Rooting for Coach NMP today....

[Hanmudog]

Along with the Lady Dawgs of course. Need a good showing to settle the fan base a bit, myself included. Need to show signs of improvement and reverse this trend of doing just enough to win.

Hope I am wrong but I don’t think this game will be the cakewalk we are accustomed to with the LadyBearSharts.

 

[jdbulldog]

This team will only get better as the season moves along.

 

[Upyurs]

Not sure this team has it mentally. Plays soft. No hustle. Georgia has nowhere near the talent but only hung with them out of pure will. Gonna take more than talent against good teams.

 

[Apoplectic_Objurgator]

Uk over usc after 1 - they hold on and make me feel better about our team

 

[8dog]

KY is very good. No shame in that loss other than missing a resume win. But with no one hosting its not that big a deal

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

GAME ON!

 

[WilCoDawg]

It won’t be a blowout that we’re used to seeing apparently. This is where having no one there is hurting us.

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Nope!

....

 

[Hanmudog]

If Rickea Jackson does not get better then we are going to struggle every game. She is a liability so far today. She is way too talented to be playing this badly.

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Sort of an *** whipping, going right now.

 

[Hanmudog]

Whose *** is getting whipped?

 

[gwadSIG]

No offense or aggression. This coach is JoMo 2.0. It will be interesting to see where the culture of the program is heading.

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

I digress

 

[Dawgbite]

We won! Yet we’ve lost.

 

[WilCoDawg]

Barely pulled that win out. That was just a pathetic performance.

 

[Hanmudog]

Cooks, Jackson, and Mingo Young were nearly invisible today. Getting harder and harder to stay positive about Coach NCP.

 

[maroonmania]

Not sure what we do at practice but our women's team appears to be getting worse with every game played, not better.

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Nelle missed on this hire....

 

[RocketDawg]

I wonder if we considered the current Kentucky coach. She was just an assistant when Vic left and we needed a coach. She seems to be doing a pretty good job.

Looking at the coach's social media, it looks like she has a lot on her plate. Maybe practice isn't as important and/or she can't hold some of them accountable.

 

[RocketDawg]

Not sure what else is on her plate, but wasn't she hired to coach? Then she should be practicing and coaching.

 

[gwadSIG]

I'm being a little bit sarcastic. There's just a lot going socially and politically so maybe she/they are distracted. I don't know, but it just seems like some of these players have lost their edge. Maybe that's her coaching style. Guess we will see.

Are you speaking from experience?

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

If she is coach after the Covid is over, they will probably have to stop charging admission.

Well. There are ways to deal with those “distractions”. Shut off the medium of those distractions and concentrate on the task at hand.

I doubt any of the Engineering, Accounting, Math, Chemistry, etc. professors are letting those distractions factor into test scores. And they are making less than the WBB coach.

Honestly I don't know why any coach in any sport allows their players to post on Twitter during the season. Zero good can come of it and the players generally don't have the maturity level to deal with criticism.

If I was a coach I think I would just demand that they don't post anything on twitter related to the team, and if they did there would be consequences. I don't see an issue if they want to tweet about other things in their life.

Exactly. Engaging with fans in any way is generally not going to end well.

On a related note, I did notice a difference in our team's reaction after the game yesterday. After squeezing by Florida, there was a bit of clowning and dancing. After squeezing by Ole Miss, they did not look happy at all. That is the way they should look after playing awful against an inferior opponent, win or lose.
