What's this?

That’s great, but again has little

to do with the original focus of this thread.

I wish we had greater success as a team. It is likely Brooks’s coaching is a big part of losing those close games.

I just don’t think it follows from that that he doesn’t hate losing enough.

You suggested initially that he doesn’t hate losing enough. I simply pointed out that there’s no way to know that and losing isn’t evidence that someone doesn’t hate losing enough.

Now you seem to just want to argue for the sake of arguing.

I’ve remained consistent with my position — which is what I’ve reiterated again in this post.

I don’t really understand what your point is. Seems to keep changing.

He got his contract extension. He'll start to show concern around 2024. ** -- UEMcGill 01/24/2021 7:27PM

This criticism of coaches is always amusing. -- Pride_and_Joy 01/24/2021 6:34PM

So how long do you think any coach who acted like that would really last? ** -- VTCALS72 01/25/2021 08:17AM

I have no idea what your point is. -- Pride_and_Joy 01/25/2021 08:21AM

So 1-20 in games 5 points or less is just coincidental? Me thinks coaching ** -- ridgecreekhokie 01/24/2021 7:00PM

Where did I suggest it’s coincidental? ** -- Pride_and_Joy 01/24/2021 7:21PM

You didn’t, and it isn’t. Coaching competence would prevent it. ** -- ridgecreekhokie 01/24/2021 7:49PM

Sounds good but had nothing to do with my point. -- Pride_and_Joy 01/25/2021 12:31AM

Well let’s address your point...... -- ridgecreekhokie 01/25/2021 12:55PM

I never argued Brooks is competent. -- Pride_and_Joy 01/25/2021 1:34PM

So,if a fan thinks a coach is incompetent it is ok(not funny) to criticize? ** -- ridgecreekhokie 01/25/2021 1:53PM

Sounds good. -- Pride_and_Joy 01/25/2021 6:55PM
