The closer we are to the rim the less likely we are to make the shot.

I said after the Washington game that our game vs WSU may be our last win of the season.

It appears I was being a homer with that comment.

I'm sure it's been mentioned before, but Jeter always rolls to his left in the paint. If I was a defender I'd make him roll to his right.

The only fucking way Randolph is going to play better is if I stipulate I will never pick him gain.

I will never pick him again.

Give PT to the guys who want it enough to take the fucking shot, put themselves on the floor, take a charge: Coleman; Doutrive; Barcello; Jeter. That's it. Play a 4 man rotation.

Sounds like a good use of your time.

wish i had something else to do at the moment other than watch the incompetence that is this game.

Lunch is my favorite meal Merk, but that's not a winning basketball formula.

Could Miller get fired for how bad the team is before the FBI/NCAA bullshit is over? I'm beginning to wonder.

0 chance. UA is paying RichRod $3M this year (and $3M last year) and they will need to come up with $7M to fire Miller, who makes 85% even if he gets fired with cause.

Not to mention the money to pay a new coach.

We're just tapped out.

I was actually curious about Miller's contract. Thanks for the info. Tough season for sure. Embrace the suck.
