7 years in. This needs to be Mike Anderson last year

[Mr. Porkleone]

Long Hires in his tenure.

CBB we saw his results.

Mike Anderson. He's done nothing. Top 25 how many times in 7 years? How many SEC Championships? How many weekend NCAA's? Road record?

Time for change. Anderson can't get his players ready and I'm tired of Mediorce teams.

What a JOKE!

[RagingHawgOn]

That mike'd up chit was a JOKE.

Coaching? Nope.

Sick of this crap.

The Hogs will recover. Humble pie.

[jst01]

Total apathy has set in for me. I clicked on the game and saw it was 25-9 and turned on the Apple TV and watched some random show on amazon. Still don't know score.

[SoCalHogFan]

You really think the new AD is gonna pull a move like that in his first year? Maybe if we plummet, but I️ don't see I️t if we go close to 50/50 in SEC and make the tourney.

[ADavisTheGOAT]

Billy Donovan might get fired from the OKC Thunder. Better take advantage.

Same ole same ole. 50/50. Not good enough 7 years in. Fire Mike Anderson

In looking at our schedule, I really have a hard time seeing how we get to 18-20 wins.

He's not the guy.  He never was.  Anyone who thought he could replicate Nolan's years was fooling themselves.

What is Anderson's buyout?

Certain guys are having issues. They need to workout their differences and get back to plsying ball. Dustin T really is playing like he doesn't care about the team.

[bkjbearcat]

Was going to go to St. Louis this year for the tournament. Wont anymore. Team will be one and done.

[Knot2brite]

MA guaranteed himself at least two years last year. They will best enough teams to be a probably NCAA team but not a lock and we will worry all the way through the selection show and probably make a play in (6/11) game and it will be enough for the powers that be.....MA isn't getting fired

[ICEman]

We need to rid ourselves of all vestiges of Jeff Long's existence in terms of coaching hires.

[maxhog5]

What I have a problem with is in 7 years with the possible exception of Portis' second year,  Anderson has continually failed to put a complete team on the floor.   One position has always been a black hole.  I guess I should be happy.  At least this year, the Hogs aren't relying on a walk-on as part of the rotation and he has actually managed to fill all scholarships.

[Sivad]

MA isn't getting fired

Of course not - for the same reason he was hired and massively overpaid - he is NolAnderson. The chosen one.

[Tusker4life]

I like CMA, but this what, the 24th year or so he has been in Fayetteville? Time for new blood, no Kentucky players or unproven nice guys needed. The Nolan magic left with him.

I don't keep up with NBA, however CBD would be the home run hire of all time.

And was proclaimed that by many who now call for his head

[ChicoHog]

Hopefully the new AD won't let the GOBN keep Anderson.  We may bounce back from this like last year but as long as Anderson is the coach these type of games will always happen.  He just doesn't get it and never will. 

[Tusker4life]

I am a big OKC fan and it's not looking good for Donovan either, big talent and in a 3 game skid as well. They played barely better than Arkansas tonight.

I don't keep up with NBA, however CBD would be the home run hire of all time.

[elksnort]

It's the same darn that happens all the time. If they don't beat Missouri on Saturday then it really is time to worry

[pigmania]

There's absolutely no reason to be playing this poorly with the inability to win on the road when this team is senior heavy. There are 7 seniors on this team, yet they play like a young inexperienced freshman team.

[hog47]

This team, if you can call it that, has lost their shooting touch. Lack of defense, and look lost. I thought it might be the starters playing too many minutes and it's caught up to them.whatever it is this group will have a losing season unless there are major changes done and soon, 

[PygmalionEffect2]

[3kgthog]

If there's anything less than a Sweet 16, he needs to go. That's more than fair. That's what Stan and Pel were allowed in fewer seasons. If the recruits leave, so what? Mike wouldn't do anything with them anyway.

[hobhog]

Fire MA for good of program.

[hogfan870]

I was shocked about how poorly we played tonight.

I don't remember the exact game (loss) last year when I gave up on Anderson, but I will say that right after it, we turned it around and ending up having what I considered an acceptable year. I guess I hope he does that again this year, but it is hard to be optimistic right now.

P.S. It did not effect the outcome, but I was at the game was very disappointed with the officiating. Particularly the dark black ref. He really seemed biased to me, both on calls and non calls.  Did it seem that way to the people watching on TV? Did the commentators say anything about it?

[Pork Twain]

This year both of our HCs made a fool of me.  I really thought this was the year that they were both going to put it all together.  One fired, one to go.

[cosmodrum]

He's not the guy.  He never was.  Anyone who thought he could replicate Nolan's years was fooling themselves.   

At least we got that over with and can go get a real coach in the next few years and the return to Nolan glory stuff can be put to bed.

[Torqued pork]

This is Mike Anderson basketball.

You can drive by a pickup game and see kids playing with more passion and a higher basketball IQ than what you'll get all too often from MA teams.

Our best hope is AD Yurachek isn't a pillow fluffing milquetoast like Long.

[HogBreath]

This Nolan magic left many years before he did.

[atom hog]

This really is no surprise to me. Mike is a good guy, but never has had ability to out "X and O" anybody. Should have been let go 2 years ago. It simply shouldn't take this long to rebuild. I was almost ready to drink some Kool Aid, but knew deep inside this would happen. Has he lost he team already?

[rzrbkman]

6 seniors.

I could see us tanking to a convenience store record.

Watching the last 3 games, how can anyone see this team going .500 in SEC play? Unless Barford, Macon, and Gafford are all three on their game on the same night (i.e. Tennessee), we can't beat anyone (and we barely beat them).

[Kevin]

so what do you do with a coach that makes the ncaa tournament twice in 7 years, if this does happen

Fire his butt?

[bkjbearcat]

Mike Anderson should have been fired 2 years ago

But as guys like FCJ kept saying is, "If you fire Mike the whatever class is gone." In reality what would of happened is the ones who signed would of signed anyway. And MA being fired would of gave Perry the easy out to flip. In stead of bring up a sick father.

[PharmacistHog]

You start reading all the "you can't fire a coach that made the tournament the last one year out of two" threads.
