately terminated. Then, any money earmarked for raises for certain coaches should be offered to whoever is responsible for the Memphis Pom Pon Squad. Those would be funds well spent. 2. CUSA is killing Memphis. They simply do not get enough big time games to stay sharp. 3. Southern Miss is one more recruiting class from being the biggest threat to the Tigers. USM is about to be rewarded for their brilliant and gutsy decision to hire Larry Eustachy. 4. As a younger man, I had a couple of opportunities to go into coaching. The end sequence of today's game is an example of why I could never enter that profession. USM plays perfectly, then gets killed by an Andre Allen 3 with about a minute left. I would probably slit my wrists if I were Coach Eustachy. 5. Willie Kemp had better get used to the bench. When Derek Rose arrives next year, he will be hard pressed to get on the floor.

Thats why the good ones get paid so much. Coaching has to be one of the most stressful jobs out there.

Absolutely. You do everything right, then a nonshooter slops in a shot. That lack of control over events would land me in an asylum.

Did you catch the UNC/Zona score? Terrible effort by the Cats today..UNC was without Wright and Ginyard as well.

memphis should've put together a bigger push to get into the big east. i dont know how south florida got a bid over memphis other than the memphis AD didnt do a good job of putting that together. pre-season i liked having gonzaga in feb. but they dont look that great either. jeremy wise is gonna be the real deal for usm. they'll get there. i think uab will rebuild into a decent team, houston has the history and potential to be a good team, but overall cusa sucks right now.

have fun at the grizz game hat. the tigers play twice the D the grizz do.

Coaching?I could see it now,"I think we just witnessed a new record distance tossing of the chair across the court, bypassing Bobby Knight's distance by a record 20 feet".:) Possibly Woody Hayes tendencies as well.:)

As usual, Arizona is soft. When things are going their way, they are fine. Give them a little adversity, and they pack it in. That said, Carolina is rounding into the monster I expected tham to be. Kansas, on the other hand, is not quite there.

All very well said. If Rose is half of what he is hyped up to be, Kemp will be riding the bench a lot next year. He has kind of been a disappointment so far. Memphis is a COMPLETELY different team when Dorsey stays out of foul trouble.

As for the Memphis dance team........:worship: :wub: :rock2: :popcorn: :drool:

To the best of my knowledge, it was Memphis' decision to stay in CUSA

RC Johnson made a pathetic attempt at getting Memphis in the Big East. I think the Big East wanted to keep a large media market in South Florida though.

It was NOT Memphis' decision to stay. Though you would think so by RC's attempt.

They also lost Marcus Williams with 4 minutes left in the first half to the same type of injury Lofton had, but they were still playing lousy then too.

Arizona will go as far as their 3 point shooting will take them. Also, Olsen should seriously consider lowering Shakur's minutes by half.

If they did, it was most likely a competition that had a competitive eating component.

I don't think I'd take it that far. However, the Memphis dancers are pretty enticing. They don't mess around out there. I was stunned when I saw them at them at the UT-Memphis matchup this fall. They can actually pull your attention away from the game.

Well, if you are going to bash, hat, at least know what you are talking about:

TENNESSEE DANCE TEAM CAPTURES FIRST NATIONAL CROWN :: Tennessee Finished in the Top-5 in Dance, Cheer and Mascot Competitions

Not only did they win but they did it by finishing top 5 in Cheer, Dance, and Mascot divisions.
I see no category labeled hotness or sex appeal, so I could not give a damn less about some trophies given out by a bunch of fruits and bowheads who think cheerleading is a competitive sport.

Well, it was a competition. If you don't understand the words Dance competition, then don't argue. It wasn't a beauty pageant nor a stripping contest nor an eating contest of some sort. Don't hate because you, yet again, were proven wrong.

Tell me again how Dane Bradshaw can play point guard, Bruce Pearl was going to turn Damien Harris into a player, and Marques Johnson was a PG. If you want to worry about a bunch of squirrely simpletons and sorostitutes giving out trophies for coreography, have at it. I was not wrong. Wrong would be if I said they did not win said championship. I simply do not care if they did. I, and 99.99% of the heterosexual male population, could care less about some phony competition judged by flamers and washed up trophy wives. We would prefer to see actual hot dancers.
