Escaped against the KenPom #335 ranked team. Wow. Yeah our lofty #178 (last in Pac12 below Cal) will go down further with our next games. Can this team win 5 Pac12 games? NOOOOOOOOOO! |

This is the best Chol's looked as a Beaver. He only scored 2 points (took 2 shots) but he had 6 rebounds and had 3 blocked shots. He only got credit for 2 but he had at least 3. He also changed some shots and flat out intimidated CP players from shooting in the paint. That's what a shot blocker does. Well I’d say he looked better in his double double game, but I understand from where you are coming. The problem is — and no fault of Chol’s — that Beavers don’t have the fire power to have the luxury of someone playing 17 minutes and scoring 2 points. That was obvious with some of the lineups we had to play with Akanno being out. That said, he is playing much better of late than I expected and contributing. |

Most other programs would have shown TInkle the door after the last 3 years of garbage play, lack of recruiting and no forward progress in the program since the Elite 8 run. A 2-OT win against a lower tier school and no 3's shot to boot should be the straw the broke the camel's back.
Wayne is not going to turn this around given recent trends. Yes you have a buyout to fire him but that problem exists with any firing.
Show Wayne the door.

But he’s also about the same age. Chris Weinke was when he won the Heisman. He should be a superstar |

Weinke was still playing baseball, when he was Chol's age. Also, Weinke winning the Heisman was a complete joke with Michael Vick throwing the ball around at Virginia Tech with Florida State and Virginia Tech each being 10-1. Just a joke. |

Most other programs would have shown TInkle the door after the last 3 years of garbage play, lack of recruiting and no forward progress in the program since the Elite 8 run. A 2-OT win against a lower tier school and no 3's shot to boot should be the straw the broke the camel's back. Wayne is not going to turn this around given recent trends. Yes you have a buyout to fire him but that problem exists with any firing. Show Wayne the door. |

In reverance to your well placed anecdote from that clip, kinda hard to see anything beautiful on a gray, atmospheric river day like today here in the Willamette Valley. |

Two years ago was garbage play. 1 year ago was improved but not good. This year has yet to unfold. Timelines are important. |

Yet to unfold? Well we beat Linfield and the two worst teams in the Big West. I'd say no one should be looking forward to pac12 play. Well actually the other pac12 teams will be looking forward to playing us.
Timelines are important. Sure they are. We are like 18-52 since the elite 8. How much more punishment you need?

We lost to a 6 win University of Portland in OOC the Elite 8 season. We might as well finish out the season to see where this one goes. Then it's probably time to make a decision. Should I be posting Wilky's negative vibe video again? |

Curious that DaJohn Craig got zero minutes last night. Has Josiah taken over his minutes? With Dex out Craig could have eaten up some minutes.
