Seems to me that our basketball team, including the coaching staff are all "too nice".
Everytime a player or Heath address an issue it's always a calm, "oh shucks" attitude.  They never seem to get upset over anything.   Get out rebounded....."oh well"....failure to score..."it was an off night"....failure to make freethrows...."we will shoot more in practice".
I want someone to get pissed off and take some of this personally.  Somebody please step up and take the blame and make a promise to do more!  Somebody needs to step up and take this team on their back with an attitude!  We need some nastiness like Greg Skullman, Rosie Wallace, Darryl Walker etc....somebody that will dare someone to knock the chip off their shoulder!
Enough of this holding hands and singing "kum bah ya" after the games!

Yeah, we need to do a 180 and pull a Temple by sending non-key players we could call 'goons' out to make a statement...  ;D

BINGO BINGO BINGO -

You win my "observation of the day" award.

This is precisely Heath's problem.  He's not coaching heart.  Full Court Presses are nothing more than desire to win in action.  We aint got it.  I don't know what the answer is.....

The team takes on the personality of its head coach. you look at Heath on the sidelines and he looks lost and beaten. Is it any wonder this team quit and the end of last year

Clint McDaniel and the attempt to kick a field goal with an opponents' knutsack at Alabama.....instant classic.
"That's why you want something a little different", says Nutt entering his 9th season on the hill.
"You look at Florida last year," Nutt says.  "They struggled with their offense because of change...overhaul change.  Change is hard."

I tell you who I saw a little bit from.  McCurdy.  I forget the game but he shoved a guy to the ground and the guy got up and wanted to fight.  McCurdy laughed and walked away and stuck his tongue out. 
We need some more of that!

Yes....

PT for McCurdy is a must if we want to make it two rounds deep.  Maybe even to get there.

While were on the subject of toughness...why does charles thomas seem to get hurt in every game?

Remember when he was "knocked out".  Shaffer said "Ill bet he will return before this game is over".  I dont know how "hurt" he is when he goes down.  He is a drama queen from what I have seen.

Cause he's the only one diving for balls and giving up skin for the cause.

He takes more charges than any big man I have ever seen.

Thomas/Ferguson and maybe McCurdy are the only players that I see playing with emotion. Am I the only person that thinks ferguson might shank someone on any play?

This is still the only website I view at work that makes me laugh out loud at least once a day...I wish instead of a Legends in the Rock with Corliss this year, do you think he, Beck, and McDaniel will come put on a Big Nasty clinic?  We would be a WHOLE lot different team with Thomas, Townes and Hill having that kind of attitude. 

Still laughing though.  Ferguson shanking someone....Have to give out karma for that one, and that is something special as I have only given it out less than 10 times....Kudos...

We need some "Nolan".

Boots, attitude, competitiveness, desire, and lots of defense.

Stan has given "40 minutes of hell" a whole new meaning.   Sometimes it's pure hell to sit thru it!

a few games ago CT was knocked unconscious, went to the locker, came back and played. takes a lot of charges--prolly the toughest guy on the team

Greg Skulman! Thank you for mentioning him.  That guy was tough as nails - I forgot about him.  All-time "toughest" basketball players?  Darrell Walker is on the list.  Remember Linzie Howel (pardon the spelling)?  He was always super tough.  Joe Klein was a bruiser.  Scott Hastings got in a fight with Olajuwon and Moses Malone.  Who was the tough little point guard? Arlin Bowers?
Did you hear about the dyslexic agnostic with insomnia? He laid awake all night wondering if there really was a dog.

modica's, ferguson, & jefferson's face,  all over in their crap just once??

Hey all, new member here. I completely agree that we need nastiness and emotion out on the court. I really only see it in McCurdy. Oh and speaking of past Razorbacks that showed some nastiness... I am surprised no one has mentioned Derek Hood. He wasn't the greatest scorer but the guy was a monster on the boards and an absolute warrior. I wish we had someone like him on this team. :razorback:
