    White would yank people too quick, Golden doesn’t yank them at all unless he just doesn’t play them.

    My 2-cents, a lot of times he holds the ball too long but that's mostly a function of his teammates not cutting or moving. That's what I'd change about him . . . and don't go so low unless the play is a cut to the basket. I'd rather he catch it at or just under the elbow. However, Coach Golden knows a lot more than I do.

    On paper this team has a lot of potential.

    nothing we can do about it at this point, but it was a head scratcher considering White was too inexperienced when he came on after Billy

    Maybe Napier and his army cost too much

    I’m right there with you. How hard could it have been finding an upgrade from our last coach and somehow our AD went all the way across the country to find one that makes White look like Red Auerbach.

    White had reached his ceiling, and that wasn't anywhere close to what is expected around here.

    The way things are going, we may have to adjust what our expected ceiling is.

    Yes!!! The ball getting into the paint and back out. This team isn’t as bad of shooters as it seems… gotta get some good looks, in rhythm!!!

    We seem to play much better when open 3 pointers go in the basket.

    Finally...we're pushing the ball and keeping the defense on their heels. Finding the open man and making a few shots.

    Let's go!!!

    He’s trying. Not easy with no one moving. Take CC out and we lose 2-3 more games to this point.

    I’d want Mike White back like I’d like a swift kick to the nuts.

    It wouldn't have been. However, our AD and his predecessor think they're smarter than everyone in the room.

    And cheaper too.
