Well at least I won't miss any work.
I hope that happens. We NEED to beat them again this year to gain some much needed confidence.
Just have no confidence in this team anymore period . All season they have not performed when something was on the line. I just cannot for the grace of god understand last Sat's game. You have a chance to win something and you don't play as if you really wanted it.
I guess I'm the optimist. I am hopeful they turn it up a notch for the post season and play like we know they can. They have it in them.
Go CARDS!!
At the end of the 2012 regular season where the Cards were coming off back to back first round exits from the NCAAT and had just lost at home on senior night to South Florida, many of us had lost hope and had low expectations for the postseason. Then the light switch flipped on and that team made the final four. But that was under Pitino.
I know CCM is not Pitino but if he can pull off a good postseason run, it will alleviate many people's fears and restore faith in him from the doubters.
Mack can flip the script in the tournament. Until he does, I can understand people's doubts about him. I am an optimist as well though so I choose to hope the team goes on a run. They may not succeed but this time of year is like a whole new season. Everyone is 0-0 now.
Not one time have i lost faith in CCM . It's the team granted he's the coach but the players are the ones playing the game and they just don't and haven't shown any grit whatsoever. And i was in the stands that last home game of 2012 . And harpened back to that season . One glaring issue this team sure the hell isn't those guys. Peyton and Russ were beast.
The famous "i now know what i have" line uttered by you know who after the Senior night debacle. Cards proceeded to lose at Syracuse further inflaming Cards Nation.
The switch did flip as the Cards won 8 in a row reaching the Final Four against SuCkS.
Hope it happens.
Its ALL up to the players.
I totally agree with you on that. Despite the up and down season, the 2012 team had a fantastic back court along with Dieng anchoring the middle.
Nwora killed his own POY award. The rest was a team effort however it all goes hand in hand though .
I never lost faith because you have to earn faith over a period of time. Mack is a clean slate to me right now.
Rick had earned my faith and faith of fans, teams, and players all over the country. That’s the difference between 2012 and now, Mack’s never shown us he can win it all and Rick had shown he could win at a high level.
Cards are due for a good run in the ACCT. They've only won one game max- one game in Padgetts season and one game under Mack. Not sure if this is the year but it would be nice.
Don't start hedging now . Either they are or arn't which is it ? LOL Remember i praised yo for being part of the half full crew.
That's kind of where I'm at. It's the same team as last year, except last year had CC and this year has some talented freshmen. Same lack of mental toughness, similar late season collapse. A good season, especially with the circumstances surrounding the program, but as I've mentioned a few times now I would not be surprise if the Cards lose Thu night and again in the 1st round to end the season. Hope I'm wrong and would love to be. They struggle under the bright lights when it means it the most, with some exceptions here and there.
