If all you did was show "disappointment", we'd never be engaging each other in the first place.

Unless you're just not the type to bitch at and about college kids. Sure. They're not "kids." They're 18-22+....they're legally adults, they register for the service, they can vote, they can sue and be sued, they can be called for jury duty, and they're taking a $50,000 +/- scholarship annually to represent a Division 1 program. They can't hide behind "kids" anymore. The days of people telling them they're doing a good job even when they're not are long over. They have man-up, they have to take the criticism along with the accolades; otherwise, they shouldn't be out there.

Does the same "right to criticize" go for girls' field hockey too or only the high profile revenue sports?

From my side of this little tiff, if there wasn't whining about how our guys celebrated a buzzer beater, I would have just been silent. Certain posters have become flat out ridiculous and its either respond or just stop reading.

I think it is fair to criticize G and his assistants as well as Mills and Garland for failing hustle and play at a high level every game. Most of us thought they'd be much closer to Wichita State (somewhere in the top 25) than to bottom-dwelling Fordham. G must answer these questions for his team... Where are we? Can we beat Mason and Joe's? Can we win more than one game in Brooklyn?
Will G take charge of the off-season conditioning and shooting instruction the players get?

First, you are not saying that Mills and Garland failed to hustle are you? Second, G is responsible for all phases of the program. The players have weight lifting and shooting instruction almost all year round. Once the season ends they are allowed a certain number of hours of individual instruction (not to say that doesn't happen in season as well just to a much lesser degree).

Never let it be said that ignorance prevented Steve from posting..
