Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Is it pointless to root for UW to lose to SC?

    It's too hard to get your team to buy in when they know the coach is only signed until 2020.

    Even moose over on dm.c has to be having second thoughts by now........wait, there is no way. He's probably planning for a ncaa tourney run in 2017
    The only question in moose's mind in regard to Romar is "spit or swallow"

    But Romar is a great man

    UW basketball was garbage 30 years ago. Lifetime contract please.

    Two days ago Moose gave a state of the union address over on doogman. As usual, he gave the "I'm not happy with the team right now, but I will trade wins for having a great man like Romar as head coach" routine. He cited the fact that Romar doesn't pay recruits like Miller and doesnt recruit shady characters (Updhaw? Overton?) like Altman. Oh, and most importantly, he doesn't cuss and is good for the community (whatever that means).

    Fuck that. Schrempf, Welp, Fortier, Shag Williams - those boys could ball.

    3 straight NCAA appearances. Two Pac 10 titles.

    30 years ago was the golden age of husky hoops.

    Marv is giving you a big middle finger from the grave. Wearing funny nose and glasses.

    Year 13

    JJ
    Dorsey
    AA
    Mike Anderson
    Darin Johnson

    Winters

    That is your starting lineup, and 6th man.

    Team produced a blistering 29% from the field, and 32% from 3. They lost got blown out by a 10-18 team who shot 22% from 3, and 45% from the FT line.

    All I see are 2 4 stars, A Kevin Durant clone, an explosive scoring Oregon player of the year, and a coveted National JC recruit.

    Exactly 30 years ago, UW beat Duke in the NCAA Tourney to advance to the Sweet 16.

    The excuses made for Romar are ridiculous - at this point, people supporting him are enabling something far worse than mediocrity ... Indifference

    Rooting in my heart for Ty and Sark to lose when it became clear they were not the guy really hurt. I care about the team so much, and even in those moments where I knew it was best for the program if we lost, I still wanted to see the guys win.

    This isn't football. I love basketball as a sport, but the college game is such a complete dreckfest that unless you have a powerhouse, NOGAF.

    I hope we lose out. Get blown out the first game in the Pac Tourney. And are promptly ushered in a new era.

    30 years ago we lost to KY in Marv's last game in round 1.

    The wins over Nevada and Duke were in 84.

    Roosevelt. Fucking. Chapman.
