So, I hear from a source inside the program that the two transfers from USC, and the one from UCLA all quit the team last night after practice. This season just keeps getting worse by the day! I sure hope the coach has a plan moving forward.

Thor's comment made me chuckle.

We needed the bodies but other than that, not much is lost.

Do we have enough players left to put five on the floor tonight?

Yep! Max and Jake were a disappointment anyway - good riddance. Ethan could have turned the corner. Too bad, wasted energy, wasted scholly, and wasted PT for others.
Dear Karma,

I have a list of people you missed...

I know everyone is a big Linder fan, but how much of this season is on his shoulders? What happens if Ike bounces and we're just as bad next year? At some point, the buck stops at the coach.

True, the buck stops with Linder.

That said, he has to have team standards, and enforce them to the highest level. He can't allow rules (whether conduct, grades, effort, etc.) to be bent or manipulated.

They didn’t play any defense anyway. Not a huge loss.

Unreal. What's left to happen? Honestly can't think of anything that this season as a whole compares to during my fandom.

From what I have heard this is just the beginning of what is to come, between players, coaches, and recruits, I would expect the program to look very different next year.

Well...I think the odds of Ike staying for next year just went from "not great" to "nonexistent".

Now, it just may be me, but has anyone else observed a better mood from Bohl since Linder's season cratered?

Are you expecting more players to quit?

It needs to look very different next year!! No complaints from this WYO fan on making it very different. I call it the #VicKoennigRule

I wonder if we’ll need to pull a sheep move and put up posters recruiting at half acre?

This is good news. Players that would quit midseason on their teammates, don’t want them.
