Kim Grinolds and some other dawgman people are pedaling this notion that Sam Timmons was forced to give up his jersey # to Isaiah Stewart and that caused a morale hit with the team that snowballed into the shitshow that has been this season. If true, that is some seriously shitty team management by Hopkins.
The incompetence is reaching epic proportions. We have the in season roster mismanagement, lack of player development for anyone on the roster, inability to keep Green eligible, an offense that makes you contemplate the heat death of the universe, and zero recruits for 2020.Plus the inability to win a fucking game. What exactly are the positives?-a regular season title in a down year for the conference.-a tourney win against a mid major before getting shit on by UNC.-a good recruiting class that he’s managed to lead to the PAC-12 cellar.Is anyone still on board with this guy???

Ty needs more time being resurrected on the doogman basketball bored"Feel bad...For HC Hopkins. By all accounts this is a decent man with great BB pedigree who came and connected with a community and resurrected this program from mediocracy.This year, unfortunately, he gets saddled with a terrific dunderhead like McDaniels who sabotages key games at key moments. He knows they'll pack the box against Stewart but not a single one of the perimeter guys can sink a shot when the team needs it. Green totally misreads the "fine print" on transfer that he actually needs to succeed in school to play BB here, and that sets the whole tone for the season. The team gets a second half lead and then goes to sleep. The players are simply not listening to the coaches.What a waste for a fine man"
Cohen is in for a rough year. Hopkins is flaming out to a degree of failure never remotely imagined. Lake almost assuredly will be a massive bust, as evidenced by his hiring of Donovan which might be the worst OC hire in the history of college football. Both are first-time HCs learning on the job, massively, massively in over their heads. At an elite university and with the tools and recruiting base to succeed quickly and sustainably.Embarrassing.

There’s 0 chance this is true, and if it is, a team that is so mentally weak that they get upset over something as stupid as this is going nowhere
Don't think so. Find me a P5 OC hire that screamed 'categorical failure' more than Donovan. Remember, unproven OCs or 1st-time OCs at least give you the "I hope he turns out good" card to play. With Donovan you have multiple instances of extreme incompetence, including finishing 111th at PSU which is a program very similar to ours in the Big Ten. And then rotting away in the NFL as the secretarial assistant to the running backs coach of a dead, soon-to-be-fired staff. It's a 0/10. Not even a 1/10.It's the worst on paper OC P5 hire of the modern era.

This team is the definition of The Disease of Me
This team is the definition of The Disease of Me No question and this is why one and dones are bad unless an elite coach with a track record is coaching them. Too many handlers, too many concessions made, and it creates too much bad blood with the regular players on the team. McDaniels is not of any benefit to the team and absolutely hurts the program despite being talented.

McDaniels is not of any benefit to the team and absolutely hurts the program despite being talented. The only hope (hope?, lol), because Hop isnt going anywhere, is that Hop as a real first time head coach didnt understand how destructive a guys like Mcdaniels and Quade if they arent managed expertly and he has learned from this years disaster and he goes back to getting tryhards like Tybulle, Nowell, and dickersons with a Stewart type 5 star every 2-3 years playing hard within his defensive system. Shit happens, Fuck Hop, he should be fired for this season, but its the fact that there is absolutely nothing to look forward to next season that is so fucking draining. If he had 2-3 good prospects coming in after this season I could probably convince myself to give him a mulligan/fluke because he has been good in the past and he isnt going anywhere anyways so might as well LIPO. But the shit this season and recruiting is just retarded.

But the shit this season and recruiting is just retarded. The problem with keeping Hop is that we are basically starting from scratch next year when he’s already had three years. We aren’t a player or two away. We are 4-5 players away. Not one guy returning is a top 20 player in the conference.
