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

The Romar excuse machine never takes a year off

I'm hearing that UW sucks only because a freshman who nobody's seen play left, Durant-lite got injured and Upshaw decided that X>basketball. In no way is it a lack of roster management at all. Same thing with last year. Of course, it's never Romar's fault. Just plain bad luck.

    Jernard Jerreau has Kevin Durant upside, in case you haven't heard

    Disagree, it was funny and that team and those players (minus Suggs) earned the right to embarrass themselves like that. They're college kids who cares. 500 other things Romar should be fired for.

    Wow. I'd almost forgot that. Romar should be fired for this alone.

    Are you referring to the dancing dawgs video or the recruitment and lack of development of those 4 specific players?

    Kent Griswold is already talking up the special 2016 class. Can't risk a coaching change with so much in state talent.

    I feel like I'm the only one that got a kick out of the Dancing Dawgs. Also I miss MBA, his puffy nips, and unneccessary "AND 1!!!!!!"s.

    Yeah it's gay as shit but at least the players enjoyed it and it put a smile on their face. All we see these days is a complete dreckfest consisting of Dorsey looking like he's about to cry at all times, Nigel complaining, Gilles looking like a baby deer, and Kemp looking like he's lost and can't find his way home. All to the tune of horrible EDM music and FREE T SHIRTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The only player on this team I respect is Anderson. He seems like he has some goddamn heart and even got T'd up once. Viva Mike!

    RIP Husky Hoops.

    Anderson is doing his job. Dude has been asked to play the 4 two years in a row now and he doesn't complain, just does his job and takes it to the rack. He's everything I thought Darin Johnson was going to be. Can't fault his effort.

    Anderson is pretty bad for a guy playing 30 minutes a game. He's content with doing very little offensively when he is a decent shooter (40% from 3), has an okay handle, and can take guys off the dribble.

    Johnson is terrible, but I have a feeling he's going to put up 15-20 when he transfers to a MWC or Big Sky school. He has some talent, but he's in the tank mentally and has been all season.

    Romar isn't getting enough from either guy when there is talent there.

    That's a fair take, I just like how Anderson has adapted his role because nobody else is stepping up. I guess I see less pout in him, versus Johnson who looks sad and shaken up that he's not dominating like he dreamed he would. Anderson would probably shoot more from outside if he wasn't playing the 4 half the game. The roster is embarrassing no matter how you slice it.

    Has anyone considered that we could see a decent size roster turn over regardless of whether romar stays?

    Anderson - Gone(graduated)
    Andrews - Stays(Where else can you shoot 35% as a SG and still play 30+ minutes a game?)
    Gilles - Transfer(how can this guy not go to a smaller school and get PT? He isn't playing on a team playing 4 under sized guards b/c he's so bad)
    Dorsey - Should be here
    JJ - Here
    DJ - Transfer(I'll be shocked if he's a husky 2 weeks after the season ends)
    Kemp - Gone
    Taylor - Already gone
    Upshaw - black tar is your friend
    NWG - Draft(I think a lot of people were vindicated after saying NWG isn't a nba type player, but i'm still not sure he thinks he isn't. So with the roster problems and more losing, I could see him leaving).
    Winters - Toss up on him as there really is no point to transfer unless it's to a smaller school, but he isn't playing on a shitty team.

    We really could be looking at a situation with Dorsey, Andrews, JJ and winters. Oh yeah, then the heralded freshman.

    I just read something on the seattle times and forgot that AA will be a 5th year senior. With the dreckfest that's likely pending next year, there is also a chance he leaves to play a la dez simmons.

    If he called Dez and asked how fun it is playing 30 minutes for 19-6 st mary's, vs getting your ass smashed each night I can imagine he may check out other opportunities.

    Unlike Dez, AA has never had trouble getting minutes or shots.

    I guess getting minutes on a team that will make the ncaa tourney is much less fun than getting up shots on a .500 or less team.

    I get what you are saying, but Dez didn't leave because the team was struggling. He left because he wasn't playing, and when he did play, he wasn't a part of the offense.

    i don't think it's probable AA leaves at all. Just thought it was interesting it was mentioned as a possibility. If UW has any chance of being decent next year they need AA to stay around regardless of whether I would prefer to starts. He is still a good enough player to be a role guy on a very good team, and will be a lot better than rolling out frosh as starters.

    No way NWG leaves, unless he wants to play in Europe. He's not Wroten athletically, or Lavine, his ceiling is reached athletically, his future is coaching
