BASKETBALL Coach McDevitt

[MT01]

Not sure why anyone couldn’t see this coming with the way they handled Stockstill.

Comfort. Easy. Status quo. Middle

Same situation. Different sport.

Crowds will be subpar. Energy will dwindle.

This is the infuriating part. I mean it’s one thing to make the mistake over and over as they continually find new ways to put lipstick on the pig with football. Now to do it again as BB attendance is clearly in decline is truly difficult to fathom. Like I said earlier this administration never ceases to amaze to find new excuses and ways to avoid making the right decision.

It’s why my support and money continues to be applied elsewhere. Boots was right from the get go.

Another infuriating part about this, is the secret extensions. If you believe it's the right move. Come out and own it. Hold a press conference or at least a press release announcing it. It's like they know it's wrong and don't want to take any heat for it, so they extend it quietly. It really adds alpt of creedince to the conspiracy theorist out there saying McPhee was put in place to sabotage MT and keep us in our place by the powers at be (UT alumni in government).

This is an excellent point, and further demonstrates how dumb M&M are

So why the multi-million $ investment in Murphy Center if administration is now content with crowds between 2,500-3,500.

 

[FranklinRaider315]

IDGAS anymore.

They know how to spend money but have no idea how to make money.
I don't believe they are anywhere near raising enough for major renovations. MC has become a dump.

Pretty much sums up what 90% of the MT fanbase feels.

Sorry about the Tigers. They had a good year.

 

[TRUEBLUE73]

The BOT and administration need to be replaced period! Then we go get coaches. If they don’t win they are fired. Cool aid drinking is for losers.

I personally asked Massaro for a timeframe on the Murphy Reno when I was at the Ladys game vs NMSU. At least year and a half to two years from starting.

Fundraising is not going like they hoped.

 

[MTOleBlue]

Wonder why that’s the case? (We all know why.)

 

[MidTennMtneer]

Fundraising is not going like they hoped.

And if so, it makes complete sense why. You go to your known lists to get the SAPC built. Thing is, you can't keep going to the same money. Eventually they say no.
And the two main sports of football and MBB haven't won enough to create new fans and new money options.

I've said, hell we all have, that our window to grow is small and if we don't win now in those two sports, money will pass us by. From conference affiliation, media deals, post season opportunities, and even donors.

Declare that they are not advocating the firing of Nick McDevitt.

Proceeds with a four page article why Nick McDevitt should be replaced.

The fact that everyone on here is so sure of themselves is what’s funny.

One thing I’ve learned about this board: no one here knows anyone or has any real insight to anything.

Speaking for yourself I see.

Poster: "I asked Massaro about this, and this is what he said."

You: "No one knows anyone or has any real insight."

LMAO

No. It’s the fact you have no clue why that timeline.

I would rather have any person on this forum as our University President and/or athletic director than the idiots we have in charge right now.

Literally anyone else but McPhee & Massaro. I truly don't believe McPhee & Massaro could have made worse decisions if they willfully tried to over the last 15 years. And I genuinely mean that in every sense of the statement with zero hyperbole. Absolute F'ing retards they are.

 

[MTOleBlue]

No. It’s the fact you have no clue why that timeline.

You mean why folks here are speculating that it’s probably because fundraising isn’t going well? Like what has happened with every other project?

The Baseball Stadium Disaster especially. 7wood should have been fired on the spot after that mess.

For some it's intentional. I'm not going to pull my money and then go asking for insider info. That's irrational. And frankly they are so bad at decision-making that 1) I already know what they're going to do and 2) I have no desire to talk to any of these people right now. I just sit back already knowing whatever the right action or decision is before them they will simply do the exact opposite. Who needs insider info to figure that out at this point?

 

[DisgruntledAlum]

What happened with the baseball stadium? I completely missed that part.

Not that anyone asked me but no comment. I have nothing more to say on this subject.

With tongue planted firmly in cheek, this screed certainly didn’t age well! Perhaps a go fund me to purchase a shock collar might be in order!😎😀

Touche. At the time I didn't. I thought this thread would die since no one really gives a shit anymore. And someone came on spouting hot garbage again a day later.

 

[blueboro007]

From comments here you would think we went 5-25 on the year. Sure I’m disappointed we did not win a championship but we won over 20 games with an exciting team that drastically improved from last year.
