Per some quick digging I just did, 1997-98 Xavier (featuring James posey, among others) is the only team to ever beat us by 30+ twice in a season. This thoroughly average Mason team is on the verge of joining them
Brutal

I’d be hard pressed to give that half any higher than a B minus. Sorry but that’s the facts. that high? That was sarcasm I hope. Is there a grade lower than F?

Maybe we should have hired Legler...or Pete the Mortgage Guy.

So according to one graphic posted, it looks like we're playing Fordham on Wednesday.

Conventional hires unlikely to work here given the massive built-in disadvantages we have. Legler is a highly intelligent, overachieving guy with a large profile who is undervalued by every other program because he hasn’t spent a (meaningless) decade as an understudy to someone who knows less about the game than him or as a glorified bag man at a dirty program. He’d have been a home run hire and we’d actually be running an offense right now and have players who are showing improvement. Oh well. We made the expected hire and are getting the expected results.

with around 5-6 minutes left in the first half during a stoppage of play, the camera panned to one la salle player and two mason players yukking it up together.
if i was the coach, that player wouldn't see the floor again.

Nothing better than seeing us down 24 and Ash clapping his hands like we were doing a good job.

Ash has taught this team nothing in 23 games this year. He has developed no offense, no flow, and made no players better. Talk about stealing money.

Howard has to be out of his mind pressing this far down and against a team showing superior speed to La Salle's.

How does Baptiste handle this situation? School has no money to buyout ash. Ash will want a new contract. Does LaSalle run out his contract to save money on buyout? How will this play out if there is no turnaround. How do you rate this current administration? Is Baptiste over his head? I do not hear or see much from the athletic department

Talk about stealing money. Too far Why? The team is no better and probably worse. That is the definition of stealing money.

Why? The team is no better and probably worse. That is the definition of stealing money. It implies that the coach is not trying or doing his job. Sorry the results are bad. It’s a bad look to say that in my opinion, but you guys are pretty fired up that a bad team is going to lose again.

I think this plays out that we have a season next year much like this one and we part ways with Ash.
La Salle won’t buy out two years but will buy out 1 year. Hopefully Bradshaw has some favorable language in Ash’s contract. We desperately need to get out as soon as we can.
Hire a lower level head coach who has been successful and willing to recruit gym rats and plays a particular system.

When you go from 9th to 10th to 12th in the league, when you lose to the bottom feeders, when you get blown out by a middling team by 30 points twice in the same season, and when you arent retaining and developing talent...you aren't doing your job.

I think this season we have seen some of the worst basketball in the last decade of La Salle basketball, and that is saying something.

Does Ash coach? We are 85 games or so in to his tenure and we make the same mistakes we made in year 1. Take shots we can get with 5 seconds on the shot clock Get beat off the dribble constantly and no help defense Play way too fast and out of control We are not getting better. I wanted to give him until next year but I think I may have my answer already. Sad but true. That’s where I am. I believed that Howard was the obvious choice 3 years ago. I was wrong. Maybe this can be wrapped up by Colleen on her way out the door. This would save the new President from having to to this. If we can’t pay Ash off than we really must be in horrible shape.
