Better to lose them now than in March. I mean Izzo's no Coach K.

Now, here is where I'm saying that I refuse to bitch about something. I hate the fact that we lost to Texas southern, but there are a couple of truths here. 1. This team was never in anyway thought to be a N.C. contender, or even a big ten title contender. We all agree to that.
2. We certainly did lose to those schools before, and we can sit here and bitch about it, but how did we end up in the tournament those years? 3. I believe the next two years are going to be damn good at MSU. I like our young guys, I know we've lost two first rounders, I know that it's tough.

Do we really get so angry that we want Izzo gone? Is that what "not accepting mediocrity" is about?

Will it help our recruiting if Green gets a monster contract after this year? He's playing himself into (I've read reports anyway) around 7-9 mil a year. Wouldn't that almost be something spun into a positive.

Yes you can go the one and done route, and most likely end up in Europe. Or you can play for MSU, put in the hard work and ethic, and you can make the NBA, and make good money there.

Yes and no, won't attract the Okafur's or the Parkers IMO. Those guys want to get into the NBA in a semester. We need more Zack Randolphs IMO to attract more of the guys that Izzo has been pursuing the last couple of years.

Izzo is better at getting the Payne, Roe or the Green type of player that is a good baller and values being a student/the college experience.

Um, we made the Final Four in the years we lost to Wright State and Grand Valley (which was exhibition btw)

Costello had 17 and 10.

What upperclassmen didnt play with a purpose? Dawson was out. Trice? Denzel?

I thought at the beginning of the year and after a handful of games Trice would be a top 3-4 PG in the B1G. But that was fools gold. He just isn't very good.

Costello cost us this game in the end and can't dominate anyone.

Trice is the very definition of what I loath: spot up 3 pt shooter with minimal skills and effort.

Bograkos wasn't any good, but that didn't stop him. Replace these two and we might only have 1 loss if any at all

How does one accept mediocrity? Especially as a fan? I need to know. I hope we don't say that you have to come on here and bitch about the team. Because you know that's just idiotic.

If bitching about something means anything more than "you're just a pain in the ass insignificant fan", let me know. If looking at the games and saying we hope to improve in certain aspects and to get better without bitching about it means we've accepted mediocrity, I think those who believe that are a bit, well, retarded.

Simple continue to defend bobby Williams as HC to this very day!

Problem is izzo hasn't been going after the draymond green type. Hell, we lucked into him in the first place!!

Bess and Clark seem close and promising. The tum tum hype is flat out redic! Dude can barely hang right now!

One freaking down year and the pussies come out of the woodwork. MSU has been a top ten program since you were a in kindergarden . Pretty much your entire freaking life. I don't give a shit what you "accept". Entitlement sucks.

Costello has 27 points and 19 rebounds in his last 44 minutes.

Trice plays pretty damn hard . For all the Trice haters out there I will ask you this : where would this team be without Travis Trice ? That would leave Tum Tum ( who you bashed 3 posts ago)

Please don't post about shit like basketball. It's out of your league.

SpartanHT wrote:Honestly, I wouldn't mind Izzo leaving.

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate all he's done for our university, but I don't think his style overall is conducive to the way the game is today. The game has changed since he was one of the best coaches, but he's frankly done a poor job at making adjustments to the new one and done era of college basketball.

I don't know. I just see MSU basketball as a way to make the football offseason go faster and honestly prefer MSU hockey and football by a wide margin. I'd like to see us do well, but I don't think Izzo is right for today's day and age of college basketball.

He's great, but man, I think that having someone more "modern" would do us more good at a cheaper price.

I missed this the first time around.

It's satire.....right? Please?

Getting upset is one thing. Going full retard is another. I'm pretty sure you wouldn't have survived the eighties Heathcote era.
