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

when two UW players are drafted in the lottery and the team didn't sniff the post season?

Chad fords latest Mock draft is out and has Chriss at 4 and Murray at 10. If you were to put out a poll that said should a coach be fired when they can't make a 68 team tourney with 2 top 13 draft picks the resounding answer from everyone would be 95% in favor.

I'm so thankful that the 5% who wouldn't fire the coach reside in the West side of Washington.

    I'd bet a small amount of money Murray won't go in the lottery (get all the screenshots you need tommy!). But still, fire Romar.

    All the negative comments from posters like you poison the Recruits and their families. Its hard to put a complete team together with all the venom and hatred cast Coach Romar's way. You don't hear about it but recruits end up going elsewhere. Sark had the same problem - it prevented him from moving beyond the 8 win mark.

    Its easy to criticize - try positivity and be part of the solution.

    Murray has been a lottery pick ever since he signed with Lebrons agency.

    Murray is going to be a better pro than Chriss. Chriss will be decent. Murray is an all star with a shot. He's Shaun Livingston before the knee injury.

    I'll take that bet. Give me the guy that can shoot.

    Murray has no business being a lottery pick ... definition of a soft draft class

    Romar sucks ... he isn't getting fired because the department can't afford more red ink ... water is wet

    Disagree.

    Chriss will make noise in the league. Kid's got game, and he's like barely 18.

    I think Chriss has a chance to turn into a good player, but he's too much of a Al Farouq Aminu, Tyrus Thomas, Peter Warrick type imo. He has the size, he can really jump, and he can shoot a little bit, but he also broke the record for most fouls by a Pac 12 player though. He doesn't really know what he's doing.

    NBA scouts sometimes get too lovestruck on that and hyped on potential because of a guy's athleticism. They ignore the fact that Chriss has no clue about the nuances of the game because he's only played four years. These types every year, and Chriss could be one of those guys, especially when you consider he will go to a shitty team unless he lands in Boston with the #3 pick. The gap between Simmons, Ingram and Chriss is huge.

    Murray has the natural hoops IQ to be good, but he needs to get a little bigger and develop a shot. I love his game though. Both have a lot of work to do (like 99% of rookies in the NBA).

    He shot 57% from the field and 35% from 3. He could improve it a bit but he has a decent jumper.
