I predict TU will win this game , I also predict they will lose as well
I’m here and don’t think either team will win tonight.
Justin Moore is here watching a lot of empty seats and thus far a mediocre job against a mediocre team.
I’m hoping we have learned our lesson about keeping bad coaches
You never know until you know but playing it safe has rarely worked out well.
Guy's got a hectic job and 3 teenage kids, he needs some peace and quiet and alone time.
I don't know who can be successful at TU but I know for damn sure that Konkol can't.
Best coach will win the game, Another loss really sad. 11 and 19 conference 5 and 12.

That was about the most Konkol way to close out a game , hopefully this was his last game coaching at the Reynolds Center
Not yet. If he wins the last game, wins the conf tourney, and wins the NCAA tournament, he does it with 19 losses.
Winning anymore games will be a challenge. Teams are really keying on Odom…so they have to hit 3’s to have a puncher’s chance to beat the mediocre teams in this conference.
Really there is no way Konkol can come back next season.
I had high hopes for him but it just didn't work out. I am not too optimistic about our trajectory with a new coach but at least there will be an illusion of hope for a year or two.

Colder than a well diggers *** on the way home. There isn't a lot of difference between nine or 10 teams in this conference. The difference is coaching. Ours is insufficient.
I saw Moore talking to some folks in the courtside seats. I'm sure he needs to address the fans as to where we're going with basketball. He really needs to address the empty seats that used to hold fans.
Our guys played very hard so I can't really blame any of the players. The coaching staff which put together this team is responsible for the lack of success.
Another frustrating season comes to a close.

Came down to free throws, kids didn't give up
With a better qualified coach and a little more money, I still have high hopes that we can do something in this league. We are about ready for a home run hire. We have had six disappointing hires in a row.
It would be nice if he resigned and settled for half his payout for the final three years.
Six? Manning wasn’t really a disappointment. He did what some of our best coaches have done. He won and then peaced to a more blueblood program.
If we could have had 3 of him back to back, I would have been very happy.
I knew you would peace out on Manning when I typed out this post. Manning was a disappointment. He was just our best of 6 failures. He got out of here as soon as we were about to go to the AAC cuz he didn't think he could do it here, not in that conference. He was in a four way tie for 1st in a watered down CUSA when he high tailed it out of here. He didn't win in the NCAA or the NIT. He pales in comparison to Nolan, Tubby, and Self. If he had stuck around another couple of years, and continued to do as well in the AAC then he wouldn't have been a failure. He never considered himself our coach. He barely wore anything that said Tulsa on it. He considered himself on loan from Kansas until he could get a better job. Then he failed to turn it around at Wake Forest. He should have seen that it would have been just as hard to turn it around at Wake Forest, if not harder than it would be to maintain the level he was here in the AAC. Never did get us a big man of any consequence. I consider Steve Robinson a failure, and he had a better record here.

Amen. All he and his staff talked about was Kansas, even in their social media profiles
Manning was so meh. We dodged a bullet when he left. Unfortunately, we dodged right in front of a speeding bus.
I would pay him to coach again at Tulsa instead of Konkol.
Now, not a ton of money… but it would be very hard for him to be any worse.
Why? He'd be better, I bet along the lines of Frank, but not good enough. If we're not going to win at a high level, at least stick with the good guy, Konkol.
Konkol is 2+2=11. Frank was 2+2=9. Manning was 2+2=6. Sure, Manning was a little less wrong but he was still wrong. Let's shoot for the right guy rather than a guy was sucked a little less.
