At least he wasn't scared to engage the students and actually have a conversation with them.

We are gonna lose that dude. Lee is next level. Our moronic leadership will not value him or elevate him enough to keep him. He'll be gone within 2 years. He cares too much and works too hard. No way he is fitting in with the rest of the dept. They'll run him off like they did Brad Smith.

Good luck to the men tonight. Unfortunately with tonight's inclement weather I anticipate an unusually small crowd for a top 25 opponent.

[TrueBlue147]

Typical start. Careless turnovers and bad defense.

MT holding their own midway of 1st half.

Nice to see them turn it around after an ugly start. Good win!

 

[SpaceRaider]

Must be a nationally ranked team from south FLA losing to MT

Would be twice as many comments if we lost to UTSA. I understand losing $20 gets more of a reaction than winning $20, but you can’t complain about the admin not caring about bad losses if we don’t celebrate good wins. I had a feeling we would win this one. At home we are arguably the best team in CUSA. Just gotta fix those road games.

 

[MIDTENN05]

Ha, you can’t tell us what to do. We live to complain. Loss will be coming soon enough, they always do. Can’t wait!

 

[blueboro007]

Sad to celebrate a loss
