I don't think this lousy performing team has any room to point fingers at anyone or anything. So I doubt it

I can't disagree. I just hope to see improvement as the year goes on. I'm hopeful when Tres comes back having him and Thompson playing together can help, but I'm just not sure.
I think the lack of any junior or senior leadership is really taking its toll. I never thought the recruits brought in to this point were going to be leaders in year one or two. On most good teams they'd be coming of the bench or if starting they wouldn't be the first option. I've always enjoyed college ball with teams of upperclassmen playing good team ball the best. So here's hoping we keep getting some good recruits to support these guys the next couple years.

Gave up on Coach Tinkle....3-8 is unacceptable. He can't coach and recruit will be harder. I am afraid its only begin for the worse to come. Jay Johns and even Craig Robinson can do better job than this team. I have been a Beavers fan since Ralph Miller era and this is the worst team and one of the worst in the county right now. Yes, the team went to March Madness last year because of Gary Payton II lead the team who was recruited by CR. Will go 0-18 in PAC-12, I am sorry to say that. Hope the new AD will take serious and fix the problem down the road.

You think after the first two seasons with Tinkle that you'd give the guy a little leeway..I love how people are completely jumping ship. .just do me a favor and don't jump back on when things get better, ok?

The football dark ages tested fandom. Those who were fans in year 27, were really fans. You probably would have committed suicide by year four or five.

The Beavs are in the same catch 22 that all bad programs are in. The better players don't want to go to a historically losing program (unless their dad is one of the coaches) and you can't change the programs lack of success until you get better players. OSU men's basketball has dug a deep hole for itself the past 25 years and it is going to be really hard to dig out of it. I think many up and coming young coaches are wary of taking a job that is considered one of the worst in the conference. The 5 head coaches after Ralph all failed, we will see how number 6 fairs. It will take someone special to turn things around.

They probably feel the same about the fan base. The way they play I'm not sure they care about anything! Certainly don't give a dam about defense, or running an offense, so what do they care about?? The fan base is the absolute least of their worries. Another 0-fer the PAC12 is looming, I don't see us getting lucky very many times. Sad state of affairs and I'm pretty sure the seat under WT is getting warm. Don't get me wrong, I'm not ready to join the fire WT movement yet, but unless he shows he can teach these kids to play and some fundamentals that won't last long for most of us, and buy that I mean the end of the year.

Lol... but you have to take into consideration the author! He thinks he's funny and his last post on the football board included an analogy of "... you'd probably have committed suicide..." Class dude... always goes too far.

Grow up, jdogge!
It's a freedom of speech. You don't have to read my post.
I may be over-reaction after high expectation. Just very frustrating with some bad losses so are many other Beaver fans that don't post here.
I still have Beavers porch flag up in front of my house and often wear Beavers gear when I am not at work.
Happy with the direction of football program, enjoying national ranked Lady Beavers basketball and looking forward to baseball season.

To be fair --- this team has lost five games by a total of eighteen points. They could just as easily be 8-3. And four of those loses have come while Tres was injured. So, perhaps, the situation isn't quite as bleak as many here fear. No, they aren't playing as well as expected. I don't intend to whitewash that fact. But, I do believe things will turn around when Tres gets back with the added benefit that Kendal Manuel is getting some experience that we will need during Pac-12 play.

Wow.....some people are saying the sky is falling and would rather have the Craig Robinsons and Jay John's.......last I recall, WT team made the dance last year which neither CR or JJ teams did. I like Tinkle and think he has done well for the Beav's. I can understand the frustration with this year's team so far, but no way would I have traded WT for CR or JJ team's. The losses of Duvivier and Bruce are weighing quite heavily on the team right now and the injuries have plagued this team even further so I'm giving WT some slack for having to deal with all of those factors. Duvivier's strength was his defense and that is sorely lacking right now. Bruce was just coming into being a decent guard at the end of last year.......hope the team starts to gel when Tres comes back.

I am frustrated with the way the Team Plays. It really Hurt us losing the Guard that left Oregon State. It hurt losing a Senior. Our big Men are not very good. Turnovers and bad spacing is part of it. I just think some of the guys are over rated. Tinkle is hurt a lot. Count on Him 1/2 the time. Stevie is inconsistent and to slight. We don't have that much to develop and I am tired of bad basketball.Especially when the School to the South has a sound coach. I don't want Tinkle Fired,but I didn't even watch last nights loss on TV.They have lost Me until they fix this Mess. I too fly a Beaver Flag and just got My football ticket packet for next Year.Luckily I will be in California for 3 Months and can forget about this mess. If Tinkle is fired think of all the players that we will lose. Downside of recruiting Coaches Son's. I want them to do well so It bothers Me to confess I am done with them for this Year. No Athletic Dirctor yet either. Rudderless.
